I get a lot of different kinds of request from the various readers of this blog, but none has been more "different" than the one I received from Carolyn not long ago. She wrote, "I am interested in a picture of a cartoon elk dressed in camouflage, squatting down with his pants pulled down, getting ready to take a dump."
Yes, that's right boys and girls. You saw it here first. Carolyn wanted an illustration of... "nature answering nature's call."
Now, while it's not the kind of cartoon that I'm forwarding to my Mom for her viewing pleasure, I am happy with the way the illustration turned out. Thank goodness Carolyn said that I didn't actually have to draw in the... well... umm..., let's just call it... "the dirty deed." I guess the position of the elk's repose speaks volumes enough.
Now you're asking, "Why would Carolyn want such a drawing." I was curios about that myself, but unfortunately I am sworn to secrecy. Maybe she will feel free to give explanation herself here, but, as for me, I will have to leave it to your
Any guesses?
P.S. This is not the first time that I've drawn an elk. Go here, and here, to make an informed comparison of my work with the creature.

LOL. I have no idea, but at least the elk is embarrassed. Rough day at our house. Thanks for the smile.
I have an Elkhound - who has never seen an Elk never mind 'hounded' one. I'm going to show her your elk pictures!
I like it too - makes a change from people - not that there is anything wrong with people...(sinking into a hole....)
LOL! Please, Carolyn, share with us the reason behind the request! We must know...
I always heard funny stories about that kind of situation from my MIL, while describing things that happened on her hubby's and step son's yearly hunting trips. Guess its true when she said if that "deed" needs to be done the best thing to do is find a tree stump..
Thats some info I will never use I think, but happy to store it away, lest someone else need it,lol.
Would also love to hear the reason behind the request.

Oh well I am absolutely certain it has something to do with a man in her life. I mean really. :)
And maybe - she's poking fun at him in some way? The elk won?
Thanks for the giggles! That is a great title for this piece- Nature Answering Nature's Call. heehee
Oh that's HILARIOUS.
ROFLOL, way to capture the "moment"!!!
Well, you never can tell. Obviously this grandmotherly type of lady has a sense of humor! I like the tinge of red on the elk's cheeks (the cheeks on his face, of course!).
