Illustration Friday - Sour
The banana was unripe and bitter, The chicken was half-cooked and meaty,
The wine was old and sour,
And I am out of ideas.
I think I'll light some Roman Candles.

Still life. Oil on canvas. One of my earliest palette knife paintings done in 1982 or was it 1983?
Colored pencil on 9"x12" Bristol Board.
Wait!
Update:
I can call this post "Sweet and Sour Chicken". What do you think?
(Although our grapefruits down here are sweet.)

Love that illo. And I like the way your brain works.
Thank goodness, someone loves my brain! :-)
cute poem, ces... very apropos the painting :)
Laughingwolf, thanks. Hope your day is fine and dandy.
awesome painting Ces...lovely work!!! I wish you a Happy July 4th Dearest Friend!!!
Dear Diana, thanks for stopping by. Loved visiting you and finding everything perfect!
thx... got to pick up a few groceries, then i can pretty much do as i please ;)
Nice work!
love the colors and the flattened perspective of this piece! Delicious :)
Have fun Laughingwolf.
DigitalSctott, thank you.
Studio Lolo, flattened alright. I wanted it to look primitive. :-)
And I like the way you 'divided up' the page. Good colours.
Oh yes Connie, a little html knowledge is a dangerous thing :-)
sweet n sour chicken? only in florida, you say? pity lol
i like that piece :)
no fun, but got coffee cream, 5# macaroni, beans, tomatoes, and some magazines; one on cars, other on special diets [lost 9# so far]
Yum yum including the car magazines. I went to the BMW plant in South Caolina and they had beautiful classic cars and a new one they built for only $92,000.00.
I like the idea of Sweet and Sour Chicken! Beautiful artwork Ces :)
Thanks Anon, old stuff. Still trying to get new things moving.
nice, but the new z4 will no longer be made in s.carolina, the plant is to be moved back to germany....
Is that so? That's a shame. That is a nice plant in Spartanburg. It will cost even more so with shipping due to high gas prices.
sweet 'n sour chicken sounds perfect! :D
yeah, no doubt
the plant stays, i think, but dunno what they'll assemble next
ha ha lovely illo, and great title too. often see your comments on different blogs, think it's time i 'connected' with you!
Ujwala, yes sweet and sour chicken is always good. Thanks for stopping by.
Laughingwolf, it would be interesting to know. I know that the plant supports the local economy. I wonder if they are laying off workers. This spring we could not tour because they were retooling.
Foreveryoung, thanks for stopping by. I have always loved your "Giggles" posts.
i have no clue what's going in there next, but retooling suggests it will keep most folk employedcovfikz
damn verifier! grrrrrrrr
i like it! in fact i love it! How could I not? it was made by you :)
It's great!What an interesting lady you are.
Hope you enjoyed the roman candles!
Laughingwolf, okay. I took away the word verifier. I did not have it before then I got spammed when I posted the NYC tour series.
Val, I am so tickled everytime I see you here. Thanks.
Thank you Roberta. Are you allowed to light up firworks in your area?
I love the poem and I truly appreciate the illustration! Great work!

i was told i had both verifier and screen in place, so got rid of the verifier... only one post so far i did not allow, some guy wanting to sell something, so i did not allow his post
Doesn't sound very appetizing to me. I ate out every day when I was in France. Only once I chose a restaurant where the quality was poor. I told them, or course.
Good paintings!
