Football Squid

The Undersea Squidball League is a vast conglomeration of sporting cephalopods. Nearly every sport known to man is represented in the League, and each species of squid tends toward a particular sport. The vampyroteuthis-like football squids are very good at swimming at high speed in tight spirals.\r\n\r\nMedia: Gouache on board\r\nPrints: Available on my website

His Majesty the Halfback

It's a little-known fact that His Majesty the Kingaroo was once a star halfback for the local team. His fancy footwork made him a fearful opponent. He could even dribble circles around those agile wallabies.\r\n\r\nI like kangaroos. I like soccer. It was inevitable.\r\n\r\nMedia: Gouache on paper\r\nPrints: Available on my website

Bugsy Hornbill

Bugsy Hornbill didn't just patronize the speakeasy, he owned it. He was the type of guy who always had a wink and a smile... *if* he was happy. And if Bugsy wadn't happy, ain't no one was happy.\r\n\r\nThe reason that art of this genre this doesn't get into hoity-toity galleries is that it'd need some esoteric meaning - like "it represents man's encroachment upon nature and the ensuing distress of the African Ground Hornbill." But really, I just wanted to draw a hornbill in a hat.\r\n\r\nMedia: Pastel on paper

Mauveater

The Mauveater is worried that someone will see him eyeing the dandelion. He's only supposed to eat ants... but he can't stand the little buggers. They wriggle on the way down.\r\n\r\nMedia: Mixed (gouache, colored pencil, ink) on Claybord

Redmadillo

The Redmadillo wants his mommy.\r\n\r\nMedia: Mixed (gouache, colored pencil, ink) on Claybord

Bluevark

The bluevark sat patiently, waiting for someone to give him a hug. He needed one desperately. He just lost his job and his girlfriend left him. Aardvarks don't usually go to therapy, so he thought he'd sit by the pretty flower until someone noticed how blue he was.\r\n\r\nMedia: Mixed (gouache, colored pencil, ink) on Claybord

CrashOctopus

The CrashOctopus doesn't like his job, but the pay's decent and the benefits are superb. Sure, he gets tossed around the seafloor all day long by cephalopod engineers trying to design a safer ocean transport, but they always pay any resulting hospital bills and give him disability pay. Besides, he doesn't have anything better to do except chase sharks, and if he's going to lose limbs anyway, he'd prefer the method that doesn't involve sharp, pointy teeth.\r\n\r\nMedia: Gouache on paper

Annoyed

The dragon is Annoyed. At what, I'm not sure.\r\n\r\nMedia: Crayon and ink on board.

Frog in a Fez

This was my first experiment on Yupo, a drawing surface made of plastic. It doesn't absorb anything, which makes layering tricky. Also, it doesn't handle eraser well. At all. In case you were wondering.

Kingaroo

The Kingaroo was a good potentate. He was remembered throughout the ages as the wisest and noblest of rulers, all tendencies towards narcolepsy notwithstanding.
