In grade school we had to wear our most hideous bit of green clothing that day.
Green clothing is always a bad idea. Even at age 8 I knew that. Then we would
cut out shamrocks from green construction paper, write our names on them
and put them on the wall or something. Boring. I wanted to cut out a green
Godzilla! Then Mc Donalds reeled me in with their clever marketing. They made
me think I'd want a green milk shake other wise know as a "Shamrock shake."
Vile. So vile.
As I got older I saw (in America at least) that today is the First
excuse since New Years Eve to go out and prep for puking the next morning.
I drew a mouse in the style of Hokusai (badly) with a three leaf Clover
because I wanted to draw a mouse. And I wanted to show that today is not lucky.
If you wondered, St. Patrick is the most generally recognized patron saint of Ireland or "apostle" of Ireland.
Half of me is some sort of Irish or Scottish decent so St. Patrick's Day pretty much means nothing to me.
Oh my god, the drunk passed out mouse is just about my favorite thing you've ever drawn. Also, are they wearing diapers?
ReplyDeleteThat's how Hokusai roles as far as pants go.
ReplyDeleteReally? A drunk mouse?
Just look at that little guy. It's in the way his one ear is pasted over, I think.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the drawings where the levels just keep hitting you. At first it's just a mouse holding a shamrock, isn't that nice, then wait...what...what?
ReplyDeleteThat mouse passed out is great.
