If You See Something, Say Something


I often draw on the back of my business cards when I'm on the subway and don't feel like drawing attention. Ha ha. I don't recognize anything in this except for a cloud.

Well, since all other watchers see nothing or dread speaking their sight, I see a vaguely human figure falling into the cogs of a monster-machine. A giant salt shaker standing guard. Driving rain and [yes] one cloud in the background. One clenched fist jutting corner-forth.

Industrial fears, avaunt!

Thanks, Abigail. I can see those things now. I also see a wailing snail-like thing in a mushroom patch (salt shakers). What appears to be the bended knee of the figure could also be the elbow of a character leaning to the left. He has a striped hood on and his left hand is pushing off the fist you saw in the corner. His right is touching a big square hole in his chest, with x's on the flap. On his head stands a duck calmly observing the snail.

#1. Now your picture pops out, too--a blend of horror and humor. I laughed aloud when the duck appeared.

#2. For The Record, the Latin-leaning names of your blooms also make me laugh.

#3. I showed my husband, an ardent beard-wearer himself, the photo of your moustache. Have you ever considered entering the World Beard and Moustache Championships?

I see the back of a man or maybe a woman with short hair ... climbing a large mushroom shaped hill in a city. There are lots of buildings looking down at the climber. But he's almost to the top.

Ok I posted without reading the other comments. now that I have read them.. yadda yadda yadda.

I also see a funny little Kilroy type guy peeking off the left side of the paper.. (climbing guy is actually crushing his head) his nose isn't shown.. just his eyes and his little beanie cap thing.

There is another one under the other foot of the climber.. two eyes .. this guy is less formed.. but he looks a bit like a rock ogre.
