you know it cant be easy being the eskimo kid that's the butt of all the practical jokes, especially if the gang is about to go whaling...

illustration friday - quiet

This weeks theme is QUIET, or as these illos suggest - a distinct lack thereof. With simian siblings Dancin' Travis and Lil' Trevor Jnr on the bongos pounding out them big percussive beats you'll be getting none, and perhaps yelling for some.

the wind beneath my wings...

For the last few weeks i've just been drawing birds... lots and lots of birds. There has been a purpose in the feathering of my nest, namely an upcoming exhibition at Christmas-time. Along the way i've found that my birds clearly do not come from the my planet, but some parallel universe where they are the dominant species, with therapists, interfereing mothers in law, orthodontic appointments and obsessive compulsive disorders, like the woodpecker above.
I have also found that they are often overweight and fall into mindless stupors when confronted with oversized fruit... see below.

and sometimes they even find another similarly odd shaped misfit of a bird to fall in love with..
