Sunny side up eggs and bacon sketch by John LeMasney via 365sketches.org #cc-by #creativecommons #illustration<\/p><\/div>\n

Today’s sketch is a face made of two sunny side up<\/a> eggs with a side of bacon. I love me some breakfast, and with the holidays come some pretty good ones traditionally. With the face theme, I just figured I’d have some fun with eggs. In Inkscape<\/a>, I used the Bezier tool to make an outline of the egg, slightly blurred (not shirred<\/a>) and put two yellow ellipses (and white highlight ellipses), converted to paths and tweaked them with the node tool for the yolky eyes. I then took a wavy path, applied a simple pattern to the path, then converted to a path and colored it in for the bacon.\u00a0 Then I added some streaks of various colors for the marbling. I duplicated the bacon and flipped it, since I have never seen two pieces of identical bacon, and don’t know anyone who eats one piece of bacon with two eggs. Finally, I duplicated the layered pieces of bacon and made them gray and blurred, then sent them to the back to create an underlying shadow for some depth. Fun and tasty looking.<\/p>\n
