I scanned this in recently from a book of scribbles. basically about being abandoned/stood up. I was going to call it alienated but thats a bit obvious imo. Wink I think subconciously I was thinking of "ET phone home".. except they don't turn up.

"outsider artists"? Laughing

yes an outsider, loner, black sheep. the bastards dumped him on another planet.

"they're coming back any minute now". I had to wait an hour for a taxi last night in the cold and it reminded me of this. Smile

wow thats a compliment. thankyou. I even drew him starved and gaunt.. waiting for freedom? I vaguely remember seeing a movie where they built and blew up a bridge.. I would've been a kid last I saw it. great movie.. they really stuck it to em.

Now I'm also going to think of POWs etc everytime I look at it..

I have removed a number of posts from this thread because they had gone off-topic and were becoming abusive.
