it’s hot…
July 22, 2008
…and sweat is causing me to smudge my sketches, sooooo… once again I am reposting an earlier drawing. This one reminds me that I need to break down and carry an umbrella with me when I walk at lunch, to protect me from the relentless sun. Of course, I should probably invest in one a tad larger.
Try to keep cool everyone!

That is adorable! Such a beautiful elephant and she certainly does need a little bit bigger umbrella. She must be self-confident enough about herself to not realize how large she is 🙂 I like how her whole body is an umbrella for her little feet!

I imagine and animation where she flies behind her little umbrella …

It is storming on this side of the country, so I guess umbrellas are the fashionable accessory today!
Ellie looks a bit disgusted to have been given such a small umbrella. Watch out for flying peanuts, Linda!
