Lent, an Absence, and Irving.

      I have some rather unfortunate news:
I'm going to be absent from Just Draw for a little while. As some of you know, Lent is coming up this March, and I have decided to give up Electronics! So that means Just Draw won't be hearing from me until April. But AHA! Here's some news that is somewhat relieving:
 I'll be drawing like mad while I'm away, so there will be so many new drawings, you won't even know what to do with yourself!!  But, so you won't be bored, here's a sketch of a rather unfortunate man named Irving the Slapped:


THE STORY:
This is a man named Irving McBride. His story is rather unfortunate, as it ends in partial tragedy.
Irving was an outcast in his village; his love of Sock-puppets and muffin baking was sadly misunderstood by the townspeople. He was in fact, so misunderstood, that the people of the village would walk up and randomly slap him, thus the title Irving the Slapped. 
But then he became famous. His muffins were  superb, and quickly gained World Recognition. In the International Muffin Baking Competition, he made such delicious Grape-Flavored Muffins that the judges fainted with shock. 
The townspeople slowly began to respect Irving. His slaps were less frequent. The women of the village ordered his instant muffin mixes. The children requested Sock-puppets. And the Town Superiors Who Are Most Superior began to include him in their extremely superior meetings. 
But he is still slapped. 
Though not much.
THE END.
