“I love when you smell like butter!” Apr 19, 2011by amanda1 Comment

This scene was inspired by a quote from a movie. The woman works at a bakery and when she runs in to her ex-husband, he can’t help saying “I love when you smell like butter.” My indulgent passion for food made me want to take that piece of dialogue and do something fun with it. As a result I drew butter incarnate, a woman in melty yellows baking and being swept off her feet.

 

I particularly love her necklace with sprinkles in it…did I mention I have a fetish for detail while I’m drawing?
