That was a really fun solve. All kinds of white space to make it challenging.#2: Belita (belita) on Dec 5, 2022 [SPOILER]
Fun solve, but what is it? A blue man wearing a red cape running through a lightning storm at night?#3: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Dec 5, 2022 [SPOILER]
You need to back up to look at it. The red fingers are holding chalk outlined in blue. The hand is writing with the chalk (white lines on the blackboard)#4: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Dec 5, 2022 [SPOILER]
I'm guessing it's Jacques Cousteau.#5: gregg licht (lgreg) on Dec 6, 2022 [SPOILER]
Strangely, I just watched The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou which is a comedy parody of his life (starring Bill Murray)
Joe, you're close to the film-maker's name. I was going for a pun related to the image (apologies in advance).#6: gregg licht (lgreg) on Dec 6, 2022 [SPOILER]
BTW, I like that Wes Anderson film and especially the acoustic guitar tracks by the Brazilian guitar player.
Oops, somehow I double posted.#7: Jota (jota) on Dec 6, 2022
I also thought Jacques Cousteau.#8: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Dec 6, 2022
Great puzzle. Challenging but no need for fancy advanced logic. This and Joe's Itch are the only puzzles larger than 20 x 20 that I have tried as my eyes are not terribly cooperative anymore. But I took a chance and tried these as Joe and Gregg always make such great puzzles.#9: gregg licht (lgreg) on Dec 6, 2022
Thanks for your kind comments, Norma Dee.#10: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Dec 7, 2022 [SPOILER]
Joe and Jota, your guesses are very close.
The filmmaker of The Life Aquatic, of course, is Wes Anderson. :)#11: gregg licht (lgreg) on Dec 7, 2022
True Kristen, but it's a pun I was going for, revealed below.#12: gregg licht (lgreg) on Dec 7, 2022 [SPOILER]
The filmmaker is Chalk Cousteau. I won't apologize, since I did that in advance up above.#13: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Dec 9, 2022
Ahh. Sometimes our intended puns can be too subtle for the group, like when I tried to portray "Secret Asian Man" with a portrait of Charlie Chan. ^_^#14: Koreen (mom24plus) on Dec 9, 2022
Clever, and excellent representation! :-)#15: derby (Derby) on Dec 10, 2022
