I felt compelled to do a take on @atopy's big head style drawings merged with my own in a crossover hit I like to call "a cartoon giving back to a cartoon"

If you are unfamiliar with @atopy, you need to check her out. I love her drawings and was honoured when she chose to do a version of me and my 'friends' (read Monty the dog, Puss the cat, and Monty's favourite chick, Farthing.) doing one of my favourite things: Collecting treasures on our beach. A rather accurate portrayal too, I might add. The amount of far too heavy things I have pulled up the shore from our beach are too many to count.

Please Read her post about it here and by all means follow her, because it is well worth it.

What is so amazing about @atopy is 10 months ago she didn't even draw at all! Now to see her adorable drawings/cartoons you'd think she'd been penning quips for the New Yorker for years.

That is one of the wonderful things about Steemit. I love how it not only brings amazing people into our lives, but it even spurs on hidden talents in us that we discover though the challenge and sharing of this great platform.

Now, when I saw that she had included me in her amazing "Giving smth back" drawings I was very honored. She even included my own @winstonalden ( a very apt likeness too, I might add)

I knew I wanted to give back to her giving back. So, I had a think on it. I decided to do a drawing in kind. A version of she and cat in her large headed way but in my style. A tit for tat but a sketch for sketch if you will.

In my usual self involved way I chose to make her into an impish Victorian child simply for the reason that I love that time period. And it was fun, too, which is one of the main reasons behind most of why do any of my art.

Well, I hope you like it and I certainly hope she likes it. Maybe we'll set a fashion here on Steemit to make drawings, poems, music, fiction of one another to celebrate one another. Although, I suppose it is already happening, but why not just add to it and do it more often, right?
