\nOriginally uploaded by royblumenthal<\/a>. <\/span><\/div>\n

Back in high school, my biology teacher wore transluscent blouses with a flesh-coloured bra. She was a real looker, with a hot bod. And a maltese poodle called ‘Muffy’. Seriously.<\/p>\n

And she was rumoured to ‘choose’ a matric every year to have sex with.<\/p>\n

In my matric year, it wasn’t me.<\/p>\n

Several years after I left school, I found out that she married one of her ex-matrics. A dude about two years ahead of me. Lucky fellow.<\/p>\n

When the Illustration Friday<\/a> topic hit my inbox this week, I knew EXACTLY how I was going to interpret ‘Clean’.<\/p>\n

Yup. For anyone who’s a little vision impaired, the teacher cleaning the board here is NOT wearing a transluscent top with a flesh-coloured bra. She does NOT have a dog called ‘Muffy’. And in THIS version, she selects ME!<\/p>\n

See… I’ve made a clean sweep.<\/p>\n

This painting was made in ArtRage 2.2<\/a> on my Toshiba Tecra M4 tablet PC in my lounge, on a tripod, with me listening to The Violent Femmes more loudly on a Sunday night than my neighbours ought to tolerate. Check out swipenclean.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As reference, I used a pic by Dave Sackville<\/a> on stock.xchang<\/a> called ‘Classroom<\/a>‘. Thanks Dave.<\/p>\n
