Mack considered himself fairly athletic, so he was up to the challenge when the girls invited him to play during recess. However, as he jumped, he thought to himself, "What did I get myself into?!"
Each week I try to play around, experiment, and have some fun. I figured there may be several pieces featuring jumping rope, so I wanted mine to be a little bit different..... I hoped bringing Mack onto the playground would accomplish that....
When I learned the theme this week was "JUMP," I couldn't help but recall poor Molly and Rusty from "INTENTION" and wanted to give them another moment in the sun, to make up for the pain & suffering. Unfortunately, they don't really qualify for "JUMP." Maybe......"FAILED-TO-JUMP......." and of course, "INTENDED-TO-JUMP....." But you'll be glad to know Molly has fully recovered from her concussion, and now sweeps the rails for spiders before bringing Rusty onto the course!

It was Molly's INTENTION to clear the fence WITH Rusty, but unfortunately, she ended up going it alone.

ReplyDeleteAwaawwww. Hahaha! I love the gigantic tiger playing jumprope with the girls. That have me a chuckle. Can you imagine? Aaaww. That poor rider. Incidentally, I have seen a few during the olympics.

ReplyDeleteI saw a jump roping dog on tv yesterday, but a tiger is even better! Fun pieces :)
ReplyDeleteTOO fun, MIT! I love both illustrations, and now I am just cracking up at the horse in a bucket below this section of your blog. AWESOME! I think you really captured the tiger wonderfully...that is one difficult animal to draw and you nailed it!
ReplyDeleteThe spider is very dangerous! :)
ReplyDeleteGood illustrations
The tiger is awesome. Usually know to be a ferocious animal and you've made him look as tame as a house cat!
ReplyDeleteGreat expression on your tiger--you can feel the apprehension!
ReplyDeleteJumping with tiger - what an interesting idea!
DeleteHooray for tigers! Love his expression here.
ReplyDelete(I really need to look at other people's comments before I comment and say the same thing they did.) ;)
ReplyDeletePoor Mack! He is definitely not happy about his predicament. I hope he finds a graceful way out!
ReplyDeletePoor Kitty! I love your tiger, such movement, and I love his expression!
ReplyDeleteI love your tiger, and he reminds me the tigger from Winnie the Pooh. :)
ReplyDeleteFun illustrations. I like the tiger jump roping.
ReplyDeleteFunny!!
ReplyDeleteWell ... it's a very important lesson for Mark. Don't mess with a girls game of skipping rope ... you don't stand a chance.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHA! Ahh, his expression is PRICELESS! I saw a video of a dog who actually can double-dutch!
ReplyDeleteGlad you gave Molly and Rusty another moment to shine. Still not doing it right, I see, but practice makes perfect. Love your humor!
Love the humour here! The expressions on their faces is amazing! :D
ReplyDeleteI love it that Mark is the one who's intimidated! And Rusty too, come to think of it. (Though in that case poor Molly bears the brunt of his arachnophobia!)
ReplyDelete(Also, how cool to work for a hoop-making company! I make a lot of hoops but mainly to feed my own addiction. %\ Keep at it with opposite current-- you'll be hoopidextrous eventually, I promise!)
You may want to try the pair do a western ride? Maybe?
