You're Invited

Last night I threw myself a pity party.

Only one person knows what's inside.

cowboydog's drawing of me

No, he isnt a dog with a hat. This is Cowboydog (or Baggelboy). He puts all our drawings to shame, and is the subject of my sixth Portrait Swap.

This is an old painting. The goblins are supposed to be pissed off because they wanted to eat some fairies for dinner, not mushrooms.

This one is available as a postcard, in my card shop.

I have the next five days off from my soul-stomping-spirit-crushing job, so Im sure fresh material is on the way, no more re-runs!

Happy Mother's Day!

The card I made for my mom may not be as good as Steve's, but as they say it's the thought that counts.

And Mom, if youre reading this (which isnt likely), sorry the card hasnt arrived yet. I dont have your address.

Another Portrait Party. This time with Steve Patton.

Pancake Chefs

I drew this one morning while at IHOP with the Paper Sluts.

Press the GREEN button... please.

Sitting in my attic.


I was writing a song to annoy co-workers with.


I dont know what this is.


Working out the features of my new comic character, using my reflection in the grocery scanner.

My Best Isnt Good Enough!

I got sick of my Moleskine so while I was in Montreal I bought a new small notebook for work. The paper is thinner and less intimidating. I dont have much downtime at my job (with all the scanning and bagging I have to do). These are the quick scribbles I can get in every now and then.

EDIT: They arent really quotes, they're more like obsessive thoughts I repeat in my head over and over until I write them down and move on to the next one.

No Tounge Tongue

switch's drawings of me

Switchsky, my northern neighbor, and I exchanged portraits. This is my fourth swap. Ive also been trading the portraits in the mail afterward, which is fun fun.

Edit: See The Portrait Party for info on this game.

From an actual conversation with Liz.

End of an Era

I thought I should design this, just in case.

Dry Mouth

My third Portrait Swap. This one was between me and Steve. He is the one who brought you my idea for Illustration Friday Night.

Remember! When participating in a portrait swap via the internet there are a few things you should keep in mind when taking your reference photo.

1. Use strong directional lighting. It helps me see the planes of your mug. Natural daylight through a window works best. Get away from your computer screen, the blue glare does not count.
2. Get your whole head in the shot. Do not skim the top of your head or your chin.
3. Try to take high resolution photos and minimize the blurriness. If this means you have to get back on your meds to get rid of your shakes do it!
4. Do not send me nudes. Jesus.

More Saliva

Darryl and I drew each other. He considers me to be evil, and I have to agree.

Portrait Parties are sweeping the internet. Join us.
