Look out Henry Cavill!

As kids, my brother and I had some pretty rad superhero jammies. We would wear them everywhere, the store, ball games, church(ok, not church) but we loved them and would act like the characters we were dressed as.
When I wore my Superman jammies I would lie on my stomach across things like chairs and ottmons and pretend to fly. My favorite was going to the playground and using the swings.
I wish I had some of those old photos of my siblings and I to post but they're all at my mom's house. But for now here's something that shows that anyone can fly, they just have to be creative.

Puh-tero-dak-tyle!

I thoroughly enjoy pterodactyls, they are the birds of dinosaurs. And I like birds...and dinosaurs.

Hedge hog

I said it before and I'll say it again...I like a good pun. Of course, I'm not sure if this is so much a pun as it is just being super literal...ahh, who knows. But, I just think this is a funny idea. A hog hanging out in someones backyard in a hedge...just waiting.

Drawing with kids

This past Saturday, members of the AAU children's book club volunteered at the SF public library and spent the afternoon drawing with children. We had a decent turnout and had a great time talking to the kids while they were drawing. Each of them made a great little booklet to take home with them filled with their own work.

You can see some photos of the event at: www.aauchildrensbook.blospot.com

While the kids were drawing I made a little story of my own, "Bobby goes to Mars". The narrative is pretty bad and the drawing aren't much to look at but it was a quickie so cut me some slack.

Star Trek big-head guys

I've been watching the old '60's episodes of Star Trek and they are F-U-N. Shatner is insane and the sets are cheesy and have crazy techno-color lighting. These alien guys are actually from the unaired pilot episode and I thought they would be fun to draw. The make up effects for these aliens were great, throbbing veins on their watermelon sized domes and foreheads you could land a helicopter on. Good work 1960's.

Galapagos or bust

Turtles are awesome and I would like to swim with, ride or just be in the general vicinity of them. Someday I'll accomplish this goal, whether I have to move to Hawaii or the Galapagos Islands or just break into an aquarium and hop in the tank. This is the gauntlet I've laid down for myself.

Cool treat for a cool dude

Quick sketch tonight of the coolest guy in the north having himself a frosty treat.
