A black and white pencil drawing depicts two people sitting in a boat on a small lake. A lone house sits in the background along the shoreline. A tree stands tall beside the house, with low brush and bushes growing next to it. The sun is full in the sky. The shadows of three birds are silhouetted in front of the sun, flying off into the distance and disappearing into the horizon. A small country church sits atop a ledge to the right of the lake. A steeple reaches up from the roof. A fence winds along the cliffside and unkempt grass grows next to it. A tall tree with big branches full of leaves is behind the church, with another trio of birds flying off into the skyline.

This is a black-and-white hand-drawn illustration of a wide, exaggerated smile. It’s just the mouth, nothing else. No nose, eyes, or face. The lips curve sharply upward at each corner. It’s almost as if the large grin is forced. The upper lip is thin, while the lower lip is full. The mouth is open, revealing two neat rows of big, rounded teeth.
