Here's your chance to really bring on the linework, my fellow sketch artisans. Pros such as Kim and greenheron might find this too easy, but let them also bring a recipe or two along for the fun of it.
After all, we are under attack, big time, this afternoon, and must rally. To keep our spirits up, I have chosen this here drawing exercise. Hopefully, it will help to drown out the spammers here on OS.
Sharpen that pencil, greenheron, all you want, but you'll have to work that pencil to a nub in order to keep ahead of the game!
Here's my recipe with drawing: A Spamburger!
You'll find its source (along with lots of other recipes) here:
http://www.spam.com/recipes/lightened-up-spamburger-hamburgers
Ingredients
- 1 (12-ounce) can SPAM® Lite, cut into 4 slices
- 1/4 cup reduced-calorie mayonnaise or salad dressing
- 4 hamburger buns or Kaiser rolls, split
- 4 (1-ounce) slices light American cheese
- 4 leaves lettuce
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1
In large skillet, cook SPAM® Lite until lightly browned.
- 2
Spread mayonnaise on cut sides of buns. Place SPAM®, cheese, lettuce and tomato on bottom halves of buns. Cover with top halves of buns.
Have at, all you spam-dueling artisans! Sharpen that graphite till it may pierce to the very heart of spamdom!
Arrrrrrr!

dunniteowl: A wee spammer popinjay might be funny. Wish you could join in the drawing fun!
Wait! Have you a digital camera? One which may upload into your laptop?
Just a thought.....
Rated for making me smile.
Won't you at least try one of your own Spam recipe? Just a teeny weeny lil' ol' sketcheroony?
Phyllis: I don't care if anyone's drawing is perfect or childishly scrawled on a bathroom wall. The point is to make a point about the spam clogging the Feed! Make a collage....do n abstract expressionistic version of the visceral response to spammers. Build sculpture out of marshmallow fluff--I do not care. Just make something in protest--anything would be nice!
Pretty please with you fave action adventure flick on it?

"I don't want any Spam!"
LOL
"Landscape with Spam"
Hmmmmmm.....

older/exasperated: Too bad about the sharp objects.
Wait! No EP! Not even jokingly, please! LOL
After all, greenheron and Kim Gamble have yet to join the fray.
Now THERE are two EP worthy artists.
But thanks for the positive strokes, all the same....

I love the subject but I love your drawing even more.
Is oc linework smackdown the tag ?
I tried, but wasn't as subtle as you.
Seriously, that is one beautiful drawing !
Great ( & timely ) challenge, thank you.
Where's your post?
I am so little the artist that I don't even own a pencil!
I do, however, own a good appetite and offer my gourmand services to all you budding spam chefs. You cook 'em up an' I'll put 'em down!
Great fun blog Po' Woman; keep 'em comin'.....

Time to highlight the spam problem so OS staff finally get the point. We take back the feed all weekend wit our anti-spam slogans and fun posts, rating each other's posts to keep the feed running more smoothly.
Try it!You may enjoy it!
;)
Nice! Excellent sesame seed re-creation. : )
Now...c'mon..how 'bout an anti-spammer post from you?
:)
wink,wink ; )

Kate! So good to see you here tonight, my friend! I wasn't going to check in again, yet couldn't sleep (new dog in neighborhood, doing the worried barking thing that new dogs do)I'm glad i came back by!
:)
Now...your challenge is to find a recipe you would like to draw, and then get cracking, lady, as soon as you have time enough to do so!
But will you?
I really hope you'll try!
:)
Hope you enjoy your family time this weekend, and that the weather holds.

personal issues re. spam, when i was force fed it by my
Mother, who was indeed the psychological bad mother at dinner.
luckily, we had Joseph. our doggy. he seemed to like
it when i dropped it surreptitiously on the floor.
new dogs. such damn fools, these dogs.........sorry about
this canine situation. It is not frivolous to say
that a dog is messing up your sleep.
Gal needs her sleep.
Wish I could have me own mutt to love......
Now...where's yours, my dear?Hmmmm?
