puppy party

This past week my parents had to go to a wedding so I ended up staying at their house to dog sit. Being home alone at the place of my middle/high school years not only inspired me to stand with the fridge open, but to allow the dogs on every possible surface and eat ice cream for breakfast. I also took the liberty to sit pajama clad in the sun and draw the dogs (2 out of 3) all morning and not clean my closet AT ALL! It was fabulous and felt so much better than doing it at my apartment. Kinda like how eating someone else's lunch taste better than the one you packed for yourself.
Cheers to the little things that make all the difference.

something that's not a dirty boy

The top is Joe Flood's Cricket all goth lollied up.

Chester, me too. Hang in there buddy.

Obviously very important notes for serious art business.
The top one is a panel of Chester (who is currently uh... trying his best? ) of 'The Third Horsemen.'

two very good things (it's no joke)

Might as well get this in while it's still April 1.
Firstly, I make pancakes like a god. Secondly, Elvis IS a god. That's his nose poking out in the picture my mom calls 'baby seal waiting to be clubbed.'

does that come in mahogany?... i'll take three!

Thanks to my very fine temp job, I have discovered the joy of reading the "National Business Furniture" magazine. Purple prose pale next to this work (AND it has illustrations to boot!) That being said, I decided to augment it for my own amusement and mid word bubble I thought, 'what the hell? might as well use it for a post.'





And yes, I do laugh at my own jokes.

wait a (new york) minute...

When did I have the time to draw so frivolously? Apparently I made time 'cause these are pretty recent. I had them underneath some 3rd Horseman thumbnail pages (which boast at being at the top of the pile right now.)
But, yah it's a moody/pensive Chester and a readin' noodle eatin' fool. I put it a quick background on the pencil drawing right before I scanned it and am looking forward to inking it. I'd also like to put color on the both of them as well but let's not put the cart before the horse.




p.s. sorry about all those lousy spams on my comments (shame on you spammers!) I changed my settings so there shouldn't be a problem anymore.

i'm pretty sure my brain fell out my ear...

I've been working temp jobs as of late to keep my head above water (as well as to get out of the ol' homestead once in a while.) And while I'm out in the 9-5 workforce like a real adult, I've been reading perhaps triple my body weight in books. It's absolutely delightful and I've been trying to mix up my genres as much as possible. For the most part I've digested some pretty tasty words but last week I seem to have it the wall of walls. No offense to my typeface loving tomodachi, but 'The Anatomy of Typeface' may be the most boring thing I've put my face to this year.
