I have trouble envisioning myself with a tattoo, but if I were to get one, I’d want it to be something badass. Or, er, floral. One or the other. Keeping with the badass, though, and with Pippi Longstocking still on the brain, I designed a silhouette that I’d sport if I were sure I was the tattoo sportin’ type. I also made a redesign of the Pippi braid logo, which I’m way more likely to get. But where? Hmmmmm. Thoughts?
Dido Twite (heroine of much of Joan Aiken’s Wolves Chronicles series) is, in my opion, even cooler, though lacking in upper body strength by comparison. The Edward Gorey emblem artwork from the cover of one of Aiken’s books is something I’ve been considering getting for awhile, The Stolen Lake being my favorite book, but Dido and Pa having the better artwork. Quandry, right? So I made a composite image with pieces from three of Gorey’s covers that I’ll most likely never do anything other than dream about:
Dido (right) by herself would be nice. Or a Quentin Blake illustration. Matilda or Mortimer from Arabel’s Raven…
