And The Mysteries of Kit Williams


Masquerade, Page by Page

Painting #7: Eclipse!


Painting #7 BORDER PHRASE: "Round and round, I follow you, round and round, you follow me."

BARBED LETTER WORD: FIEND

RED LETTER WORD: FOUL

WORD FROM THE MASTER RIDDLE: YELLOW

HIDDEN HARE: Smack dab in the middle.

CLUES & COMMENTS: One of Kit's least concrete clues: the ant near the hare is meant to imply Ampthill, which means "ant-hill." He used the ant clue a second time on the Sunday Times drawing.

I originally thought that that moon's odd finger positions were merely sign language; they may be (isn't her right hand showing the combination of the letters I, L, and Y, which is an American Sign Language shortcut for "I love you?" Makes perfect sense in a storybook of lost love) but upon seeing the solution I realized how crucial her hands were in this portrait. And for what it's worth, the bugs have always creeped me out.
