I did this at work a while ago.

You’ll have to wait your turn, Mr. Livingstone.
This bathroom is occupied.

… because this guy totally wants their number.

Man, that Teddy Roosevelt sure can’t take a joke.
Nope, not at all…

I like Twitter. I know some people don’t, but I’m not friends with those people.
Here are a couple drawings that I’ve posted to my Twitter account this past week. They accompanied by really verbose* commentary… You know, really deep, profound stuff that you probably won’t get until you’re laying in bed at night.
I also post knock knock jokes because that’s just classy.

I was digging around on the hard drive and came across a few sketches that I did a while back. I think there are more… somewhere…

Hey kiddo.

It’s Christmas time again. I know you asked for some pretty swell things, but your mom and I have been talking, and, well, I don’t know how to sugar coat this… we’re not getting any of them for you. You weren’t bad or anything… there have just been some pretty great things on TV lately. We’re human. We like good TV. Now, dry those eyes and find the inner strength to persevere. Feels good, huh? Wait a second… that’s like a life lesson, isn’t it? Wow. I guess we did get you something after all.
You’re welcome, bucky.
Have you seen the remote?

“What an amazing pink Christmas tree!” you’re probably saying to yourself, “Look at how bright it is! Only a very strong and brave person could handle such a powerful tree. It’s like having the sun in your living room! And decorating it in lights and glass bulbs! I tremble at the thought of such a person! Who could this person be?!”

It would be me… sure, my family helped some, you know, setting it up, decorating it. The safe stuff. Me? I grabbed danger by the throat and put it in a choke hold: I plugged the tree in.

Sorry ladies, I’m taken.

This is me. I have a beard. I have a crazed stared. I probably live next door to you.

86-year-old World War II veteran Joseph Robertson fought at the Battle of the Bulge. Over 60 years later, he still cant forget one soldier he killed there.

The other day, my son was playing with a potato. I asked him about it and he called it “Putt-Putt”. After he went to bed, I took a picture of it.

Less than a week to go! Here is number three.
Are you scared yet?

We’re inching closer and closer to that particularly spooky day that we all know and love, so, in anticipation, here is the second Halloween inspired illustration in the scare induced series.

There will be more coming in the days leading up to the 31st, so be sure to check back to get your ghoul on.

Halloween is right around the corner and I can hardly contain myself! To say that I am excited would be an understatement, so don’t feel bad. You probably just didn’t know. In preparation for the 31st, I am unveiling a series of ghoulish inspired illustrations. So, swing back by in the upcoming days and prepare yourself you be scared stupid! Or at least just slightly amused.

It’s a bear! And a fish! On a log! Just like in nature!
Real life drama at its finest.

Look at that wild life! It’s so real. Just like in nature… and on the gum packaging.

Hey may have been America’s first treasurer and his portrair may be plastered on the ten dollar bill, but he put his fancy pantaloons on one leg at a time just like the rest of us… and he wasn’t bullet proof. Too soon?

Fact: I love early American history and one of my favorite eras in the Jackson Administration. Hee-larious! This is a drawing of Jackson’s first vice president, John C. Calhoun from South Carolina.

For a Socialist, this must be embarrassing.

A quick sketch from today.

Yes, I did more drawings of goldfish! I’ll admit it and I am unashamed to say that I really like drawing them. They are a blast to draw… especially when you bulge out their eyes and make them look lonely and sad with a healthy dose of food allergies.

This is a quick drawing that I did recently. And here is the quick sketch that I did before the quick drawing…

Your guess as to what this is is as good as mine.
It kinda reminds me of Michael Slack’s work… just not as awesome.

So I started playing the ukulele a couple months back (”playing” in the most generous use of the word) and the tiny instrument has since formed a special place in my heart. Lately I’ve noticed that they have been appearing all around me: on the little scraps of paper that I keep beside my desk to doodle on, in my sketchbooks, and sometimes, in my illustrations of hat lovin’ flamingos.
