Daddy Long Legs are the most dire, beastly creations on the Earth. What philosophical dilemma they would meet had they any brains; why do I live? I have poison I can't inject. My wings barely keep me off the ground. When I try to walk on the ceiling only two legs stick and I dangle, lost, a metaphor for myself. Poor Daddy Long legs. You almost feel sorry for them.
Except they're disgusting. So you don't.

Blue and red ink, a doodle really. Inspired by the freak who flew in through my window. I

Daddy longlegs can fly..? Eerp..

I really love this picture. The richness in colour (where there is some), and the lines in it. For lack of a better word, it's rather cute.
:iconlilaims:
Just about - actually, they sort of bounce =P Daddy long legs are the least cute things in the world, but thanks very much all the same :)

I like daddy long legs... you gotta feel sorry for them really, as they only live for a couple of days, lose most of their legs in the process, and don't have big enough fangs to bite anyone. I mean, what kind of life is that? =P
:iconlilaims:
The kind that should be ENDED, for the sake of everyone involved.

This is a great picture. I love it. We have a ceiling fan at home - if you leave the door open, wait for them all to come in then put the fan on reverse it is really funny!!! They get sucked up in the up draught, get whirled about a bit then spat out the top of the fan at about a million miles an hour:D That and a bottle of wine is great evening entertainment!!!!!:-)
:iconlilaims:
Fabulous! I wonder if a table fan would do the trick? =P Of course, I'd do it and end up with a dozen monsters bouncing around the floor for a week stopping me from going in!

Hee Hee I don't see why it shouldn't work. You need to borrow Vada - he chases them round like a nutter!!! I don't think he has ever caught one yet but they seem to disappear:D

Daddy long legs creep me out. *shudder*

But I love this drawing. You have such a lovely style and I really like how this particular piece really glows. Nice work. :)

Almira Gulch! Just because you own half the county doesn't mean you have the power to run the rest of us. For twenty-three years, I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you. And now, well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it.

Thank you, and Happy New Year! :)
