Illustration Friday: Time
Time just comes around once. Too much time in front of the television is not good. I just read this in an issue of Time. Time to shut the television off. I say this to my kids all of the time.
so do I!!!! It's funny I just gave lecture # 43 (my kids have all my lectures numbered)as to the hazards of watching to much telivison and spending to much time playing video games hahahahaha great illu!!!! love it!
My lectures don't work, so I removed the TV! It has made them creative, imaginative...oh yeah...I can only imagine the names I was called at the time, but thankfully, they knew not to say them aloud! lol! I love their facial expressions!
I was born to, and raised by two very caring humans on Flora Street in Wichita, Kansas who did the best they could. During my childhood, my uncanny drawing skills kept me safe in the hood. Then, after serving several arduous years at Wichita State University, my toughness and cleverness that I acquired on the streets of Wichita enabled me to escape from Wichita under a tarp in the back of a southbound livestock/art supply truck. Nestled between a pig and a pile of 11"x14" spiral bound sketchbooks I found myself seeking my fortune in Dallas, Texas. Though my fortune eluded me, I did manage to have a great time drawing funny pictures for a lot of fine folks in that fine city. I was later fortunate to make the brilliant decision to move to Nashville, Tennessee, the greatest city on the planet. I know, that's a debatable assessment of Nashville, but I really, really like it here. I'm convinced that if I could sing, play an instrument, or were good looking, I could be a country music star. Till then, I make my living drawin' funny pictures, and painting rectangular paintings.

you're right about sitting too much in front of the TV. Your illo is really great.
ouch! and what about too much computer? too much IF..? or too much wash-machine..? we are all lost.
(maybe they're just sitting here exceptionally because of a fantastic movie by Hitchcock - aren't they?)
