this is what happens.

it's funny because it's true.

...for the birds.

i saw a picture of this bird and it was cute.

A cat and some text.

I went to Hawaii last week. I brought a sketchbook but I hate drawing on planes and never had any free time once I was there.

But I did these two little drawings on the plane before I got sick.


it's more true than you know.


still thinking about my birthday, I guess.

That's it.

the wild wild north (pole).

This is a sketch for a piece that I'll be posting soon...


make with the presents, partner.

Tentacle Cat.

everyone says "cute" and I was expecting a "gross!"

she's not a lizard.

two purple (ish) drawings.

I had some time to kill and no paper. I couldn't have that. So I scoured the area for a notebook and a pen, which I was able to find, and I drew these...

...in purple. Although now they look totally blue.


nii-iiice hat!


this guy is a sleeze. that's all i can say.

cute temptation.

it's not always a bad thing to give in to temptation.

I think you've got something in your hair...

his taste in hair accessories is questionable at best.

rock out with your bad self.

Sorry it's been a minute...


you know this kitten is a-rockin', because he is without a shirt. bad-itude defined.

A mystery!

Holy crap! It's says it's been two months since I've posted on this blog! That ain't right, I know I've got some sketches and doodles! So either I didn't post them, or they got deleted. Most likely the first one! I'll have to dig them up! A mystery!

Little T's, Sweet Prince.

Go to Little T's for some late night nachos. Open until 3 AM! You can draw on the tables! Old-school MCAD hangout extraordinaire!

I drew a picture my friend on the table. I thought it was pretty convincing.


sweet prince is right!


compare and contrast.

Go, Go, Bionic!

This is Bionic Commando, AKA Nathan "R.A.D." Spencer. Capcom just released a remake of the original Bionic Commando that is so good, I had to do some fan art.


this actually doesn't look like Bionic Commando, it looks more like Super Joe (the agent B.C. is tasked with saving in the game) with a bionic arm. but Super Joe is just so awesome.

You broke it, now what?

This drawing inspired this guy and even this little guy, but through the amazing technology of me being lazy, he wasn't posted until well after the other two!


nice shoes, shoe dude!

Weird things happen in the Vacuum of space.

In space, no one can hear the weird space-fish crack your helmet open and slither out...


watch out! in your head!

two drawings for two children.

Lindsay sponsors two children in Mexico. She sends them letters, drawings and presents, too.

She asked me to do a quick drawing for each (a boy and a girl), so I did these. They were on a piece of paper she gave me, hence the personalized stationery.


a cute kitty with cute ice cream and a cute bird with a stupid hat.


that dog is a dog-gone bone-er.

you'd make a better door than a window.

We went to Dr. Sketchy's Twin Cities on Sunday. It was busy, and I couldn't see a few of the poses.


fact.

I had to make do.

...it means you play videogames a lot.

This is (very) loosely based on a friend. He does, on occasion, poop sock.


wear it loud, wear it proud.

They're not real, but they're still my friends.

There's this little game called WoW. I've been known to play it, but I can't find the time lately. I haven't logged in for months, maybe...

The sad part is I feel like my little characters are in there, waiting for me. If only they could log into my life. And help me finish all my work.


he looks like he's crying more emotionally than he is because he doesn't have a jaw...

Na-Nasty Nas

This is loosely based on a friend who was working at the Tea Garden with us. The inspiration might end with the unshaven face and hair flip.


is that a lightbulb skull? made sense at the time, i guess.

He doesn't own that shirt. It doesn't exist, and I don't even know if he's a Nas fan or what.

walk in the (through the) clouds.

those darn hipster kids and their precious clouds. clouds belong in the skies, not in our dreams.

snake trouble.

today's post is dedicated to my friend Chris C for reasons that will make no sense without more information.


this guy has a sweater that's too tight, and a snake that's too big. but he don't care. it's more just annoying.

tremor(s)!

what's worse than getting eaten by a tremor? getting eaten by a tremor and his flying cousin.

frogs know about the ways of women.

I drew this in the car. Drawing in the car is hard, very possibly harder than drawing on an airplane.


spoiler : the secret is in the finely groomed mustache.

don't they have eight?

cute-but-weird-opus.

the end.

I started drawing in a tiny moleskin that Lindsay gave me almost two years ago.

I drew in a whole lot of other sketchbooks since then, but this one was always my favorite. I only drew in it when I wanted to just have fun and draw. Not to plan, not for work, not for a project, not to take notes, not to sketch or scribble. Only when I wanted to draw.

And now I have a tiny little book full of drawings I really love. But today I did my last drawing in it. And it was kind of sad.

I've got a pile of sketchbooks unopened or 1/2 full, but they're not the same.

momento mori...

this is a special day...

only YOU can prevent spontaneously combusting birds...

maybe this is what a phoenix looks like. but i don't know, i never really paid attention in history or biology or whatever.

the Monkees are an inspiration to us all.

Whoa, back up! An awesome dude is entering the room.

You know he's cool because he's piloted by a tiny kitten! What a stylish cap, little kitty!


that kitten wears the little cap because he's a huge Michael Nesmith fan.

batman+cloud

I have a lot of pets. All of them are cute (excluding the fish). But Batman, my Chinchilla, is the cutest of all. She's as soft as a cloud, too.


takes one to know one.
