Holy Cow!

This is a sketch I did a year or so ago that I always meant to go back and finish. That hasn’t happened yet, but maybe someday…

Dennis, this sketch is perfect for my crusade against my family and friends using the term “Holy-Cow” in daily conversations. Though I always try and do it in a loving way, I have often been accused of being overboard with this.

But think about it: Of all the things we say (and we know how important they are to God) this one has to conjure up “Bad-Memories” for Him personally?

Thanks,
Bernard

  …I got so mad about the holy cow thing one time I threw my Wacom Tablet to the ground and it broke in two. Now I wander aimlessly around my studio in my house robe with the two tablet pieces in one hand and a walking stick in the other hoping to someday make it out of the Indiana wilderness…

If it helps, my version of this looks like an old guy carrying menus at a Sizzler Steakhouse….

I think this might be one of my favourite pieces you’ve done! The concept is really good, it has heaps of character and the major lines all seem to work together very nicely. I’d like to see it done up with pen and ink wash or something. By the way, your Wacom joke is awful and great at the same time… a good combination!

Holy cow! I thought I was the only one who had sketches laying around for over a year.
