Mother Hydra Weds Father Dagon
Saturday, May 26th, 2012
When I was done coloring this and Monday’s zombies, I realized that I’d managed to do only 2 drawings, but color 4 figures with 7 heads between them. Whew!
This one was also done specifically to be a card, this time to bring a little Cthulhu to your wedding season. Dagon is the big bad from Shadows Over Innsmouth, and while Lovecraft’s Hydra doesn’t get a lot of description, it was easy to adapt the classic many-headed monster of myth to this purpose. I especially enjoy the boutonniere pinned straight to Dagon’s chest.
Yeah, I’m a little morbid.

Zombie Dad Plays Catch
Monday, May 21st, 2012
I didn’t manage anything specific for Mother’s Day this year, but I have two cards for geek dads on Father’s Day. The first one was my Harry Potter art from February, and now I’ve got zombies to round out the selection.
I made the zombie kid somewhat gender neutral, so anyone can feel good suggesting that their dad would still play catch with them even if they were both to become the brain-hungry undead. And if you use a head for catch, then it’s a game and a snack after!

Tenth Doctor sketch 1
Sunday, May 20th, 2012
I have finally accepted the inevitability that I’ll end up drawing Doctor Who cartoons, and as such worked up this little sketch of the Tenth Doctor. I’m not sure I’ve quite got his chin and mad hair working yet, but the costume is just right.

Doctor Who Bookmark 1
Saturday, May 12th, 2012
I’ve optimistically numbered this 1, assuming I’ll get the urge to do more Doctor Who bookmarks in the future. The Eleventh Doctor is contemplating his lot with his TARDIS parked a bit precariously on a hill, and not liking his options at the moment. But don’t worry, he’ll figure some way out.
He’s the Doctor. It’s what he does.

Above, a close-up of our pouting Doctor. Below, he’s hanging out with my Free Comic Book Day book from last Saturday’s outing, an excellent reminder that I love sequential art and ought to do more of it.

Stuck in the Tubes
Saturday, May 5th, 2012
After a week of planets, I couldn’t resist doing another vaguely circular piece of art for my Saturday Morning Cartoon. This absurd little comic is just here to make you smile today, and possibly shake your head at what a silly person I am.
Go on, you know you want to. It’s okay.

Cartoon: Jocelyne Leach
Saturday, April 28th, 2012
I like to think Jocelyne’s cartoon really shows how far I’ve come with this style of art. She’s doing a simple yoga pose with the legs, has her logo on her tank top, and is toasting us with a tasty green smoothie in her left hand. I think this tall, skinny image is going to go in her sidebar to welcome guests to her website.
Here’s to you, Jocelyne, for being a great client!

Dr. Watson says: Do Not Bend
Sunday, April 22nd, 2012
This little Sharpie doodle adorned some Sherlock cards off to their new home, though by now I’ve already forgotten whose package he was on! His chin is pretty manly here, heh, but that’s how it goes when you’re writing with permanent marker on wobbly plastic.
Hope you’re having a great weekend!
