Spring

NOT AN INDOOR SPORT

This is my picture for Illustration Friday the theme is Spring. "Spring" was drawn on a piece of multi-purpose copy paper then colored and cleaned up in Photoshop.

Ahh... Spring. I stepped outside to get a whiff of spring air, inhaled deeply and almost drown. I forgot it was still raining.

Do you love spring? Will you love me?

  • I used to love spring but after that I'm afraid of it...

    love anyway

    ...and my word verif is dxlthud. I guess that's what happens if your high speed cable connection "crashes" (or pogo sticking guys fall out of the ceiling).

  • Hey, I love spring!

    BTW, did you know that mp and me were getting married... no! not together, silly. Go on my blog, you'll see...

  • Hahaha! I bet that hurts! ;)

    We dont have spring here by the way, living in a tropical country. Its usually hot season, hot and rainy season, hot and dry season and the shopping season

  • Your work always brings a smile to my face. I agree that its hilarious that the pogo stick has not been dropped yet. Great job! Love!

    By Blogger Lou, at 06:54  

  • ha-ha-ha! I could never pogo and feel a slight resentment toward it, that and the hula hoop!
    Darn all those who can! hee-hee.

    By Blogger Teri, at 10:03  

  • I hope there's a cemetery close by-I think your gonna need a head. That does look like a lot of fun though, well until the moment of impact I guess. Ahh, always like to start spring out with a big LOL.

    By Blogger HARDWAX, at 10:09  

  • You are always an original! Try full contact origami for indoor sport next time. Love the image. Much love.

    By Blogger Lori Witzel, at 20:30  

  • Hmm. Something tells me if you lifted up the shirt of the pogo stick jumper there would be a tell-tale odd patch of hair. Drawing from personal experiences now eh? Brought a smile, good job.

  • I think spring is great and it's beginning where I am. This made me smile though I would'nt try it. You need a shorter spring or you'll leave an obvious trail where you've been, unless you're outside obviously.
    WellSprungLove.

  • Brilliant... thanks for the warning! Knowing me... I'd probably end up in the ceiling too.... unless of course I fell off it first. Either way... me + pogo stick = disaster

    great stuff

    By Blogger Caroline, at 10:11  

  • Ah yes! I remember way back 20 years ago when I lived in Stumptown--it rained in the Spring--a lot. It also rained in the fall, and winter, AND in the summer (a little). This would be a great interpretation of Spring for a webfoot--unless one was inclined to do another rain pic. :>)

    By Blogger Robert McLaughlin, at 12:42  

  • I could never get that high on one of those!

    By Blogger String, at 13:05  

  • Good thing there wasn't a window nearby. Nice job.

    By Blogger Tony Sarrecchia, at 19:09  

  • Yes, Spring has sprung... as has that guy's neck. Getting here late in the week... you already have 50+ loves. Love your love of Spring. Hang in there. Peace and love.

  • Love it. pogo'ing is not for indoors! My daughter once pogo'ed for over a thousand bounces. I can only manage two or three before I fall off.
