Rules
- Draw the figure as one wandering line, with an eye stroke apart.
- Colour patches sit behind the line, offset 2-6 px, wobbly.
- Coral, periwinkle and white only, on warm beige paper.
- Stripes on tops are coral lines that stop short of the contour.
- No ground plane: a squiggle or a curl under the feet.
- Big joyful action poses; hands and feet as small loose loops.
