Well, my original idea for this theme was a kid with tousled hair looking up at a great big plate of pancakes, but I just couldn't seem to get it on paper. So I drew this fellow (based on no one in particular).
He looks about like I feel while eating breakfast- still droopy-eyed with messy hair, reading whatever's handy and trying to wake up with coffee and something sweet. I am NOT a morning person!
After I finished him, I decided to try my original idea one more time, because I loved it so much, but this time from a different perspective and using a different style character, just to see....

Head on over to Hot Toast and Jam to check out all the other visions of "breakfast"!
I'm glad you didn't give up on your original idea - it is such a fun drawing :)
ReplyDeleteThe top drawing is an accurate representation of a lot of sleepy people trying to start their days I'm sure!
Very cool to see 2 different approaches.

It is perfect. I am behind today. I let the date slip up on me. Love the cartoon style.

I love both your drawings and certainly identify with the first one. I'm not a morning person either!
ReplyDeleteThese are great. The first one reminds me of my husband, he's always got WSJ and NYT glued to his hands in the morning!
ReplyDeleteI love the nose on the last one! hee, too cute.
I like them both. The kid with the pancakes reminds me of my son. He could eat pancakes for every meal! :-)
ReplyDeleteThey are both great and so completely different in style. I love the eyes as big as saucers on the second one.
ReplyDeletevery cute pieces!!!
ReplyDeletetoo cute! The first guy reminds me of the way Charlie Brooker has been going around lately with his 5 o'clock shadow. Too fun
ReplyDeleteTwo adorable sketches. Love that man at the breakfast table... he's huggable. And pancakes..that's right up my alley!!!!
