A word in your ear (and nose)...the bitter truth. by Lewis Cooper

Comments

Another good one Lew. The truly awful fact is that at a certain age, the hair on your head stops growing upwards, reverses and sprouts from your nose and ears.

Great character Lew. It’s a long time since I read this fact , I do like Tony’s added thoughts on the subject.

Thanks for your comments. Tony reminds me I’ve forgotten about how our hair continues to grow and seeks out new horizons…and once again it’s our noses and ears that are the target. On windy days I have to make sure my ears don’t make me airborne. When I do get lift-off, neighbours tell me that, with my nose and ears, I bear more than a passing resemblance to Concorde in flight. Old age…eh?

Very true and a great illustration Lewis

Made me chuckle - and what a character- great work as always, Lewis!

I didn't know that Lewis------ Brilliant!

Terrific lewis. My grand children never fail to remind me of the weird things that happen as we age, particularly fascinated with ear and nose hair!

Another great character, and unknown fact , well done.

Great stuff Lewis.

Hadn’t heard that before - great illustration.

That made me laugh!

Thanks fo the giggle!

Oh yes it’s true. Great illustration Lewis.

Such a brilliant character Lewis. I believe it’s true though.

I stumbled across this strange fact. Yes...it's true. Pen watercolour and coloured pencil.

About the Artist

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
