That is one awesome art and I definitely enjoy looking at it! And you drew it on A3 is great since I can see so many details that you put in the picture now :D.
                     
The fish eye lens makes it a bit trippy, kinda cool effect. I really like how expressive your characters are in the drawing, especially since you told me that they're mostly you and your family members, and it's great to see how they're always in one fun adventure or another.      
                   
Congrats for your curie vote, longer ^_^. A great piece!

Thank you :)
I've been trying out fish eye perspective since I stumbled upon drawings of Kim Jung gi ( you know him? Mind blowing skills).
And yes, it's me, my wife and our three boys.

I feel spoiled with curie votes lately :)

I enjoyed your sense of humor and the thorough process shots, as well as the details. Your process is very methodical, something I myself have not the patience or discipline to carry through - my approach is more erratic and spontaneous.
The caption "the recipe says clearly - Just one slice of jalapeno pepper" immediately reminded me of an incident long time ago - besides that, I think recipes are subject to creative alterations to make it interesting, but I digress. Here is my story: we were a bunch of guys cooking a Hungarian Goulash together. Everybody took turns stirring the pot, but also, everybody threw in something of their own, and some if it were really hot peppers, but I don't remember what types, probably the worse you find on this chart: Chili Pepper Types.
Anyway, by the time it was all done, you could not eat this, it would burn your mouth. So what we wound up doing was to sift out the meat and start all over. No need to add any spices now, the meat had absorbed enough of it that the new and improved version was still very spicy. But what to do with the juices? Would be a shame to discard, so we strained it and filled it into bottles for everyone to take home and use as a spice. Mine lasted for a couple of years cooking goulash and adding just a few drops.

Ooooh I love Hungarian goulash ;)
And as for your story - there's a saying in polish (maybe it functions in other nations as well, not sure) that translates loosely to "where there's six cooks there's nothing to eat" :)
I like spicy food myself but would definitely be scared even to get close to some those pepper types

Just one jalapeno pepper, okay? Why are you making life more complicated? 😂

Poor mother dear chef... I can only imagine the chaos and excitement having many kids taking their part in the kitchen. 😊

You are very patient to have drawn this with all those details. And very positive too to have posted it even after two months on when it should have been. As they say, better late than never... 😊

Chaos is part of our everyday routine ;)

Indeed, it is. It can be fun too, like that on your drawing. 😄

I love the fisheye lens effect.
