It's the bitter beer face guy!!! Always wondered what happened to him after the commercial gig lol. I'm with everyone else, your style's just great and so are your pictures.

You are so imaginative... where do you get your ideas? (or do you just have access to reeeeally good drugs? lol)

Zack (May 22, 2004)

Whoah, this really took me aback. Your crazy people are all so violently expressive. Very well drawn, per usual.

Great job fin.. this is exactly what it looked like when I used to see it. It was exactly that green you drew. This is the best I have seen you do.

warm insanity

Kloxboy (Apr 19, 2004)

This is kinda strange but just because I'm bored of the regular old in and out of things, would anyone like to finish this? You can basically do what ever you want to it as long as you draw with the head, not around it or completely over it. Kinda like, this is the blank potato now you make it Mr. Potato head (not literally). Anyone up for it? even a good beginner? Just memo me if you're interested.

Cloxboy...you did your own picture proud. I like this end result...fits the title well.

Another T-Shirt! Caption: "It's Monday again?" or "Yea,, I just finished my taxes"

emmamommalag (Apr 22, 2004)

or "Wow, I coulda had a V-8"

Aubrey (Apr 23, 2004)

or... "My God I'm never playin chicken with a car again"

This is great though. You're never afraid to draw what a lot of people feel at some point in their lives but are afraid to draw, or just don't know how to express it.. you do it very well.

Alwyn's Sundial

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 19, 2004)

Sundial/tombstone of a girl named Alwyn who died at age 3 in November of 1938
The inscription reads "Turn youre face to the sun, and the shaddowes will fall behind you."

I know this is a strange subject for a piece of art, but something about this was so appealing to me... I found it sad, beautiful, and a little bit eerie at the same time. The way it was all covered with moss, the beautiful blue stone that was carved so carefully, and the strange way things were spelled... I don't know.. it made me wonder about the little girl, and I just liked it alot.

Good one DBA..I like the rendering of the stone base to this. We have a number of very old cemetaries here with all kinds of odd inscriptions. They are very cool. I have one of those shell lights.. it's like a clamshell with a frosted pearl in side and there is a light that changes colors softly inside the pearl. It's a cool night light.

emmamommalag (Apr 20, 2004)

This is really cool. I love to tramp around in old cemeteries.. interesting reading there.

thug (Apr 21, 2004)

this is wonderful, I like old grave markers too. Some of them give you the creeps. One night back in the 80's my friends and I played frizbee golf in a cemetary at night with glow in the dark Frizbes. that was a bit creepy too

laurael (edited Sep 11, 2004)

My sister and I used to go to this really old, small cemetery, way on top of this hill down the road from where we lived, to read the grave markers (it was a spooky feeling being the only ones around and seemed to draw us in every time). One day, we stumbled upon this grave marker for a baby and I remember feeling so sad reading the words on it. It was awhile ago though, I can't remember them, but this reminds me of that...
edit, again...I got so caught up in the story that I forgot to tell you what a great job you did with the picture! Great job!

Is it moose piss? Remember when Little Nicky was supposed to do that?

I think you are dadgumned great at drawing.

mooseflower (Apr 21, 2004)

Heh heh... the story behind this is that one friday I stayed up extemely late, expecting to be able to sleep in in the morning. However, I forgot to turn off my alarm clock, which had been set for 5:30. When I woke up, I went downstairs and grunted what was supposed to be "gimme coffee" at my dad. Apparently, it came out "give me really gross concentrate orange juice", because that is what he gave me.

laurael (Apr 21, 2004)

This is drawn great! I like your style...
Uh...yeah...to answer your question of someone doing this to you...too young for coffee at the time, I guess...

davincipoppalag (Apr 22, 2004)

Lol...in college when I would get up late..often all there was to drink was stale warm beer with cigarette butts floatin in it.. oj sounds better

In the sense that I used the word, I meant he looks like he feels the weight of his responsibilities. He has that look one gets when they have important things going on in their heads.Its good.

dixielandcutie (Apr 20, 2004)

your style is so cool! complex simplicity :) great work

emmamommalag (Apr 20, 2004)

I agree with dix.. it's really cool. And he does look like something's on his mind.

laurael (May 21, 2004)

I love the colors in this one and his expression...neato.
