   Hah heh. Well between you and Jack I look 45 years older (I now look 32) because of the laugh lines. I just love the beeline hair.

   Now I just sent you an email. Let me know if you don’t get it pretty please!

   see you

   sorry I have been so quiet

   And what a prom it must have been! Who needs a fountain of youth when you’ve got a hat like that? 😀

   Hahahahaha! Groovy, sistah! I love her hat. And strange as it may sound, I also love her elbows. Whenever I see a beehive, I think B-52s!

    Hey Krista! I like the combination Granny/hippie look! Great character. Did Louise ever get married?… or did the bees keep away prospective suitors?It took Bobby Goldsboro six years, but in 1968 he recorded his tribute to Louise and her hat……”Honey” (I miss you) :o) I was going to repost my last week’s Illustration Friday “resolutions” and rename it Deja Vu and give everyone a deja vu experience… but that would have been to easy :o)

    Great character! Makes me think Louise likes to sit in a sun-warmed kitchen full of Crate and Barrel, green tea (with honey, of course), thinking of yesteryear. Excellent illustration!
