I knew that one, except the raven, he was in love with it, because, and there we were in the middle of the office, and he starts unbuttoning his shirt, and everybody in the office was like, okay, this man's lost it, or something, what's going on, I mean, he's our boss, he's the superintendent of the whole district, and he's not just the immediate boss, but the boss, and he sort of took out his arm a little bit, and there was a raven that was so similar to the one I'd drawn, and it was there, one of his tattoos, and one of his favorite tattoos, and I'm like, oh, good, please put your shirt back on, and then, so that was exciting, it turned out that the gift turned out to be very, became a very personal thing for him, and he still has it, and he still talks about it, and it was like several years ago now, and it feels good that I got to give something to someone that actually touched them, and resonated with them on a personal level, without me even, you know, knowing anything about it, except for that point, of course, but that was just a background design, so that was fun. Perfect, synchronicity, yeah.

Yes, yes, you just never know, so yeah, but what you were saying, you know, with a large piece of paper, and so that's what I was just remembering, that I'll start something, and then I'm like, oh, God, why did I take this huge sheet of paper, and I have to put it on. I did that with a piece, I just thought, this is going to be my maximosis, I'm going to really go for this, I'll have infinite patience, right, with like an A1 grey turning paper, and I thought, I'll go monochrome. I must have seriously spent 80 hours of drawing with 0.01 fineliners, and all that, and it was just, by the end of it, I remember, I'd go on, I'd work on it for about, I don't know, four or five hours at a time, and I'd go out, sorry. No, no, I don't know how people do it, yeah.
