Twenty-four Hours...

“Hmmmm… Not bad.” Urania stood back with her hands on her hips.
Thalia’s laughter induced tears rolled down her cheeks. “Can anybody say ‘Meet the Flintstones?”
“This is exactly what happens when we get over confident!” Nia huffed. “We were not ready to skip the step of making spacing guides.”

“Hmmm… Flaming cheeks,” commented Cal. “And Thalia… Do you have the chicken pox?”
“Getting there!”

No smiles? Somehow in my mind I always pictured The Three from suppressed smiles to huge grins.

The external world vs our mind’s eye. I have just imagined all along that Tal had a full head of curly or wavy hair. I can also guess that drawing a full mane is best done with stylistic brush strokes! Not hair by hair.

Broadly speaking, typist/artist’s progress continues to impress me. The leap from stick figures to persons has been extraordinary. The story lines have varied from word-heavy (and few pictures) to word-lite with pictures as needed.

How do baby eagles prepare for fledging? When do they know that they’re ready? Maybe the parent’s “walk the plank” shove? Or the urging of their hearts?!

Delightful in any case to observe.
