Collage, Bob, and Grey Art Dump

Pbbbbbt.

Made just to get this idea out of my head of making a COVID collage using all the platitudes of "In These _____ Times" that I got in the mail over the past few months.

Gigi has wanted an American McGee's Alice collage for years. Now she finally has one. The dancer and cards are from an Alice in Wonderland ballet program we got back in 2014; the line from Jabberwocky is from a middle school print out that we've kept all these years.

Sketching, trying to get Bob down. He lost weight the hard way, as he puts it. Still a motorminded smartass though.

More of the same.

Grey at 62 is oddly chill and at peace. Rogan made the hat.

Rogan had a lot of explaining to do.

As Bob puts it, Grey's word budget keeps getting slashed; voicing costs a lot, signing costs less, and parsing what other people are saying costs less still, but nevertheless, ALL cost. Now that she doesn't HAVE to talk, she pretty much doesn't, and she uses this sign a LOT for, "you are asking me to go beyond my word budget; no can do."

M.D.'s a hair chameleon.
