gents, I see this as a great compliment. Thank you! To be recognized by other artists is quite humbling but inspiring as well. (Tony, I had a look at the Tasmanians, it is very cool!)
Thank you very much Ankur. I’m glad you picked that up. When I did that sketch I had an idea that I wanted it to be less conventional in terms of what one would expect from a “wishing” quote.
According to wikipedia I suddenly realized “bunch” could be applied (mildly)sarcastically … 🙂 That was not the intent at all, I truly appreciate the comment! (Couldn’t figure out how to edit comments on Carl’s page…)
I have never seen bunch(noun) as having a negative connotation in American English. It simple means “a lot” with no definite amount designated. Bunched(verb as in “bunched up” )could mean crowded or merely collectively arranged.
