What a great BUSY day today was.. first I was up early as I was asked to draw my opinion on this Wall St. thing. Well you know how I feel but what I drew is below. I did not know much so I researched and found out the symbol is this huge brass BULL with BIG balls (so typical male mascot) the balls made me laugh s they are so shiny - from all the people that rub them! I guess for luck.. A symbol once standing for pride and power and $$$ .. and it came to me .. the bulls looking a little tarnished these days. So I could not wait to wake and draw.
My day just got better when Lauren and her mom showed for a visit. I am extremely fond of this young lady ;-) We met because her medicine is Cannabis. Recently deaf - I can't believe how great her lip reading is! It is always a pleasure and a few laughs. I am quite fond of mom too as she makes me laugh and is such a nice woman, very down to earth. I will admit that I also know this mom knows exactly where I am coming from and both of us are always amazed at the stigma Bull*&^% that we have to deal with, especially from "friends" on top of everything else, BUT we do not care. We love our kids and will do WHAT EVER it takes to help them . ;-) Such positive people. I can't wait to spend time again. Scruffy LOVEs when Lauren visits as does Tequila and Lauren does not realize Tequila growls the entire time. She is not afraid because she can't hear her and Tequila loves being able to vocalize. What I love most is that all you need to do is spend a little time with Lauren and you quickly forget she is deaf - because she is so beautiful - inside and out ;-) funny and talented!! Josh and I will soon have some competition! I think she secretly comes up to spy.. hmmmmmm Cartoon secrets. Storm enlightened us with a story about 'balls'.. but thats another blog!
Funny my day started with Bulls balls, we talked about HUGE water mellon balls (poor guy) and I showed a Kangaroo coin purse that I just happen to have in my studio - made from Kangaroo's balls! LOL One of those days...
Later in the afternoon I went and checked the mail and got to see my FIRST EVER HALLMARK CARD!! ;-))
It was, I must admit very cool! You know that hallmark symbol on the back.. my name and photo! But more so Scruffy on the front! Once again I am reminded how much I love my little 4 legged friends. They continue to inspire me daily. A few photos below..
Time to think of some pet toons. Cannabis related of course. xox <><
