I don't really like either of them, but I really don't like Spencer, so Spilliaert. (I need to work up a lesson on "really".)

I like the top one by Spencer a lot. See, he's not only goofy! Anyway, a vote for the sometimes-goofy Spencer over the always-broody Spilliaert.

Spencer. As I said before, it's sad that the other guy couldn't afford more colors for his paintbox.

This one started close, but Spencer runs away from Spillaert in late voting to take the win, nine votes to four.
