gasconade:::01.05.12


gasconade \ gas-kuh-NEYD\, noun:

1. Extravagant boasting; boastful talk.

verb: 1. To boast extravagantly; bluster


I honestly first thought of one of my boastful brothers, who has been dubbed "pigeon" (though sometimes 'peacock' depended on how much he puffs up his chest). He would've liked it entirely too much if I had done a drawing of him, so I settled with the cliched "proud as a peacock" for today. I transposed medallions in place of the peacock feather to represent achievement, and how nicely they will be displayed when he fluffs up his extravagant train feathers in pride.

Not too shabby for being sick, if I may so boast.
