it wasn't a dream

Gartenzwerg REBOOT
OVERLORD'S NOTE: This item was previously presented incomplete
The image now present is Gartenzwerg REBOOT.
(Here's the first draft ... Vanilla flavored!)

Thanks to the powers of Sabrina, the above image materialized in the Shameless corridor today. It wasn't a fancy replicator sort of materialize, but a slow laborious dissolve that smelled of lichen. It started in the living room, next to that lamp you hate. At first I thought the image was one of those fogs that creep in about midday and make you come up with a few hours missing (it's not just me, right?), but then I saw the gnome hats and realized it was picnic time. Won't you join us?

Don't do this.                                                                                                                    04.23.13  @  6PM

The thing about drawing a cat pooping is that the more time you spend on it, the more you cultivate a sense of futility in your existence. For some reason the doodling nodule of my neocortex wasn't channeling cat-shape today (I kept yelling "I CAN'T DRAW CATS? WHO AM I?!"), so this Awkward Stare bit became a chore. However, I did manage to watch about 20 episodes of "Classic Dr. Who" on Netflix while drawing a cat pooping, so the day was far from wasteful. 
This doodle was inspired by a conversation between Katie, Daniel,  and Jacki on the most recent episode of Blipcast (about five minutes in).

SPARKS!!!!1
* Consider this a sneak peek, but not a promise. Sparks and GG will have various incarnations and it has always been my goal to confuse the f*ck out of you. I won't ask you to change if you do the same for me. Compromise is like a box of chocolates. Meet SPARKS! *

I'm afraid I can't describe the process used to create the model reference for the base sketches on this piece, as I am tired of people throwing up when I am talking to them. Suffice to say, what IF two people's faces were melded together in an innovative yet messy experiment in my underground dungeon lab? And what if those two people were Daniel and Katie from the podcast The Boring Lives of Interesting People aka BLiPcast?

Well, now we know . . .

This is an old one. 

This drawing may date back to 2009, when you were just a twinkle on a grasshopper's knee. (I believe that's how the saying goes.) I haven't been using my drawing tablet much, but have been drawing on Actual Physical Paper with Actual Physical Pens & Pencils. It feels like time travel. Anyway, I have a bunch of  NEW! drawings to post on here, but I do not have any kind of rendering device that could  transfigure my physical illustrations into pixel pockets for internet-based consumption . . . 

So for now you shall have to settle for a few scraps of  bedraggled low-fi sketches, torn from the grips of digital skeletons slouching in virtual closets of years past. Please be gentle, that's a first printing.

A girl in flames
in another's embrace
knocked flat by a breeze
you awaken alone
ice on your shoulders
a hole in your chest

Some things have changed.
I'm going to have a lot more time on my hands.

While walking in midtown, I overheard a fellow on the street proclaim, "Yeah, just bacon-wrap those bitches!" 
How could I not draw that? 

Welcome to 2013, by the way. Good to see you made it.

Hark, friend, hold your tongue for a heartbeat. 
Dost thou descry yonder pale ghost? 
Ah, tis not a ghost, but the Knight of Prawns. 
Would that it were a ghost, perhaps. 
Needst we anguish?
Or shouldst we maketh nice and pray for affinity?
Let us tread hither with the prudence of the wise and wary. 
I will be but one step aft all the way; onward . . .
