I'm not sure why I felt compelled to draw this . . .
. . . or to post it on my blog for that matter, but here it is!
Scroll through fast and pretend it is animated.

1. So, uh . . . where did his bike land?
2. What kind of ducks were those?
3. How did the girl and the dog and the bald guy and the cat get down there so fast? (Answer in the form of a wordless comic, with explanatory vector diagram if necessary.)
4. If some little girl gave you a push on your bike and you lost control and almost ran over some rare endangered ducks and then flew off a cliff and landed in a giant tub of water . . . well, how would you feel? Pretty good, I bet.

Clutter
Last week's Illustration Friday topic was "Clutter."
It made me think of one time when I was in 1st or 2nd grade: My mom told me to clean my room, which had all my toys strewn about. I didn't want to do it! But I picked the toys up and put them in my toy-storage laundry baskets. And when they were all put away, I was amazed by the vast expanse of open floor. The fuzzy green rug was like a wide open plain. So I took this tiny plastic deer that I had and galloped it all across the plain.
This one instance of childhood play stands out in my memory.

Memories
This is how my memories could get me in trouble: when remembrances of teenage invincibility meet thirtysomething reality. (I haven't stepped on my skateboard for a few years now, and I probably shouldn't!)
This is my first post for Illustration Friday.
