The Moon!

The Most Incredible Cat

un perro en un tejado


I made this for some ninos while in Mexico. I meant to leave it behind, but I suppose I forgot.
It is a dog on a roof.

The Virgin and Her Demon Friends

An odd fascination of mine, a strange obsession almost, is Catholic veneration art, especially of the Virgin Mary. Especially odd as I am violently not-a-catholic. I often find drawings of mine ending up with halos or the like, and sometimes just straight turning into virginesque depictions. The whole "threatened by demons" thing really interests me as I have know idea where it has come from - some deep seated and unresolved personal resolutions, I suppose.
What follows are some of these apparitions that I am personally fond of.

Sir Ian's Epiphany


My second go at India Inkin'. The text is direct translation from some Polish.
I have no ideas as to other possible messages, so I'm assuming this is the proper interpretation.
Does anyone even remember Sir Ian Blair? Why is he (somewhat) here?

Alice et le Chat du Cheshire



Decided to learn to ink things with India Ink and a brush. This action-packed tale of Alice and her whacky friend is my first go at it. So far I'm diggin' the medium.

Faces of No One in Particular

I frequently find myself drawing the faces of the people around me, an exercise which almost infallibly degenerates away from actually looking like the person to become some strangely-colored and exaggerated interpretation of how I feel about what I feel they are feeling.


"A Fairly Standard Beauty" - This wonky-eyed androgen came from a pursuit to sketch a very pretty lady; until I became obsessed with exaggerating her proportions and expression.



"Green-Haired Dirty Thoughts" - A semi combined portrait of both me and my lover of the time, simply trying to capture the sillyness of thinkin' bout dirty things.



This bizarrely-colored self portrait (ish) is actually quite large in real life. I unfortunately do not actually own any clothes that look like that.



Same standard beauty, more departure from reality.



This odd and nipply monster sprung from an attempt at emulating a rather striking and melodramatic display of uncertainty by a peer of mine.



A portrait in highlighter about laughing at trashy humor.

Chronicles of Insomnia

Back around the beginning of the year I was having major problems with insomnia. I decided to draw about it on what I believe was the third sleepless night in a row, and this is the result:

The Fruits of Education


This is a picture of the apocalypse I drew, rife with scathing social commentary.




A true little story about swearing in class drawn some time ago.
This was the same class period I drew the apocalypse.

Mark it up.


Check out this dinosaur by a lake.



A picture of a rainy day.

A Man and the Sea


Drawn during cosmo with a ballpoint.

The Tragedy of the Missing Wings


This one is from months and months ago, but I just heard from the person who inspired this conversation and thus I was compelled to search my archives for this strange tale of a fallen angel.

BirdFriends BirdForever


This may just be true despite my best efforts to the contrary.

Personal Deviations

I thought these two drawings belonged in cahoots as they both began as portraits of people but quickly deviated into something completely different. They still hold essences of the person but it is secret to only me. Haha!

Oh yeah, this was going to be a self-portrait, but then...I don't know, maybe some day.



Socks? The 80s? Bizarre expressions? How did I get here?

Criminalia


The very face of mal intent.


Just pure mean.

A Story About a Cat



The beginning of the end...

Progressing Cat










Playing with colors over a neat little drawing of a cat.

A Big Bird


Oh man, look at this big bird I made! Check it out, flying over those trees and things. I know nothing about coloring, so if you want to give this a nice little color, be my super guest!

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man


This is my best guess as to what I look like.

Skellington's Day Up

Bad Mood


This is a charming little bit from the very short period in which I did autobios with myself as Skellington. I really like these two strange panels from a day where nothing could cheer me. Nothing, that is, until I drew this!

Angry Leonard


Is Leonard angry or is he just frustrated? Maybe he only wants the best for you. But you'll never know; you'll never listen to him, and we'll always have to wonder; is Leonard really angry?

Veneration of Whoredom

One thing I've really found strange lately is the way in which popular western culture treats promiscuity and the idea of many partners being a sign of societal success. The whore is good because she allows so many to achieve the self esteem and stats they desire. The whore is bad because she cheapens the effect. But why, why do we even need this standard of judgment? That magic point where you've fucked enough others with the most stoic of face; that moment where you can now love someone and not be ridiculed for it - what a strange idea. I don't know how to express this really, but I just can't wrap my head around how one's number of partners is their success, yet at the same time I hold myself to this standard and it haunts me.
Fuck this.
Fuck sex.
Fuck art.
Let's dance.

Strng Feelings


Yo mans, just did a bunch of uploads, so expect new sketches and things to actually be showing up again! Yesssss. More ghosthorse is on the way, but first here is a little story about that way people interact.

Ghost Horse Episode #3: "Ghost Horse in Love"


This is about Ghost Horse having a great time with his new girlfriend. And were do you go with a lady to enjoy yourself? Why, the craggy land of giant mushrooms, of course!

Ghost Horse Episode #1: "Oh Fuck!"

Click it to see it big!

Chief Man in Living Color!


Whoa! Look at that! This was colored by a computer! No fucking way! Well, fine then, be all high and mighty about it; but this is the first time I've ever done this.
Look at those crazy colors...oh, hahaha.

French Face

This is sort of an extrapolation of this French guy I knew in High School.

The Future of Transportation



Yo, check it! That dude is way totally riding that thing! And there are hella mushrooms n' shit!

Chief Man Says


I really have a thing for "indigenous arts" or however you wanna say it. Especially those of central America and the Pacific Northwest native cultures. There is only influence, though; I don't claim to be replicating the awesomeness. I drew this guy while working under the theme of "outlaws." Not really quite sure how it came out of my pen under those circumstances.

Not-so-Scary-Things


They can be pretty scary, amigos.

Fuck the Moon.


Spelling error alert! Yes, the moon is wonky; so fuck it.

Tot Nu: Vanavond


Something interesting I found in my previous Moleskine, drawn while flying from NDL to PDX I believe.
