This idea came from a good friend, Ron Crawford. He has the mind of a cartoonist! (He keeps it in a jar on a shelf in his motor home…) He is retired and travels a lot and periodically emails me with an idea for a cartoon. He is blessed by a wife, Linda, who shares his humorous view of mankind. I’m sometimes afraid to ask where he gets his ideas. All I know is his ideas are usually great.
He sent me an idea about a “Keep Off The Grass” sign outside a Re-Hab Center. As I was thinking about how to draw it, I thought about the individual that might be most affected by the sign and decided to portray it as an orientation setting.
This is a classic example of how a common sign has a double meaning when attached to a different set of circumstances. Good Job, Ron!
