This was drawn by the friend of a former ward of mine while I was the Public Administrator in my county. This was taken in March of 2010 and he gave me permission to take photos of his work and share with whomever I desired.

I thought it very well done and I'm sure it had special meaning to him. All he had to work with were colored pencils, felt tip magic markers and crayons. He spent most of his time each day drawing. It reminds me of the 1982 movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Has it really been that long ago? It will make an interesting addition to SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES.

This is a suitable image for the movie ET Tick. The person who did this probably never thought of ET.

Yes, this picture is a great representation of the movie. And, it was a great movie. 1982, my gawd we are getting old. "ET, phone home," seems to have been said just yesterday, to me.

I vividly remember going to the movies with my older sister and being in the lobby of the movie theater and seeing a life size cutout of E.T and being totally freaked by it. Sorry for the run on sentence. I love the entry and a great one for SNATM

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

This is great one for the SNATM theme - fits to a T or in this case an ET

Owd Fella Tick (OFT), I remember E.T. very well, but not with blood shed eyes. It could be that he had a serious car accident, 😜 !
Just kidding of course, because you've visualized this SNATM-theme (🎥) perfectly!
Very well done again, 👍 !

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

A very popular movie in its' day but oddly enough I never watched it in its' entirety...looks like E.T. has grown up and suffered some heartache since then...but a marvelous sketch by your friend and great entry for SNATM...many thanks, Tick!
