Awaiting a Drawing: SHADOWS WANTED

September 14, 2011

Your shadow has become a burden?
Want to get rid of that useless thing?
I take it.

... and who was it who lost their shadow? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shadow_(fairy_tale)

I have been remiss about commenting but I've been loving your drawings.; September 14, 2011 10:18 PM
Werner said...: Hi Suzanne,

Thanks a lot for the links, I didn't know the fairy tale!

I'm still drawing ... shadows; September 15, 2011 11:27 PM

Werner said...: Thank you Suzanne and Lorena...

Nice cartoons, I didn't know them at all.

"Recycling" is also a nice association that I hadn't thought of ... hope you haven't thrown your shadow in the garbage yet, Lorena ;-); October 14, 2011 11:38 PM
