Female Harry Potter

Oh, you know, just day dreaming.

Word Vomit

Don't you just sometimes vomit words out and wish you could pick them up and stuff them back in your mouth?

Cats Everywhere!

cats-everywhere

Hello. This is "Cats Everywhere." I am tired. BLARGH.

So, I'm kind of delirious at the moment. Long day coming in early to work, then it's sort of crunch-time on this presentation I'm working on, staying late, then going to the first day of my rewrite class. I feel like everyone there resents my being born in the 80's. Not individually of course -- everyone was nice -- but man, the room vibe wants me to dust some of this hopeful gleam off of my eyes, I think. Nonetheless, great class! Just a combination of everything in this day. ANYHOO--

Daily drawing! Weird angular cats I was doodling in class and tried to recreate here. I don't usually sign my name but I feel like it added to the whole style. Teehee. Facetious signatures.

Oh my God I need to sleep now. Happy Rosh Hashana.

Also the blue thing is a cactus.

Monster Hospital Scans

monsterhospital-headaches
More Monster Hospital scans! Low quality, but there's still a hint at what's to come.

Screen Fairy

Just a little reminder to myself that I should, by no means, start working again. I work at a computer all day, and when I get into a zone, it's hard to stop. Hallucinating usually helps, though.

Octopi in the sky

octopiinthesky
Drawing a day, whoo! Didn't have time to think or do a Grown Ups Club or anything today. In fact, just BARELY remembered that I was going to do this whole drawing a day thing in time. Phew, wouldn't want to start over again. Anyways, I was Googling images of Octopi the other day (yep, no back story) and I noticed a certain type of octopus that looked like a helicopter. So, not wanting to put new thought into anything today, here's a sky octopus. Also, partially inspired to do something of the like because I started work with a literary agent this week who represents a lot of the Dahl properties. Staring at a picture of James and the Giant Peach all day can really put you in a bright mood!

Fridge

grownupsclub-fridge
Ugh, not too happy with this one, but hey, drawing a day, right? Was cleaning the other day and decided that, before unloading all the lovely groceries I had just spent the last of my money on, I should clean the fridge. I guess it's not often that I have that thought, because this is what happened. Also, I kind of imagined the fridge monster as being The Nightmare from Little Nemo (Adventures in Slumberland) but that was just plain too hard to draw. So is the side of a fridge, for some reason. I guess it doesn't come up much.

Ugh, so tired.

Flea Problem

grownupsclub-fleas
So this is why daily uploads didn't really start yesterday. Ugh. After getting these miserable little bites all over my ankles and legs, I've finally had to admit that we have a flea problem. The evil kitty probably left them. Spent two days cleaning and still getting bites, and today we're doing the bombs. The worst part is, fleas love me. I get bit more than anyone else in the house, no matter who I'm living with. It all started when Delilah first got fleas in my Goleta place... since then, no matter how much I clean, how much I treat, how much I do anything, or even if they disappear for years at a time, it seems they are always doomed to pop up at some point in my life, and I have these terrible flashbacks. UGH UGH UGH.

Screw the common cold, we need a better cure for these guys.

Jogging

grownupsclub-jogging
Jogging may start "tomorrow," but daily uploads start today!

KittenSupreme

Supreme-Kitten-Digital
A chassis for @ASupremeDalek's kitten. Maybe I should've titled it ASupremeKitten... KittenSupreme sounds a little like a McDonald's special.

Also! I think I'll start my drawing-a-day goal soon, either today or tomorrow. If I write it here, maybe it will actually happen.

Doctor Who Cats 11 and 5!



Aaaaand done! Finished digitizing all the Doctor Who cats, though very loosely. As I mentioned, I totally don't have the patience for coloring. Or... doing things nicely. But on the plus side, I can just stick with my "sketchbook style" and act like it's all an active choice.

Above, Matt Smith's cat! Below, Peter Davison's!

Why do cats and Doctor Who dominate my life? Are they the only two things my brain cares about? Not that I'm complaining. I mean, with cats and Doctor Who, my soul is pretty full.

...I need a dog.

Fall Line-Up




In the first seventeen minutes of "Unforgettable." UGH.

Doctor Who Cat - 10th Doctor

Doctor Who Cat - 4th Doctor

So, this is happening. Sloppy coloring, but hey, I don't have an attention span. Also, BBC America's been replaying David Tennant's doctor all day. I thought I was over the mourning period, but after re-watching Planet of the Ood, I'm not so sure.

Doctor Who Cats - Sneak Peak

All right, after those Star Wars cats, what could be better? Doctor Who Cats. Of COURSE. I did a set of four -- 4th, 5th, 10th, and 11th Doctors. Here's a sneak peak at Cat-Doctor #5 (Peter Davison's Doctor). Just a gross scan, it looks better in real life with the watercolors, but I'll clean up all of them and do digital versions to put up soon!

Star Wars Cats



So I made this as a gift Matt's Star Wars themed birthday party. Brittany spied my Star Wars cats doodles previously and thought he might like them. Watch out though. Star Wars Cats compliments have gone to my head and have now opened a Pandora's box... I've been drawing Doctor Who cats all day. I'll scan 'em when the paint dries.
