"T" Animal

Click for bigger picture

Another piece from my preschool days.
There's kid logic for you. Put four legs, a tail and a head on something and you have an animal.
I wonder if this was based on something I saw on Sesame Street?

Cabaret Birds (early 80s)

Detail from a picture I drew after seeing the movie Cabaret. I was thirteen.
I still like that movie, especially how it juxtaposes onstage silliness with real life horrors.

Bird Comics (circa 1984)

Click image for a bigger one.

I drew these when I was fifteen. Watercolor pencils, I believe.
The faded letters in the lower left corner say "Punk Parrot."
He had a safety pin in his beak and an electric banjo.

Roach Motel


Overtime city.
Toastmaster meeting for lunch.
Time to break out older work so the blog doesn't go stale.
This tribute to 1950s signage is part of an insect-themed chess set. It's the castle (get it? get it?) I created it in Second Life* a few years ago.
A picture of the entire set can be seen here.
I also made the (mostly hidden) gazebo, plus some of the plants in the background. I made the shrubs free to copy. Now they're all over the place.

*I'm Olympia Rebus in that world.
