In this modern technologically laden world, folks appear to be having trouble fitting into the skins they were born with. Lucky is the person who knows who and what he is out of the starting gate. With the nuclear family being pretty much a thing of the distant past, we are going to see folks adopt fantasy personalities because they cannot relate to the one they were born with. The current fascination with RPG's is one symptom of this, I think. Hum-drum lives need a boost, a fix, I get it. This is a 6.5 by 5.5 inches gel pen drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Original Jones Art gave up the game world for a world of his own devising here in northwest Austin, Texas. It fits him like a custom-tailored suit.

Hmm, his appearance reminds me a bit of Hitler. Not sure why. Pretty sure it has nothing to do with your personality! Good work, as always.

Artist Reply: Like I always say, you can't predict how someone is going to take an image, mine or anyone's. We all tend to see things 'our' way. Could be something about the cock of the head and the exaggerated eyes. I looked over several of Uncle Adolf and many had his eyes made more piercing by the photographer. Thanks, Ginger!

I agree with your sentiment Charles. People have sometimes asked me what I think about a sex change, and I always tell them, " yes, I'd like to have sex for a change " : ) Cool drawing : )

Artist Reply: Dave, it sounds as though your 'wit' and mine are cut from the same cloth. Or maybe just a similar tartan. You give people an option and a percentage will take it as though it were a requisite---which options are not, or they wouldn't be 'options.' :)
