mighty (hungry) mouse.

mouse-mouse loves ice cream more than you could ever dream of loving ice cream. don't even front.

EDIT : I went back to this drawing a little bit. Above is the most recent version. The old one is slightly more cute, and can be found here.

You must be a nerd if you wear glasses.

Question : Is he a nerd? Or a jock? Or a jock posing as a nerd? Or a nerd who got all thick-necked in some crazy science experiment gone wrong?

Answer : None of the Above. He is familiar, though.


this reminds me of... some guy from somewhere.

Messy Baby.

parents should teach their babies some manners. also, they shouldn't let them become huge monsters.

I Love Street Fighter 2, I Just Really Hate Zangief.

like zangief, i am a manly man.

I don't really hate Zangief as a character. I like his tiny undies. I like his luxurious chest hair and manicured beard. I even like the cape he throws off his shoulders at the start of a round.

But if you've ever played Marvel Vs Capcom 2 with a friend who abused his Mech-Zangief transformation, you'd hate him too.

P.S. - Thanks to Lupe Fiasco for the title to this post.

plane party.

Q : What do you get when you draw on a dark plane during a bumpy flight?

A : Some crap like this...


the seat was empty, but it would have been awesome if bert were in it. i bet he'd turn around and say "will you please stop kicking my seat? i'm try-ing to sleep!".

Yeah. Bert is awesome.

Frozen-Brain Pun.

This was a funny pun while on the freezing and swanky streets of Manhattan.

Maybe less-so after the fact.


get it? kind of like the brand? only different.

Space-Chop!

...from the corner of his vision-receptors, he saw the space-rock move. It didn't move much. A space-inch or less, he calculated. But it had definitely moved.

Our brave space-hero stood motionless. Waiting in the frigid darkness of the Moon, his danger-sensors pulsed red. Trouble was most certainly near. Someone... no someTHING... was underneath that space-rock.

Slowly, RangerRobo raised his robo-hand, preparing for a massive Karate Chop...


oh, i can't look!

Letter to Water.

Dear Water,

How's it going? I'm pretty good. Sometimes I wish it wasn't so cold out. But I bet you don't like it either since it freezes you and stuff.

I just wanted to write to tell you that you're really rad. I like taking showers, and without you that'd be impossible. I like the way you and soap get all foamy. Sometimes I use the foam to make a beard or a tall hat.

Also, you're a total lifesaver at the gym. When I get all thirsty on the rowing machine and a need a break, I can always count on you to make me feel awesome again. Hey, isn't it funny that the rowing machine is like pretending to row a boat on you? I just thought of that.

So anyway, I just wanted to say 'thanks' and 'keep up the good work'. I try really hard to not pollute you and stuff, even though it's hard sometimes. I hope you and all the penguins along really well. I like them too.

I made this picture to show you that even if I order a soda when I go out, I still love you the most.


water : you rule!

Your B.F.F.
Chris

this drawing makes me so tired.

i wish i could fall asleep in the clouds too. instead i have to sleep on a pile of dog hair and cat litter.

what a man.

Who could resist those big doe-eyes?

live and learn.

i should have gotten the "a" sweater. but "w" seemed so perfect at the time.

This character is actually related to someting that I'm working on right now. More on that soon in my process blog.

how's the weather down there?

This little dude ended up on my notes somehow. I think he might be a frog or something.


being tall isn't that rad. i imagine...

Ghost-Proof Suit from Mexico

I just got back from Mexico. It was a blast of righteous awesome to my face. But it was a lot of travel.

I hate drawing on airplanes, buses, trains or cars, but I did anyway. Because it's more boring not to.

Here's the only drawing from the trip that I like even a little bit:


ghosts are a constant worry for most of us. especially those of us without our own ghost-proof suit.

Not very Mexico-y, I guess.

the rhyme game.

oh, i love that game!

a dark and stormy night.

it takes all kinds.

going back for seconds.

Here's a non-mutilated bunny for all the folks who were offended by the mutilated one. And there were kind of a lot.


hey, cute bunny! you shouldn't go back for seconds, you're kind of chubby.

dirt + baby = bathtime

babies are gross and dirty. dirty babies.

oh thank goodness.

he was getting worried.

live and die for hair gel.

this dude is stoked for his perfectly coifed spikes.

Monster Love.

Some monsters are full of love. Most of full of children. Children that they ate the night before.


he's a big, sloppy pile of greasy, slimy love.

face sucker.

what a kisser.

sweet like candy.

he was actually more of a failure than he was sweet.

oh, that dude.

Update : I added a little color to and grit. Check out the final in my process blog.


tough guy. i guess.

In the Army! Now!

did you ever see the documentary In the Army Now*?

*Not a real documentary. Actually a hilarious 1994 Paul Shore buddy-flick.

Noodle time.

his camouflage hides him in his natural habital... spaghetti.

sweater haters.

other cats make fun, teasing that his sweater's too big, but they're all just haters. haters of the game.

brain bubble.

And now back to the good old moleskin notebook.


his new brain gave him a renewed sense of self-worth...

I love that tiny little book.

stab a bean.

Another meeting doodle.


i guess i hate beans or something.

read that back to me...

In true A Day in the Life spirit, the following drawings were taken from the notes I took during a meeting. So they are random and I don't know how / why I drew them.


ahhh... moose... guy... who thinks... he's the life of the party?


umm... snake... guy... with anime-ish hair...

Yes. Indeed.

seed mooch.

you're just using me for my seed collection, seed-lover.
