Evil Snail

When I was younger and my dad's copy of The New Yorker arrived in the mail, he would show me the cover and ask me what I thought it meant. Sometimes there was a pun or riddle involved and sometimes it was just an illustration depicting what was inside. Either way, we would open the issue to see the title of the illustration and my dad would then explain it to me.

When he was done with it, I would flip through and read the cartoons. This particular cartoon is the source of my obsession with snails.

And this was the first thing I ever drew with Adobe Illustrator. Here is my fanged snail.
