A quick one for IF's "Sugary" theme. First time in ages I've done one specifically for IF... and possibly the first time ever that Pepto Bismol Pink has figured so prominently in my palette!

Awesome illustration!
I was feeling like that cupcake face on weekend
after some over the top drinking with friends.
Pepto Bismol is magic too!
Wonderful! I really like you choice of color and the moodiness of this piece.
grumble grumble.
I love all of this piece:colours,idea,mood,ambient,lines..still...a very great illustration, c'est trés chouette!
Thanks for the heads up on the breadstick issue. It has been resolved. Now Firefox users can vote for Senator Toast too! :)
Yay, you saw Senator Toast! And you're right, the opponent has attacked his patriotism and got him in quite a jam. :|
Question - Can you tell me more about the Darwin image from your site? Was it published? Was it sold? Can I buy it? :)

Gorgeous modeling. Love this guy's facial expression!
He looks like he's in a bit a pain there! Could it be too much sweets....
You've captured the feeling perfectly.
This would make a great illustration in a folder for diabetics! the green and Pepto pink really set each other off!
one word to show my feeling
"mesmorizing"

Another beautiful piece! It's nice to see someone on IF REALLY take the time to make something amazing.... and to do it so consistently! Great job Leah!
Ow! I can feel the burn! dig your take on the theme!
Wow... really enjoy your technique, would love to see the process. you can achieve such detail on such a small canvas, regardless of pepto pink. =)
it's so beautiful - like your whole blog!
I love his little legs! I tell friends that my weekend eating habits are based on the theory of consequences based learning :)
It is a form of camouflage. Like moths that emulate their toxic cousins. Cupcakes that look sweet will leave behind fewer descendants.
