Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. Also Pictured: Death

Very original submission. I love what you've done with the faces and I personally think that this design would look best within either the black, or (if you can) a light blue/grey. I wouldn't match the colors of your design with it's background. A fork and knife on the shoulder is AWESOME though. Maybe beneath your design you would put "Breakfast is Served".

Like this.

No fork and knife.

Yes! The food with faces will have a lot of annoying people bitching, but who cares since this is awesome!

amoania on Jan 15 '07

fork and knife for sure!

ekaj47 on Jan 15 '07

i like that its not "cute" food with faces

chelly on Jan 15 '07

well done (pun not intended)

FWF!

The faces are realistic, which gives the shirt a real true-to life feel. I found it interesting trying to figure out which food represents which stage. Somehow to me, it makes sense that toast is bargaining, but it doesn't make sense that chocolate milk is anger. I'm actually quite happy when I drink chocolate milk...

But that's beside the point. That is the wonder of this shirt. $5 all the way, and yes I would get this. And BTW, I would say go for the fork and knife as well.

love fork and knife!

xyu on Jan 15 '07

I thought it was orange juice.

Petanca on Jan 15 '07

I like the realistic-looking faces in such an unrealistic situation

thomasucks on Jan 15 '07

the toast is the coolest!

fotofiend on Jan 15 '07

excellent drawing and great idea. i love puns. i'd buy it, except that it makes me kind of sad.

williamtaft on Jan 15 '07

Thanks for the comments guys!

It is supposed to be orange juice, but the colors are pretty muted so on a screen it could be hard to tell.

I think that there is a duality in the design. On one hand, these breakfast items could be morning the loss of their bacon friend, but they may also be confronting their own mortality as they are next in line to be eaten.

Unreal! Fork & knife is a great idea. I am in love with the bargaining egg. $ and a BIG 5er.

Anthropomancy on Jan 16 '07

5$ love it. I want the fork and knife on it. alot.

nitsua11513 on Jan 16 '07

great as is! im not sure i want the knife/fork on the shoulder (maybe on the back, or incorporated into the front?) a dirtied napkin could be cool on the back of the shirt too. Regardless, its already great and i would buy it as it is!

joshhupp on Jan 16 '07

LittleFlower on Jan 16 '07
