illustration friday (breakfast)
Last week a good friend of mine brought me a whole bunch of free-range, organic eggs and summer vegetables from her garden. I was trying to come up with a good theme for a thank-you card, when this week's IF topic was announced. What I decided to draw was a traditional Japanese breakfast. A porcelain bowl of steaming rice with a raw egg on top and a ceramic dish of pickles (mini-eggplants, daikon radish slices, and radish greens). I'm sending this off to my friend today. The accompanying words say "a Japanese breakfast."
