Sign: Provider Pond

Title: You Must Be Nuts To Enter REALLY

A while back, I got an e-mail asking if I could draw a cartoon idea that someone had.  It was just before the big push for the 2011 cartoon-a-thon.  I knew I would not be able to give it much of my attention and I told the peer this via e-mail but told him to send me his ideas, anyway.

He envisioned a group of monkeys being ripped apart by alligators along side a pond (alligator pit).  I believe the idea was that there was a provider on the other side of the pond.  Not quite my style of cartoons.  Still, I told him I would give it a shot but I would put my own twist to it.  What could he say about that, he’s not paying for it and I hate drawing monkeys.

That’s just a little issue I have with those cute little monkeys… I hate drawing them, therefore I don’t have many cartoons featuring monkeys.   Ergo, no monkeys in this cartoon above of my interpretation of his idea… or feelings about mental health providers.
