IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
A kind of still-life painting, like the old classical painting style.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
No mesh was harmed for this image.
(in fact, there is no mesh used at all.)
The camera is a special orthographic, with non-perpendicular axes.
Cooking is the main idea, some fire on the left, classical ice-cream on the
right, and the meeting of both at the center as the norvegian omelet.
The rendering speed is mainly due to a very high AA (probably too much) and
the arealight used.
The painting on the wall is an intermediate (flipped) picture of the scene.
(remove the spoons and the glass to have it)
The flip is done to put the slant of the perspective more visible and yet more
bearable.
There is no water in the glass because the topic is not Fire & Ice & Water...
Don't eat everything at once!
