Bird Eye View
VOGELPERSPECTIEF - BIRD EYE VIEW
Een zeemeeuw liet zijn kleinzoon het bruisende New York zien:
'Kijk, dat zijn nou de Twin Towers!'
They had seen stunning pictures in a magazine,
Getting there took them two hours.
'Die wolkenkrabbers hebben een geraffineerd design,
Wat zijn mensen toch bijzonder!
With wings they'd be angels but without they're still divine,
If humans rule the world it is no wonder!'
Zijn kleinzoon zei bedeesd: 'Wat was ik graag een mens geweest,
Nu ben ik maar een zeemeeuw'.
Grandpa laughed: 'You can acquire some of their taste,
At a somewhat smaller scale!'

Tigerlotto
TIGERLOTTO
Ten zuiden van New Delhi leefde een tijgerjong
Who dreamed of magic lottery sheets all day long.
Hij had een jonge vrouw onder een boom gezien
With the most beautiful hands he had ever seen
Ze bewogen haastig over een berg papier
While she looked him straight in the eyes without fear
Vrienden hadden haar afgezet onder die boom
They had come here together from far away Rome.
Ze had alles uitgegeven, iedere cent;

Seydou Keita - FOAM Amsterdam
If you need something to brighten up your day, go to the exhibition of Seydou Keita at the museum of photography: Foam, Amsterdam (only two more days unfortunately).
You will be touched when you see Seydou's wonderful photos with the beauty of his people, their dignity and the love he had for them.

Troep...
Troep
Er ligt net zoveel troep op de straat,
Als in onze kranten geschreven staat,
Als in de taal die wordt uitgekraamt,
Door wie zich toch nooit ergens voor schaamt.

Il carnevale triste
Una Dormita Lunga
A Rio de Janeiro
Sul Monte Corcovado
Joao - bruco brasileiro
Si trovò in mezzo al guado
Volle ballar la samba
Al prossimo carnevale
Ma sua ottava gamba
Faceva troppo male

A little speed-painting done on my I-Pad and no stylus - just a finger.
Ain't he cute?

Exotic - Illustration Friday
Exotic (I hope not toxic; neither prehistoric)
...Well, too bad I started late on this cartoon so now it is published with the 'Prehistoric' topic in Illustration Friday.
Poor thing hardly is prehistoric but he is: 'Exotic', with exotic fruit!
I did not finish the drawing the way it is supposed to be so I will post an up-date soon!

Children at work
This is a collage I won a lovely prize with in 2001 (Premio Gioielleria Simionato at Umorismo e Satira in Dolo, Italy) .
Only now I finally got round at finishing the foot-balls the way I wanted to so it has become a mixed-media cartoon :)
