My Illustration Friday attempt for "robot".
When I’m stuck on a topic, really stumped for ideas, I ask Mr You for suggestions. This week his robot suggestions included both,
- an arse rowing a boat = row-butt
- and a baby’s bottle filled with fish eggs = roe-bot
As interesting as those ideas are, now seems as good a time as any to reveal the blueprint for my concept robot fish. Don’t ask me why.
We both thought an illustration of Shakira’s awesome robot dance / bellydance combination from her new video clip (the one that goes”Shakira! Shakira! Oh Oh My hips don’t lie”) would be hard to beat. But quite frankly, I’m not sure I’d be able to do that special dance justice.
We love Shakira! We love her in that way that you love a reality TV show that is sooooo bad it crosses from terrible to brilliant. The first time I fell in love with Shakira was while watching her dance in the “Whenever, Where ever” video clip. I loved that soooo much that each time it came on the telly I mimicked all those special moves, and can now perform them on request… should the day ever come. (fact!)
Don’t get me wrong, I think she is beautiful and has the most delicious figure. I prey each night that she is actually making up those songs and dance moves in a cheeky tongue-in-cheek manor. If that was the case, I think she and I could be best friends til we die.
Shakira! Shakira! Shakira!

I like the robo fish! (I do wonder what your row butt might have looked like) :0)
Absolutely COOL! Love the blue print idea and also the off-the-wall associations! Great work! Mary :-)
I had a fun time reading your post...some many great and silly possibilities! The blueprint of the robo fish is an excellent choice...I love the drawing itself, but it is just perect rendered as a blueprint. Good one!
This is just awesome! I love the blue-print look! I think you did a wonderful job!
I love fish so much! This made me smile.
Great story and wonderful, delicate drawing. I would still like to see that Shakira drawing come to life someday, sounds intriguing!
Wow...such a beautiful robofish drawing.
Quite interesting how the fish sneaked into your thoughts despite all that Shakira going on! I think she is fantastic. I love "Objection" and the way she moves to that. And now that you say it I am trying to imagine how on earth she creates these wiggly hip/butt-up- and-downs, does she start in slow-motion and accelerates pace?
As far as I interpret the robot fish it begins moving as soon as the stream floats in. I just can´t figure out what the little submarine is all about, or would that be a switch?
Cool!
That's some robot fish! I really like the blueprint technical style.
Nice! It's refreshing to see a "non-humanoid" design, and like everybody else says, the blueprint idea is really neat.
this is fantastic!!! love it! shakira rules!
ooohh.. ma'am, I love that fish.
can't believe i didn't comment on this before. your drawing is lovely, and your narrative really got me laughing. sounds like life is fun at your house.
