Happy New Year!

HEY GUYS!!

***UPDATE***

I probably should have advertised this way earlier, but Dumm Comics is holding a contest! Anyone, artist or not, is invited to do their own versions of Big Pants Mouse, Through the Porthole, Skadi, 1930 Nightmare Theatre, and Earthward Ho! You can do them however you want! The ones that make us laugh the most will be featured on the site. Judging is on the 10th!

Anyhow...

I hope everyone got a break from life and enjoyed the holidays! I went to Lake Tahoe to be with my family for a whole week and had a load of much needed fun and relaxation.




Winter was really beautiful this year...check out this photo I took from the porch on Christmas morning!



I am quite at home in the snow (so long as someone else is willing to shovel it for me).




One of the best things about visiting my home this month was getting to spend so much time with my big brother Pete. He's always busy with work and music and concerts and stuff, so I don't get to see enough of him. If you like heavy metal music, you should check him out!


I think all the cartoonists in LA should revolt and force the studios to move to the lake.

One more thing...

Some people have written me nice notes lately wishing me a happy Christmas and stuff, but I haven't been able to write back because I didn't have internet during my vacation. I'm really sorry, please give me a bit to calm down- I went from non-stop work to non-stop relaxing and it's kind of a shock!


I've got some posts planned for next year...here are some of the ideas:

1. That design theory/Disney reject post, if I can get smart enough to write it right
2. A lovely photo story about an axe murder, starring me and my brother
3. A new extra stupid comic...here's a preview:



OK!!!! Hope you guys will come back next year, again sorry for the lack of posts and competent responses! Have fun tonight and kiss someone at midnight!

Almost Christmas

Well, I was going to do a "Disney TV design rejects" post, but while I was going through the drawings, 2 things happened, I got really embarrassed of the drawings, and I started to think a lot about design/designers.

SO...I'm gonna wait for now to do that post. Maybe if I can, I'll do it over Christmas break. Right now all I'm really thinking about is taking a break from work and being with my family. So here is some sketchbook fodder for you!

Drawings of highschool pals. I still want to do comics about these girls!


Here are some crappy pages from when I got tipsy with Christine/Miss Withers at the Roost:

Now you all know how I draw when I am completely retarded!! Oh wait, that is all the time...

Revenge of Bacon-Lips

Here is Christine, by the way:


...and her sister Kathryn:


Some drawings of dolls and a mormon:



And here are two characters from an (maybe?) upcoming personal project that I want to do, maybe you've seen them on here before!



Yeesh, sorry I don't have anything better to post, but I've really been busy lately!! I've been doing a storyboard for the Mighty B at Nickelodeon, plus I had a few sicky patches, so I haven't been doing a lot of personal drawing, Hopefully on my break I'll get some drawing time.

Maybe this will excite you!!!!

First we have do-it-yourself craft fun...make your very own Bessie ornament! These things are all over the place at work and are very cute! Check it out!

Too tired

What should I post next, more drunken sketchbook fodder or rejected Disney TV designs from 2004? I was gonna do a nice post tonight but I'm so tired, I can't think very well.

I'm going to delete this post when I figure out what I wanna show, but in the meantime here are some drawings of my cat and his weird bacon-lips.

Super fail

Enjoy this extra-retarded "story" before I regain my wits and take it off!




Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I have a new job, and I've been sick lately!

Even more foodles

I was surprised and happy that people seemed to like my last post with untidy doodles, so here are some more! Drawing is starting to become fun again.

These ones are influenced by the illustrations in Japanese fashion magazines: It must be a fun job doing that kind of thing. The magazines I was looking at have so many different artists and styles, they don't stick to one look.

(P.S. Sorry Sean, I stole your fabric pattern that you came up with for Through The Port Hole! Forgive me.)

I really like these hillbillly drawings a lot, even though a lot of people might see them as too scribbly.
Some day when I start seriously on doing my hillbilly cartoon, I'd like it to be more loose and retarded like these drawings. They should all be cute but inbred, right?? I think so!
Maybe I'm weird but I find the occasional wall-eyed person to be very beautiful!


Here is a drawing of a girl I am myspace friends with, her name is Brie:
This girl is very cute and takes a lot of funny photos, so she's fun to draw. Her friends are cute too! This next one is not flattering, both girls are much prettier than my doodle.
Brie is also a fantastic artist, her drawings are loaded with personality and specific ideas and funny stuff. When I was her age I was doing boring anime copies, nothing so original! Go look at her gallery, you won't be disapointed. She did some hilarious Flapjack drawings!


Ok more brainless doodles:
That's it! By the way I want say thanks to the people who are still coming to my blog, it's been up a while now and I'm still posting the same kinds of things, so it's nice to know there are people who will stick around.

Also, I'm going on a mini vacation to see a highschool pal get hitched, I might not be around to moderate my comments too often!

More foodles and crap

Tonight I'm posting crappy doodles that are done while eating (foodles), talking on the phone, watching TV, etc. In other words, drawings that are completely retarded and done while not thinking about drawing.

This was the paper covering protecting my burrito leftovers from when I was at Don Barfo's getting food with pals. Christine gets to be on there (upside down) because she is the only person who knows how "Don Barfo's" got it's name. Little Ricky loves beans! I spelled "burrito" wrong. >__<;


Here is me trying to draw like a normal person


Hillbilly ladies (with opossum)


Hilly billy babies



Mermaids with seabeast


My favorite drawing I've ever done is on this page! Guess which one it is! I will tell you...it's this one:




Here's some pink, complete with notes from Ikea.


I can make red too


Little Ricky!!!!! My darling cat-face!


An important date


Same ol', same ol'


I like these




I'll end with some rare social commentary and ranting. You know what I really hate?? When big corporations try to trick you into thinking they are your friends and neighbors by adopting stupid little nicknames. It doesn't work!!! Not on me! You can't fool me! Here are some names that sound trustworthy and legit (United Airlines, National Geographic, Washington Mutual), and their retarded "no we are nice guys just like you, we promise" names. Boooooooooooooo!

Here, have some HATE

The end!
