Award season already?

Vapid Expression of the Week Award goes to: the 2 old ladies today driving headlong towards my car while I'm on a one-way street. The illustration simulates my point of view. Zoom in for details. (The Hot Librarian wasn't kidding; it's tough drawing on a computer.)


Lying Sack of Shit Award goes to: stoned-lookin', slick-haired worker at the Electronics Expo store.

This is great. To top it off, I think these two ladies work in the gift shop here at the hospital. The resemblance is undeniable.

You're a true Edward Hopper with a mouse. You captured the nuances of octogenarian alienation in our modern, mobile society.

Unbelievably, no accident. After staring them down for awhile coupled with half-hearted exclamations (they were old so I felt kinda bad) of, "What the fuck are you doing?!" they PROCEEDED to drive further down the street the wrong way. All the way towards the on-ramp (their off-ramp I guess) so I'm guessing a crash was practically guaranteed for someone.

LOL....they probably pooped in their girdles.

I hope I have not violated you or your copyright in any way, but I have printed that and have plans to display it prominantly at work, for my own amusement as well as that of my coworkers. Love it!

I encountered a wrong-way driver on the highway once. About the time I was finishing my prayers of thanks for still being alive, there was another! Same highway, about half a mile away from the first. Senior Citizen day at the coffee shop, I think.

I was a passenger in a taxi once that did that.

You should do portraits as holiday gifts :-) Of maybe you could get a new job on an NYC corner drawing passerby.

My granny used to drive in the middle of the road. That way she was always half right.

I agree, it's tough to draw on the computer, but you did a pretty good job. That's crazy.
