Illustration Friday: Tales and Legends

For Illustration Friday's topic "Tales and Legends" I give you Rip Van Winkle. Since Sleep (yes, that's sleep with a capital 'S') is the hot topic in our house, Rip's champion napping ability is something I envy. Of course I wouldn't want to miss out on 20 years of my life right now, but a few hour nap sounds mighty good. If you've forgotten the tale of Mr. Van Winkle, you can read it here.
