Much as the rest of Canada may not believe it, there is some “Outside” left in the Big Smoke. And the best part of painting is just that -- it gets me outside.

dedicated to m g haggart
Don Marquis (1878 - 1937) was a journalist and columnist in New York City and the author of several novels, short-story collections, and plays. He created the character of archy, a poet reincarnated as a cockroach who launched himself on the keys of a manual typewriter to express himself.
It was not nearly as painful but rather a joy to illustrate this favourite poem. The drawings are dedicated to m g haggart, who read me archy’s poems and taught me his friend mehitabel’s motto, “the word is toujours gai.”

Hallelujah!
