I personally choose to believe that Bruce's washscrub (?? Idfk what it's called in English but it's the net sponge things) is pink for no reason beyond the fact I think he should have more pink in his life. 🤷🏽‍♂️

For my first negotiated project, I did a series of illustrations related to Aesop Fables. My initial goal was to produce a series of colour plate illustrations based on scenes from well-known fables; with a border to accompany each one. For me, the stories of Aesop have managed to stand the test of time like any good story is because of the morals he presented. These stories are not only easy enough for anyone to understand, but they had characters with situations we could learn from. The appeal of them comes from some of them being anthropomorphic creatures and how exaggerated their settings were. By representing these fables with my artistic style, I used these fables as a way to develop my use of narrative, it gave me a chance to work with morals and how to depict them in interesting ways. I would also use them as a way to develop my use of composition in scenery. I worked hard on this project and I'm proud of what came out of them. They were a simple step into illustrating well-known stories, and hopefully, they'll springboard me into adapting other classic literature.
The Tortoise and the Hare
I certainly made the colours much warmer in the piece, which I feel gives  the scenery a summer like atmosphere. I put some emphasis on the tones in some areas, though I wish I would have worked more on the bottom right corner. I think the moral of this fable would also apply to the production of this product; because it wouldn't have been successful had I just rushed everything.
The Fox and the Stork
My interpretation of the Fox and the Stork, in which a Stork attempts to give a mean spirited fox a taste of his own medicine (or meal). This scene would depict the Fox's struggle to eat like the Stork, who indulges in his own revenge. The best part of this for me was experimenting with the bright contrasting colours with the characters. I also decided to give the vases different designs for the same purpose, for example, the fox's vase is made as pottery from ancient Greece. The image on the pot of the woman eating grapes was made to allude to the fable "The Fox and the Grapes". 
It just felt great to do a piece with animal characters, it was also the first time I've done a piece of artwork based on the story I could remember. 
The Boy who Cried Wolf
Pretty much everyone has heard of this story, there have been many variations of the fable to the point that 'crying wolf' would become a saying. It's the original "don't lie" story, and it's just as effective now as it was when it was first written. I wanted to apply details to parts of the piece from the cliffs to the sheep's wool, in terms of the colour palette I wanted to add a variety of tones and make them much richer. 
The Lion and the Mouse
You may be wondering why there's an abundance of space around the characters, well I did put in a background, but my tutors didn't think it was working out; so I had to take it out. I suppose that the background should have less detail than what's in the foreground; then the latter would stand out more. Speaking of which, to tell the truth, I spent more time sketching out the pattern of the net around the lion; which was still good experimentation of detail.
Tell me if I did justice to the original fables.

[moving in a two-frame flapping mouth animation because I am in a no-budget ONA] I better see some small juicy apples when I land in Minnie Appleis 🤨
TRANSLATOR'S NOTE: "Minneapolis" is derived from the Dakota term "mni" which means "water", therefore the emphasis on "juicy" is intended as further wordplay
DIRECTOR'S COMMENTARY: We thought the simplicity of the joke would be a hit with the audience, but it was only after the scene had been animated that we noticed a fatal flaw: the "polis" of "Minneapolis" translates to "city"...indicating that she was going to "the city of small juicy apples". "Why would she not expect to see small juicy apples in the city of small juicy apples?" Takagawa-san had asked me....perhaps the lowest point of my career.
VOICE ACTRESS NHK VARIETY SHOW INTERVIEW: I was very grateful for this opportunity, it was the hardest, but most rewarding role I've ever had in my career. When it was over, I found myself heavily depressed, but my fans cheering me on across the net inspired me to keep going.
MANGA ADAPTATION BY THIRD RATE ARTIST/WRITER COMBO: [capturing none of the original's flare] Wa-ha~! I hope I get to eat big Red apples in Minneapolis

Food on St Patrick's Day (in the USA)...
...is usually Corned Beef & Cabbage, which is the Irish-American version of the original Irish boiled bacon & cabbage, but while the celebratory Irishness is still going strong, try something a bit more authentic.
A nice warm coddle. Not cuddle, coddle, though just as comforting in its own way. (Some sources suggest it's a hangover cure, not that such a thing would ever be necessary at this time of year, oh dear me no.)
Coddle is a stew using potatoes, onions, bacon, sausages, stout-if-desired / stock-if-not, pepper, sage, thyme and Time.
You'll often see it called "Dublin Coddle", but my Mum made Lisburn Coddle lots of times, I've made West Wicklow Coddle more than once, and on one occasion in a Belgian holiday apartment I made Brugsekoddel, which is an OK spelling for something that doesn't exist in any cookbook.
*****
I do remember one amendment I made to Mum's recipe, which met with slight resistance at the time and great appreciation thereafter.
Her coddle was originally cooked on the stove-top, not in the oven, and nothing was pre-cooked. Potatoes were quartered, onions were sliced, bacon was cut into chunks and then everything went into the big iron casserole, then onto the slow back ring, and there it simmered Until Done.
However, the bacon was thick-cut back rashers, and the sausages were pork chipolatas.
Raw, they looked like this:
Tumblr media
...and the bacon looked like this:
Tumblr media
Cooked in the way Mum initially did, they looked pretty much the same afterwards. The sausages didn't change colour. Nor did the bacon.
While everything tasted fine, the meat parts always looked - to me, anyway - somewhat ... less than appealing. "Surgical appliance pink" is the kindest way to put it, and that's all I'm saying. This is apparently "white coddle" and Dubs can get quite defensive about This Is The Way It SHOULD Look.
I'm not a Dub, so I persuaded Mum to fry both the bacon and sausages first, just enough to get a bit of brown on, and wow! Improvement! I remember my Dad nodding in approval but - because he was Wise - not saying anything aloud until Mum gave it the green light as well.
Doing the coddle in the oven, first with lid on then with lid off, came later and met with equal approval. So did using only half of the onion raw and frying the other half lightly golden in the bacon fat.
Nobody quoted from a movie that wouldn't be made for another decade, but there was a definite feeling of...
Tumblr media
*****
There are coddle recipes all over the Net: I've made sure that these are from Ireland to avoid the corned-beef-not-boiled-bacon "adjustment" versions which are definitely out there. I've already seen one with Bratwurst. Just wait, it'll be chorizo next.
Oh, hell's teeth, I was right. And from RTE...
Returning to relative normality, here's Donal Skehan's white coddle and his browned coddle with barley (I'm going to try that one).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's Dairina Allen's Frenchified with US measurements version. (I feel considerably less heretical now.)
Tumblr media
And finally (OK, not Irish, but it references a couple of the previous ones and is a VERY comprehensive write-up, so gets a pass) Felicity Cloake's Perfect Dublin Coddle (perfect according to who, exactly...?) in The Guardian.
Tumblr media
*****
Returning to the beginning, and how boiled bacon became corned beef (a question which prompted @dduane to start an entire website...!)
The traditional Irish meat animal for those who could afford it was the pig, but when Irish immigrants (even before the Great Famine) arrived in the USA, they often lived in the same urban districts as Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe.
For fairly obvious reasons pork, bacon and other piggy products were unavailable in those districts, but salt beef was right there and far cheaper than any meat Irish immigrants had ever seen before.
Insist on tradition or eat what was easy to find? There'd have been contest - and do I sometimes wonder a bit if sauerkraut ever came close to replacing cabbage for the same reason.
The pre-Famine Irish palate liked sour tastes: a German (?) visitor to Ireland in the mid-1600s wrote about about what were called "the best-favoured peasantry in Europe", and mentioned that they had "seventy-several sour milks and creams*, and the sourer they be, the better they like them."
* Yogurt? Kefir? Skyr? Gosh...
Corned beef and Kraut as the immigrants' celebratory "Irish" meal for St Patrick's Day? Maybe, maybe not.
Time for "Immigrant Song" (with kittens).
youtube
*****
Corned beef got its name from the size of the salt grains with which the beef was prepared. They were usually bigger than kosher salt, like pinhead oats or even as large as grains of wheat, and their name derived originally from "corned (gun)powder", the large coarse grains used in cannon.
BTW, "corn" has been a generic English term for "grain" for centuries, and "but Europe didn't have corn" is an American mistake assuming the word refers to sweetcorn / maize, which it doesn't.
Lindsey Davis, author of the "Falco" series, had a couple of rants about it and other US-requested "corrections". As she points out, mistakes need corrected but "corn" is not a mistake, just a difference in vocabulary.
*****
In Ancient and Medieval Ireland pig would have included wild boar, the hunting of which was a suitable pastime for warriors and heroes, because Mr Boar took a very dim view of the whole proceeding and wasn't shy about showing it (see "wild boar" in my tags and learn more).
Cattle were for milk, butter, cream and little cattle; also wealth, status, and heroic displays in their theft, defence or recovery. It's no accident that THE great Irish epic is "The Cattle-Raid of Cooley" / Táin Bó Cúailnge (tawn / toyn boh cool-nyah).
Killing a cow for meat was ostentation on a level of lighting cigars with 100-, or even 500-, currency-unit notes. Once it had been cooked and eaten there'd be no more milk, butter, cream or little cattle from that source, so eating beef was showing off And Then Some.
Also, loaning a prize bull to run with someone else's heifers was a sign of great friendship or alliance, while refusing it might be an excuse for enmity or even war. IMO that's what Maeve of Connaught intended all along, picking undiplomatic envoys who would get drunk and shoot their mouths off so the loan was refused and she, insulted, would have an excuse to...
But I digress, as usual. Or again. Or still... :->
*****
For the most part, "pig" mean "domestic porker", and in later periods right up to the Famine, these animals were seldom eaten.
Instead, known as "the gentleman who pays the rent", the family pig ate kitchen scraps and rooted about for other foods, none of which the tenant had to grow or buy for them. These fattened pigs would go to market twice a year, and the money from their sale would literally pay that half-year's rent.
For wealthier (less poor?) farmers, pigs had another advantage. Calves arrived singly, lambs might be a pair, but piglets popped out by the dozen. A sow with (some of) her farrow was even commemorated on the old ha'penny coin...
Tumblr media
What with bulls, chickens, hares, horses, hounds, pigs, salmon and stags, the pre-decimal Irish coinage is a good inspiration for some sort of fantasy currency.
But that's another post, for another day.
