Artist's Comments

This is a new one for my drawing class... I actually just finished this a few hours ago. I didn't really know what I wanted to draw, so I decided to finally redo "Make Tea, Not War" because it seemed to be a bit more popular than some of my other drawings.

There is a bit of subtle contradiction in this one for humor effect, but that's about it.

18x24 inches... Charcoal.

edit** I fanned out the steam a little more, and fixed a little perspective on the cup and table. I would've done more, but the fixative I used refused to let me erase anything.

ps... I almost gave up on this one, but I was advised to keep working on it. I'm glad I did.

Thank you. It's more or less a spin-off of John Lennon's "Make Love, Not War."

Oh, I know karate all right...and about six other Chinese words...

I'd love you to check out my gallery *puppy eyes*...though I must warn you, your eyes may bleed...

Yeah... I'd say so... I felt that I had to do something because I would get a little disgusted with myself every time I looked at the old one.

The most amazing part is that I used a visual reference for the first one, and for this one, I didn't use a single reference... 100% straight from my head.

My professor told me to touch up a few things here and there, so I might resubmit this when I do to see if anyone notices, but this'll have to do for now I guess.

Thank you. I always appreciate getting a comment or two from you, no matter how late they come. A good cup of tea does the soul much good. Pretty much, the first word of advice I give to anyone, regardless of the issue is, "drink tea." It's never done me wrong.
