Roller Derby Girl
May 26th, 2010
There’s a new pic in the illustration section of my Portfolio.
When I was on the plane to the US more than a month ago I watched the very charming “Whip It” with Ellen Page, Juliette Lewis etc. directed by Drew Barrymore. I realized I’d love to see a true game of Roller Derby. So I went with some friends in Portland!
It was F.U.N.!!! It was silly, it didn’t take itself too serious and it was very very entertaining. Also I really liked their outfits. They could have worn more make- up, but I guess it gets really sweaty and it doesn’t make much sense.
So, that’s what got me inspired to do this pic!:)
If I was 15 years younger, single, and a cartoon, I’d so hit that.
Hehe, funny, somebody said the same thing to me once!:D
Heh … I just watched a “Food Network Challenge” where the competitors had to make cakes based on rollerderby teams. Alas, the cable company I get my tv signal from does not broadcast rollerderby. Used to watch all the time when I was younger – we got it on a couple of channels where I grew up.
I WANT MY ROLLERDERBY DANGIT!
