To get you in a properly artsy mood, here's another illustration I created for Hanna's poetry book. It's called "Virgole di lacrime" (Commas of tears).

Sketchy plans
As the badge in my sidebar so colorfully announces, Doodle Week II begins next Monday. That means I'll be revving up the blog with daily posts very shortly. I'll also sprinkle the latest chapters of my short story Belly into the mix, so don't let your eyeballs stray far from this space.

I had interpreted this the other way, and as usual an awesome work of art.
My first reaction on seeing this was that you had recreated the hookah-smoking caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland.
I love Oodles of Doodles!!*******
I think the handle Comma of Tears is Brilliant!!!
;)) Peace*
I really liked this - thought it was a great illustration for the title.
Is it an upside down comma though? :)
@Jena It's much less literal than I originally intended. The commas/teardrops became more misshapen in the final rendering.
@Mark I'm quite fond of that caterpillar, and I can see the resemblance :).
@Billy All the brilliance can be attributed to Hanna's verse. Join in the doodling fun ... the more the merrier.
@Catherine Yeah, I was undecided which way to turn it. This way is more tear-like, but less comma-like. I guess it's more of a single-quote mark.
Tricky, I've thought of this as something nonsense, but yet it does makes sense looking a bit longer at it.
By the way, I'm having a contest running check it out:

Also, do you mind if we link exchange?

@Kevin Repeated and polonged staring is definitely the best way to make sense of these drawings. I'm happy to exchange links with you.
