Artist's Comments

Marion is a quadruple amputee from birth. She can't do many things with no arms and no legs, but stay in crowded places and get money for the organization...

This is total fiction of course, and I really don't think that these weird ';peg-arms' can work !

Thank you very much Stealth, although I'm not certain I've understood your American idiom. Anyway, I'm sure that's a compliment.

Nice work on this one. It's been awhile since you posted, but I always look forward to your subjects. It inspires me to do something in a like style. Great piece!

Mais oui monsiuer. C'est tres bien.

(if i actually got that even close to right i am completely amazed. it has been over 25 years since i studied French.)

By the way, I feel that the drawing you made of Marion is very beautiful. I look forward to seeing more pictures of her. Your drawing skills are incredible. (Maurice rocks!!)

Thank you Stealth and Bob.

Stealth, your 25-years French is good, just a typo, 'monsiuer' for 'monsieur'. And, of course, you don't have the 'French accents' on your keyboard !

Ah, at last she is completely incomplete. Lovely!

What will she do next?

Next ? She'll be sitting on the steps of the New York Stock Exchange, Wall Street, and get cash money for the Red Cross.
A more profitable business than all those traders inside can do !

But before, there'll be a ';Peggy', all new and colorized.

Thanks for the compliment,

Maurice

In my opinion, she could really do many thigs, even if she is a quadruple amputee because that doesn't makes her less capable. BWT, the artwork is very cool and the concept.

The beauty is really something strange and abstract, very surprising, and very tricky sometimes, but is great and marvelous, in all of it's forms.
