Plague of flies

By  Mary Fletcher 2020
I made this drawing after my neighbour reacted to me saying I had a plague of flies by saying he imagined me flying round the room swatting them. I let a lot of flies out of the window, but said neighbour lent me a spray in the end which worked very well. Apparantly it looks a lot like me. Its A5 crayon on ink on cartridge paper.
