illustration friday (kernel)
















I've often thought that corn-on-the-cob looks like a wide mouth full of teeth. Surely I'm not the only one?

  4. うまいこといいますねー。
    いわれれば、そうやーとおもうけど、
    そういう発想ってなかなかでてこない。
    やはり、でびーさんは、ふつうの目じゃないわ。
    いつも、笑ってしまう。
    きょう、ともだちのこどもがね、tooth fairyに手紙
    を書いたのをみせてもらった。あなたは、おとこですが、おんなですか。あっているほうに丸をつけてくださいって。男、女って、英語でかいてあるの。
    大笑いした。
    女だとおもいこんでいたけど、こどもってピュアに疑問をもつ。
    そういう心をもう、とうのむかしに無くてしている自分に気をつかせてくれるのがデビーさんよ。いつもとても、おもしろい。

  5. I read your comment on Leah's blog about holding the brush in etegami. Goodness, your movements are so fluid and steady then. Etegami will probably be a great challenge for me. I love your corn, I love corn and you always capture these vegetables that make me want to go grocery shopping and prepare them@

  9. No...you are not the only one--and it is so fitting that we cook them and then attack with OUR sets of teeth! Love this illo!!

  10. That thought used to give me pause when I was little. But a pat of butter on the cob usually got me over it pretty quickly.
