Someone on Twitter mentioned that in some regions of Germany, a common idiom for whenever there's mist in the forest is "The foxes are making coffee", and thought the image was evocative enough for an illustration.
Well, I took the bait! 🦊☕
@breakthesystem Eep, thanks! 😊
@pentaro that's awesome, both the original idiom and your drawing
@robotcarsley Hee, you flatter me! I'm just putting lines around.
@pentaro This is awesome! I hope a follow is okay.
@Leucrotta Follows are always ok, friend! The more the merrier!
@pentaro beautiful picture ^^)
@wolfensen Thanks! That's what I strive for!
@pentaro Oh, I love this. TY
@mrszee Thank you for your comment! I'm sure the foxes would love to share some of their coffee with you. 😃
@pentaro
Dann I always knew that my home country is awkward as hell.
@arkedos Oh no no no, not at all! Any country with coffee brewing fauna is alright in my book!
Foxes have an incredible sense of smell, I bet they could find the best most fragrant and full of flavor Coffee Beans to use.
@Tau_Leonis Ah, you know it!
@pentaro London's newest bizarre pop-up? A fox cafe (2015)
@gemlog If the foxes aren't brewing the beverages you can count me out.
@pentaro
we have foxes in berlin, everywhere, also in the center. at night they walk slowly down the streets. they come out between 3-5 at night, when nobody is out, but sometimes me ;)
it's a very nice situation if you meet one. if someone of you guys will be in berlin, you should ask the foxes for a coffee, maybe they will invite you ;)
@gemlog
@pentaro cute!!
@pentaro @5quidhugs ...THEY KNOW TOO MUCH AND MUST BE SILENCED
@pentaro My father used to say that when it was raining while the sun was out, it meant that "the Devil is beating his wife".
@flugennock That's... a less wholesome image, haha! 😅 (But also makes me wonder, who exactly is the Devil's wife?)
@pentaro It's WONDERFUL! 💕
Amazing... So lovely and delicate drawing 😊.
@amberB Woah, thanks! I'm glad you liked it. 😀
@pentaro I liked it so much! 💕 They are simply SO lovely that I desire to walk into picture and have a coffee with them 😊. You are really tallented man.
@pentaro Let alone my jealousy, because my line drawing is on primary school level 😂
@amberB Heh, I'm flattered, but my doodlery could be waaaaay better. Gotta keep practicing!
@pentaro Excuse me, I don't know what "doodlery" is? And thanks for advice, but... I'm of the other sort: my gift is - a craftsman 😊. I can make with these hands whatever I see... From brick wall to jewelry. Gift or curse, still don't know 😊.
@pentaro Oh, sorry - you were speaking about yourself (YOU have to keep practicing)? Here is before dawn, forgive me 😊.
@amberB Oooh, that's definitely a gift! Being able to create something tangible is so amazing. I'm confined to the second dimension!
@pentaro Thank you 😊. I like wood the most. Once my daughter sent me a photo of a fat cat 😆, asking if I can make similar... So I made it - and a little box made of Siberian pine...

But, I always admire people that have talents that I can only dream of. And your gift is something really exceptional, imho.
@pentaro
I have to remember that idiom, I love it !! (like the mist ;)
@pentaro Never heard of that idiom, but it‘s nice - as is your illustration. Thanks!
@pentaro This is so cute 😍
