Not long ago I came across an old black & white photo of a kid with a colander on his head. (I think my mom has a picture of me with one on my head.) Was this a clever marketing ploy by the colander people to get moms across America to buy more hats… er, pasta straining devices? “I know it works Bill, but can we make the bowl a little bigger, I don’t think that’ll fit on my head?” The photo made me laugh so hard I immediately saw this piece in my mind’s eye. And, as you visionaries out there know, inspiration needs to be pursued to its logical conclusions. (I just made that up.) Now, where did I put those legos?
Here’s my original sketch.
