My mom just sent me this…it’s something I drew many, many years ago.

I can’t even imagine how old it is. I got a preference for college-ruled paper pretty early on, and given the subject matter of the original text, it sounds kinda grade-schoolish. (I have a vague recollection that it was existing text that I carefully erased to put the image in, and it wasn’t just filler for the background.)

Man. I don’t remember when I did it or anything, but I remember not being happy with parts of it…the right arm being straight out seemed wrong to me, and an obvious ploy not to draw another hand; the leg in front felt weird, too. But now I’m thinking that’s not too bad for whatever age I was. The backlighting effect’s pretty good, too.
