Illustration Friday—Yield

March 14, 2012

It happens every year,” exclaimed Zorra Zebra. “We watch Zoe ‘yield’ to that gosh darn giraffe Joey. He convinces her stripes are out, dots are in, then shamelessly proceeds to unravel her and applique his vision of perfection on her butt. It’s sabotage! She loses her identity and it always takes us weeks to weave her back into the herd.”
