These are not all of the same person, but it's easy to see, even without faces on most of them, that they are about the same age.

Happy drawing, everyone!

Wisdom from the ancient Egyptians...

I admit I don't get most of the Pyramid Texts (oldest Egyptian sacred writings we know of). But I did like these tidbits:

Osiris N., take to thyself thy natron, that thou mayest be divine. (Utterance 33, verse 25a)
--In other words, eat your broccoli, Osiris, or you'll never get hair on your chest.

And this more serious one:

No seed of a god, which belongs to him, goes to ruin; so thou who belongest to him wilt not go to ruin. (Utterance 215, verse 145a)
--Of course, I do not believe in ancient Egyptian gods, but it bears the same sentiment as that old elementary school poster, "
I know I'm special, 'cause God don't make no junk."

I am really hoping that what I've written isn't going to contradict what I read in these texts too much. From what I can tell, the texts contradict each other all over the place, so I think I am all right. Yes, it's fiction, yes, there's creative license, but I do like even my fantasy to be as "real" as possible.
