Illustration Friday - Sea


It's been raining a lot here lately - it's rained for 23 days straight, or something like that. We're close to setting a record. Eric called me at work and told me the basement was flooding. This is what I pictured. He claimed that he rode around on the whale until his hand got stuck in the blowhole. But, this is closer to the reality of the situation:

Except that we don't have a duck.

Oh my... what a pain to be flooded, but what a joy to see such a great illustration. At least you're seeing it through your artist's eyes! Good job:>

I'm sorry about your flood...but, what an awesome illustration!

And...please send some rain this way! Here in Texas we have wild fires popping up everywhere, and strong winds not helping matters. I cannot remember the last time we had rain.

Thanks for the comments everyone!

Although I am tired of the rain, since we are getting close to breaking a record I am strangely excited about it and want it to keep raining. It's something for me to rally behind, like a sports team winning. Since I don't follow sports, I have to take pride in the weather. Rain! Rain! Go....Rain!
