Kerry and I are officially on vacation, so in our absence I present this heavy metal worshiping beaver. Part placeholder, part Illustration Friday entry – this beastie also handily represents the week's theme of heavy. However, in the din surrounding our preparations to leave, I whole-heartedly admit that I drew this some fourteen years ago, during a time when I was discovering the work of Terry Aislin and other great Canadian political cartoonists (I wish I could remember the specific artist that inspired this, but I'm spacing). More recently, I called up this beaver for heavy metal duty as the cover-rodent on an all-Canuck compilation CD I made for a friend.
See you in April!
