Lazy Lobster- Illustration Friday "Fleeting 1"


This is what I'd rather be doing on a Monday. Perhaps by an ocean beach somewhere on the North East coast? Too bad it's rainy and chilly here in the Midwest today. At least rain means Spring without any more snow. :)

This lobster is fleeting between daydream sleep and awake.

Illustration Friday- Talisman (Tally Man)


So when I first read this week's word, I thought it said "Tally Man". You know, like the Tally Man from the Banana Boat Song? Seemed like a pretty strange theme to me. But then I realized it was "Talisman" like the good luck charm. Even so, I thought my mistake was funny so I illustrated a drawing for Tally Man. If I get ambitious, I'll draw the real Talisman drawing. Here is a Tally Man carrying a backpack(probably full of bananas) from a banana tree at sunrise. Daylight come and me wan' go home...

If you want to hear the song, here is a link to the Beetlejuice movie version on Youtube- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4eoMxGDEJA

I'm Late, I'm Slacking and Way Behind

So I've been slacking a ton on Illustration Friday lately. The last few weeks have been sort of hectic! So I think some of the words I've missed are "Legendary, Poise, Intricate, Subtract and Breezy" I'm currently drawing one illustration that will combine them all. No word left behind!




Anyhow, I hurt my eye this morning while attempting to do makeup when I was really tired. (Not recommended by the way) Here is a quick cartoon graphic about it. That eyeliner and mascara is a real killer!
