Inspiration putts by

Sometimes inspiration just drives by...on a lawn tractor.
The Mower
The driver of the lawn tractor looked frustrated and bored as he road down the street. I assume he was driving to his next mowing job and a garden tractor moves only so fast. As he passed we saw the pose and immediately thought of Rodin's "The Thinker". Then we laughed. I think the mower heard us laugh and I hope we didn't hurt his feelings. Yet...the pose was just too funny! Had to be drawn. Or at least attempted.

Maybe this one will get reworked...it would be fun to see if I can inject a little personality into the tractor (beyond the funky tires).
