- Ambition

For someone who is reasonably devoid of ambition (why does everyone need to be so driven?) I had to look beyond personal experience to get a take on this topic.
I did want to include some dismembered toys scattered around young Joe, but time beat me - no quips about unfulfilled ambition please. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, as I was drawing this I decided to keep it simple and in moderate bad taste. I could've gone with an older drawing that fitted the theme.....but that would be cheating.

Moderate bad taste? Very funny but I would really like to see the dismembered toys - maybe there will be an illo on EDM on that.

Love it, Detlef ... love it! What a fabulous sense of humour ... not a bad drawing, either

V. Funny. I love it! You should definitly put in the smashed toys. It really would take it to the next level.
Thanks for visiting my blog too

Thank you for your comment. “Seriously”, from you it’s a real compliment! And I still want to see those dismembered toys.
