The Grim Reaper

Just toying around with the popularized image of the Death aka. The Grim Reaper. I was working around the idea of the Reaper being a "friendly" reminder to live one's life to the fullest. On the banner which reads, "Omnia Mors Aequat" is latin for "Death Equalizes All". In his right hand, the Reaper holds an hourglass (time) that is half full, and in his left - the scythe. If I had a speech bubble in the drawing it would have read, "I'll be coming for you...but you still have time. The glass is still half full." Drawn with pen and inks on heavy A4 catridge paper.
