Teaching, Year Two: Miss Towfoot
I had to share this lovely piece of art that was passed on to me from Brianna Twofoot. It is a portrait of her that one of her students drew for her -- and not in spite according to Brianna. Let's compare, shall we?

The first thing that stands out is the one eye. Now, I could understand the one eye thing if the child had no number sense, sense of body parts, or if Twofoot wore an eye patch around school, but Twofoot has taught her both of those things and she only wears the eye patch on the weekends (don't ask me why). The striking thing is that she gets two eyebrows for her one eye. Quite a feat.
Next is the horns. Now, I've drawn some horns on people in my day, but these top any creation I ever came up with. I think it's the spikes or discs that are coming out of them. They just make her look über vicious. Not that she isn't, to be fair. Just kidding, Twofoot.
Another fabulous liberty that the artist took was drawing four breasts instead of two. Fabulous.
Go down even farther and you can see that Twofoot has action figure knees. You know, the kind that came on some type of army man or something that made his knees move. Twofoot has the same ability as the action figure, or at least a machine-like element to herself, in the depiction.
Also noteworthy are the needle-like feet and arms.
Finally, I was glad that the artist did in fact clarify for us that she was drawing "towfoot" as a girl. Because it looks more like a rendition of the cyberdemon from Doom II.
