She Hates Turnips

imagined by: James Mathias

Trudy hated turnips, but she ate them anyway, although, she did so with fury coursing through her veins.

Drawn on printer paper with a BIC mechanical pencil, using my memory of an elephant and turnip, scanned into Photoshop CS2 resized and saved for web.

This was suggested by Tim Martin of Involver when asked via YIM, “What should I draw today?” His response came almost immediately “An elephant… Eating turnips” I laughed and started straight away.

Enjoy and see you tomorrow.

Who knows maybe I’ll contact you via and IM and ask; “What should I draw today?”

You know the score, keep it clean and on topic. “Spammers” & “trolls” are decimated on sight.

I think you did extremely well with this, good work. The elephant really expresses that she doesn’t like turnips, and i like how you’ve used the traditional human way of showing dislike towards food through an elephant. Well done. =)
