Anna Bloom: Let them talk!


 "You are - - are you? People say, you would - - let them talk, they don't know how the church tower stands."

I made a lot of abortive attempts to come up with this one. In the end the picture came out of a quick scribble with a biro. I thought the covered mouth and the pointing finger are sure signs of the gossip. After doing this I can see something of a "Paar" by Karl Hubbuch that I have spotted recently. I put this pair outside the church because... Well it saved me the trouble of having to deal with that metaphor directly in a separate print. And also church-goers can be a bit judgy sometimes, can't they?
