Heroes and Villains
Yes, 6 year old boys are cute. But the age of puppy’s dogs tails is well over.
Their imaginations are the fields in which great and brutal battles are fought, and Ethans drawings now are full of the maimed and the dying. Each toy picked up is engaged in afight to the death, with sound effects, within seconds. The pictures below are all from a single very large image which I can only describe as a cross between the Bayeaux tapestry and the middle pages of “Where the Wild Things Are”. Like the Bayeaux Tapestry is it actually a narrative of a battle.
There are no shades of grey: just evil do-ers and good guys.
Have a look at the rogues gallery below. The last monster, is Ethan’s Friend Reed!
I just dont know myself
Lucinda: these butterfly clips hurt my hair
Dad: here, let me take them out. Ethan just put them in to make you more beautiful than you already are. Isn’t she beautiful, Ethan?
Ethan: Yes.
Lucinda: But I just don’t know myself like that, when I am Lucinda Rose.
Dad: But you are beautiful
Lucinda: but I dont know that.
She is 3 years old.
