Beautiful! I think you should do an illustration for a LIZARDS FROM AFAR song:

‘ts great n all, but given that it’s song sung by a boy about a boy, why is there a girl in the comic? It kinda misses the whole point of the song.

Nicely done. But I agree that by making the narrator female you’ve missed the whole point of the song. Shame.

to me – this is an awesome love song about a boy. i don’t think the ‘whole’ point of the song is for the narrator to be homo- or hetero-, but rather for the focus to be more about the boy himself.
i imagine i can relate to some gay boys out there as a hetero lady in that there are very few love songs from the loving-a-boy perspective that i personally can really identify with. i’m looking at this illo because this song has been in my head a lot lately. i’m hoping the boy i’m with right now is going to be my wife

I believe this is from Vol. 2, not Vol. 3
And I have enjoyed everything posted so far. Lovely idea!
