These are what I finally put up on my wall. I painted them when I was eighteen, probably influenced by Michael Foreman and Tove Jansson (hence the absence of a mouth) to illustrate a story that I'd found in an old school magazine written when I was seven, probably nfluenced by Spike Milligan and, I don't know, pinball machines? It's called "My Island":
My Island is very dusty
and now and then you see winged lions with gold glossy manes and wings made of silk.
They are very tame creatures. They are vagetarians.
