Illustration Friday: Primitive


Even though Ulu practically wrote the book on particle physics and was a whiz at roller boogie, the folks at National Geographic still considered him primitive.

Funny take on the "word." I like the idea of a tribe person roller blading.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and offering some nice comments.

Very funny - both the illustration and the caption. He's a man of many talents it seems. Thank you for the wonderful comment you left on my blog - you're a much kinder observer than my inner critic is.

This is great! I love the expression and the colors you used! A great idea!

Really funny! A roller-skating, primitive genius is such a funny collection of disparate elements. Your illustration only amplifies an already excellent idea.

And by the way, Ulu might be smart and all, but I kicked his tail in Scrabble last Sunday. I guess this could possibly be attributed to his limited knowledge of the English language, but still, I won.
