BTW this picture was drawn by my former wife for a "ConTeXt cookbook"  
project that rests in peace.
I never could convince her to draw some gardening lions for  
ConTeXtgarden.
At the moment I know noone who can draw and would do it for free (and  
I can't really draw myself).

Any artists here around?
My idea was a lion with watering can (and perhaps an apron) watering  
three tulips (red, black and blue) with a fence (garden!) in the  
background.

You could think of more similar pictures, perhaps featuring  
characters as garden plants, Meta the lioness having Meta-Fun  
(juggling?), lion de-bugging (with insecticide?)...

I don't like the original TeX drawings by Duane Bibby so much, and I  
think we should use a different style for ConTeXt.
I like the cooking lion, but I could image something completely  
different like pragma vector art, oil painting, manga style etc. ;-)
But it should keep a certain quality level, matching ConTeXt itself.
The artwork must not infringe any copyrights, so please don't scan  
anything printed! On the other hand the artist must agree to put her/ 
his work under the GNU free doc license.

I'd really appreciate good artwork for the garden and would be glad  
to help with scanning, cleaning, logo-ing, perhaps animating etc.

Grüßlis vom Hraban!
