(painting) A Roommates Birthday

Bread n' Butter, Knife
acrylic on illustration board
11 x 14

One night at the bar, my roommate says to me, "You know what you should paint?"
"What's that?" I ask
"So you have a loaf of bread and it's scared because there is a knife saying "I'm going to cut you" or something."
"Oh yeah I can totally make something like that." I say taking a sip of my beer.
"But also there should be like a stick of butter, drooling and shit wanting to get smeared onto the bread, you know?"
I nod my approval and we continue with our night.
A few weeks ago he came up to me while I was having a smoke break and shouted "Why aren't you working on MY painting!?"
To be honest I had totally forgotten about the conversation. I wrote down the idea into my sketchbook and told him I was on it. So for His birthday I finally whipped it together.
The text in the image is blurry. knife "I'm gonna cut you next!" butter "And I'M gonna get srpead on that bread!"
