Tassel at Graduation time


I've been busy with a newsletter and some other things. Found this cartoon on the computer; it was part of a drawing that decorated my bulletin board at Graduation Time.
It was a great time. People graduating, meeting parents, hearing about jobs, ... and it seldom rained.
There were tears too - friends leaving friends. But friends in education were able to keep in touch.
I guess the colours have faded and that's why the white background scans in as beige.
Cheers, Neil

Industrial Arts / Technology

For many years, when someone retired, Eric Bent and I had a little skit or presentation at a faculty do; sometimes they involved overheads and cartoons. This was the concluding cartoon at Ross Allan's retirement. Drawing caricatures is not easy and not always successful, and to think I had the nerve to tackle the whole department. Looking back at the caricatures now, I'm pleased; they weren't bad, and I recognize them all - and that was done twenty years ago. (PS - If you click on the drawing, it will enlarge.) Here's to technology!

Tassel Cartoons (from the past)
