Toni Le Busque's stories.

I think of this as a ‘religious’ drawing.

Basically, the crying dog is the god/Jesus figure.
Why does he cry?
He cries for all the people I know who died last year.
Does god cry?
Who knows.
But I certainly have done.

The half circle up the top right is the sun.
Right down the bottom on the left is a city.
All those tumbling spirals and so on are the creation of the earth.
It’s like my own personal Cappella Sistina

I am not a reigious person, but I’ve had enough of it surround me for years and years and years that it’s inevitable that I would produce something that ‘feels’, to me anyway, like the creation story.

However, these little spirals also make me thing of fossils and things found underground; proper natural things, not stuff thought up by believers in supernatural creators.

I fear I haven’t explained myself well.

Never mind.

I’ll let the drawing do the talking.

Anyway, whatever it is, it’s finished.
