Hunt and Peck

Idea cooked up with Rilla (and probably already done somewhere). And yes, birds do have special software that allows them to capitalise the ‘I’ without using the shift key – otherwise it would be even harder on them.

Include Detailed Stage Directions

This one is a comic-form staging of a post from the website Write Badly Well called “Include Detailed Stage Directions“. It’s nice sometimes to have a script already in existence so one can focus on one’s shitty drawings.

The Laundry Rack

A quick one based on a quick poem based on a glimpse of the laundry rack out of the corner of my eye. Yes, I am aware that the drawing of the laundry rack, and particularly its legs, is kind of horrible. Screw it.

He Tolerated The Harm

The text of this story comes straight from abdurrahmanorg.wordpress.com, a website which promotes and discusses Islam. The text was such a show-stopper I had to make something.

A Softer Person

The text from this one comes verbatim from Chad’s remembering of a woman talking at a recent mindfulness workshop – it was too beautiful not to make into something, and so here it is. The words are the stars, I just draw them.

( untitled drawing )

Here’s a relative random drawing I found myself wanting to do the other day and so I just went ahead and did it, flying in the face of convention. I suspect it’s a deep, nay, profound commentary on how we construct our reality and are, in turn, constructed.

Revolting Restaurant

Hilarious little dialogue about the confusion between the words “revolting” and “revolving”. For they are only one letter different, after all! Fiddling with some new speech balloons too, for what it’s worth.

You Were A Mistake

The old classic of taking some kind of statement literally and then drawing the result, resulting in, well, comedy gold. Comedy. Gold. Say it with me.

Leaf Playing Hopscotch

Another one of those “observations from nature”. In this case, I saw a leaf trying to play hopscotch. What a plucky little leaf it was, as deserving of becoming digitally immortal as anything ever was.

You Can’t Go Home Again

I saw a half-eaten apple sitting at the foot of a tree in the local park and it made me think of how fruit falls off the tree it’s born on, and how the fruit might feel about these drastic separations from mom.
