Return of Smurfen to Krylbo, Riding Piggyback on Zorena
Hastily inked art coloured with felt tip marker pencils, drawn at the request of a friend to celebrate her move home to our municipality. Let us call her Smurfen.
As per request, the drawing includes a cow and two long-haired cats, representing the importance of animals in this rambunctious but kind young lady’s life. She has worked with cattle at a farm, and have two Maine Koon cats as pets.
My own additions to the concept was to dress Smurfen up as a cowgirl mounted upon the shoulders of another friend as per this photograph, namely the shoulder of a gentleman that we can call Zorena. This occurred in the Swedish railway town of Krylbo 17/3 2025 Anno Domini (Krylbo being famous for the blowing up of a German transit train by British agents in 1941, see Krylbosmällen).
I also elected to have Smurfen shouting two of her winged phrases, which are most memorable and fit for quoting:
Kvinnor gör män förvirrade = Women make men confused.
Jag kände inte igen dig med kläderna på = I did not recognize you with your clothes on.
