Oh my! I really like this. Seventeen may be fresh in some ways--as evidenced by this character's open expression and the fishy thing smelling the flower, but it's also kind of grubby, as shown in the colors and quality of line. There's nothing like the smell of teenaged boy, and we all know that daisies kind of stink. Fun picture!

DeleteThe best way to get a flying seal out of your hair is to use a sweet smelling flower as bait! Yeah, I know I'm way off in interpretation.
ReplyDeleteI wish my cuticles were that nice.
