I once went to a Leunig puppet performance, where life-sized characters of his enacted various poems and cartoon pieces he had written (this was sometime in the 1990s in Melbourne). It was a beautiful and whymsical performance. Gorgeous music too. I find his later works are much more light and joyful, as opposed to his earlier stuff that was a little darker and more cynical. But all of it is insightful and inspirational :)Bechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13723810605485842824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32932797.post-58501530191551063822008-04-28T10:27:00.000+10:002008-04-28T10:27:00.000+10:00he's a genius.

And of course when he was over for dinner the other week I'm sure he would have doodled all over the table cloth, which by now you have stretched over a canvas, hanging above the fireplace. ;)<BR/><BR/>I love your line about his works being whispers in the termites ears. He would love that too!flossy-phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15207372419069284680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32932797.post-79819898070394974952008-04-28T09:59:00.000+10:002008-04-28T09:59:00.000+10:00Leunig is awesome.

It is such good thinking - the letting go and using the past as strength for the future.
