The Proposal - Bob Davidson

A series of comic strip style panels:

1. A hand holds out a ring case displaying a large, glittering diamond ring
2. A man holds the ring out in offer, eyes closed, slight smile
3. A woman looks at the ring, apparently unimpressed
4. "No." A representation of an EKG in the flat-lines behind the man's shocked expression
5. The woman exits a door, the man seemingly shrouded in darkness.
6. The man hangs his head in defeat
7. He brings up two things. In his left hand: a notepad containing a list of some kind, with the first several crossed out. In his right, his phone. He begins dialing a number.

I'm not sure if it comes across, but the idea is this guy is going through a list of people and proposing to each one, one after another. I guess eventually someone has to say yes?

Their heads are shaped like flour sacks because I was trying a technique for drawing human faces that involves starting with a cylinder of sorts, which I thought looked interesting in itself, so I didn't complete the process and just stuck with cylinder heads. I guess it's a "choice?"

Also, the black ink blotches are not intentional. I was using a dip pen, poorly, and got some splatters. I guess that's just a part of being human-made.
