iFriday weekly word: "farm". (medium: acrylic)

Vegetable Illustration

This was actually done for a story on "big vegetables" grown in Alaska and shown at the Alaska State Fair. The size of the cabbage in comparison to the man is not far off in size according to what was grown except the weight might be a bit more then he could carry.

Winning Veggies:
Green cabbage weight:
105.60lbs in 2000
Pumkin weight: 942lbs in 2005
Rutabaga weight: 75.75lbs in 1999
Corn weight: 4.20lbs in 2000
Watermelon weight: 168.60lbs in 2005

Nice work! I like your use of the heavily textured gesso base coat; it really brings some character to an already interesting style.

Great image! Just like Jana, I'would like to know this farmer - then he would have one more customer...!

Great illustration. Farming is a growth industry, this farm might be in a bubble though.
