Description So it's october! There are a few challenges going around focusing on generally the same idea: draw one thing for every day of the month. autodesk-sketchbook has their own version going on, but I'm feeling incredibly lazy right now and didn't feel like dealing with the argument my computer and tablet are having. So, I took these prompts from an artist group I'm part of on facebook and ran with it! All of the drawings will be done traditionally, but I may revisit some later on and make them into prettier digital paintings.

Anyway, the ninth prompt was "Eyeball." I originally had the idea of having a severed eye lying on a medical tray in focus, while having someone (a mad scientist more than likely) extracting the other one from a strapped down victim with the victim screaming in the background out of focus, but I had just spent close to 10 hours on the Hunter, it was 5AM and I just wanted something simple. I googled references for the eye, and one of the search results was of two eyeballs in a red liquid (presumably blood) in a wine glass. The perspective was from the top looking down. This got me thinking: Martini for a Cannibal. The martini came to mind specifically because of the olives. I figured that if I put the eye in the olive's place, it would work. So, then I was searching references for martinis, and up came one of a pomegranate and something or other martini, that looked perfect. So I used it as my reference, along with one of the eyeballs I had picked out earlier. 

It's basic. I like my first idea better, but it does the trick. 

Tools: .07 Mechanical graphite pencil, crayola coloured pencils, and copy paper (Because I'm cheap)
