Blorfing, a joyful past time

As you may have noticed, yes I did indeed miss this Monday's normally punctual update. I was unfortunately detained this weekend as I was savaged by bears and impregnated by a nun, then tied up in a covered wagon and forced to play Pictionary with a crew of merciless World War I army doctors until I was rescued by a giant jackalope that allowed me to ride him side-saddle off into the sunset and to the safety of my childhood bedroom. It all took a lot out of me, so please excuse the delay.

But anyway, here is a commission I did for Little Lantern Learning, an ESL learning center run by some very sweet and dedicated individuals.




I also have some good news for those of you who consider me to be a pretty good artist. I now have some reproductions for sale including the image featured today! YIPPERS! I will be working on getting a store set up soon, so I'll keep you posted. If you are antsy and dancey to see what I've got in stock then please email me and we can have a chit chat. Keep in mind I'm still in the process of reproducing my work so chances are if you like something I will have a repo of it in the near future if I don't already.

Also, things that excite me at the moment:

The new Muppet Movie soundtrack

The pile of seeds I just bought for my future garden

The New Paltz Phools Day Parade!!! A great excuse for any silly people of all ages to dress up and parade around on a day that isn't Halloween. So much fun!

And also Allison Braun of Goats n' Glory is pretty cool! She makes ugly animals cute and cute animals disgustingly adorable. Honestly, she needs to stop. I am running out of cutsie-vom, I think I blorfed it all!

Keep in touch my sweet little amigos!

Did you win at Pictionary? I feel like you would dominate some crotchety old WWI doctors!

Yes I did. But it was hard to draw with my hands bound in surgical gauze.
