I am hoping that this fits the spot illustration criteria. Seeing all the entries make me wish that I had my own Yeti chef. Great job everyone! This is done for now. I want to make some revisions and repost later, but am not sure I will have time this week. Here it is just in case:

@Georgios-Christopoulos This is great! I love the expression on the middle Yeti's face.

Kim Rosenlof · 22 Feb 2021, 01:44

@KathrynAdebayo I love the perspective on this one. You can also tell that the girl is enjoying the aroma.

Georgios Christopoulos · 22 Feb 2021, 07:14

@Kim-Rosenlof thanks a lot!!also love your guy! bunnies for the win!

@ValD The colors and style are great! I love that the yeti has to wear leg warmers. What's the story there?

Melissa_Bailey · 22 Feb 2021, 17:23

@Kim-Rosenlof love this one! Great, cohesive color palette.

ValD · 22 Feb 2021, 19:13

@alicepelot hahaha everything for the style ! He's a stylish yeti chef that likes to keep is legs and feet extra warm. (and no boots fit so ! )

Several other people had the same idea as I did and rendered it better! Nevertheless, here is mine.

Not sure if it's because I'm from the UK but a bit stuck with Flare vs Flair, flare is to do with fire and flair is more like skilled (if I heard it and didn't read it I would picture more like skilled). Anyone got any clarification?

MarksByMallory · 22 Feb 2021, 22:42

@hayleyannececil I had the exact same thought! I kind of took it as a pun. A flare is also a survival item for the wilderness, so I immediately imagined a Yeti trying to cook something with a flare he stole from a camper. I haven't seen anyone do that so far...

hayleyannececil · 22 Feb 2021, 22:48

@MarksByMallory Yes I saw that! Haha good thinking

As I didn't participate the last two months, I was happy to jump back in this month. I didn't read the whole prompt though, thus didn't integrate the sub-prompt into my first drawing. I think my yeti has a lot of flare though

I went back to the drawing board and worked on a second illustration. It was fun doing it in color this time, as well as cooking up my own little story!

Hollie Michaels · 23 Feb 2021, 00:21

First time entering. Here we go!

Jacy13 · 23 Feb 2021, 01:00

Here is my yeti, Avalanche! He's cooking some "soup" for himself and his flying squirrel buddy

@Jacy13 Awesome! Thank you!

“Yeti cooked with flare...” First, that unintentional typo had me giggling, then it inspired this spot illo. Funny how one word can change the meaning!

So here’s my yeti, chilling out “alone” on his Nepalese hillside, cooking with flare(s)...

@Melissa-Bailey-0 I love this! The dynamic between the two characters is wonderful. I totally didn't notice the typo, lol, but I love that you worked it in!
