Beautiful drawing Steve.
do you have to paint it?
i love it the way it is...
"Baited" breath is an "eggcorn," a misinterpretation of words that sound alike, that also means something...the original word is "bated," which is derived from "abated" and means "subdued." The reason your breath would be "subdued" is from hunting practice where you make your breath quiet lest the game hear you. You're waiting with "bated breath" for your chance at the game. But the "baited" is now so common that it is crowding out the original. There is the old joke about the cat that ate cheese so that it could wait for mice with "baited" breath.
So now we know all about bated breath, thanks Hanna. Sheila, you opened up a can of worms with that one.OK who know the origins of "can of worms".
Cole- Always great to hear from the Scottish contingent, I'll keep you posted about the house.
Memi- this was just a pencil study, I'm not painting over it. Thanks.

This made the cover for Christian Finnegan's upcoming comedy DVD, 'Au Contraire'.
