Okay, this is an old one. I’m reposting it for this week’s Illustration Friday theme. I thought it worked really well for it. The inspiration for this was the line from Toy Story where one of the toys (was it the piggy bank or Mr. Potato Head?) says “Humpty Dumpty was pushed.”
I’m not sure if this is actually funny.
So, I wanted to illustrate fluid by showing what it actually was. But how boring would that be? So, I played with the last example.
Probably not actually funny. But it amused me. 🙂
Okay, do we all remember our Greek mythology? Hermes was the messenger of the gods. Also, Mercury in Roman Mythology. Same thing. Anyhow, he had winged sandals. Well, here’s a winged boot. Sort of the same thing. 🙂
Or maybe I’ve been reading Wacky Wednesday to my kids too many times. *shrug*
