The story you're about to hear is true, only the facts have been changed to make it sound better. It was a dismal, thick kind of evening in late one Monday night. No phone calls, no messages, no requests and no commissions... Nothing but junk mail and over due bills to keep me company...I'm the kind of guy who wears hats, draws what others won't, and walks around in a black and white world. I was in my office, outside, the darkened city was all quiet, just the occasional song and dance number from a jerk splashing about in rain puddles. That's when she...walked in. The kinda dame leads to an art trade…

Said she wanted to draw a cat...ink, black, cute...a Sphinks...and all I had to do was draw up this eye catcher named Penelope Peafowl, in a classy 1920 flapper style. Well...The right chump takes the wrong job. This Peafowl was a bang up design. And i'm a sucker for any broad who's into trades.

It wasn't till i was well into the job when I realized, she was Peacock themed...Looking back it was it obvious, the name, the name! But by then I was welling into inky her. And even though I balled up. I was glad with what i came up with.
