Harpies with Sharpies (and a little clown)
Heeeyyy...
Slacking on the comics, which seems to be the norm of late...just have not felt all that funny. I do, however, have a brand new illustration- "Harpies with Sharpies", and a cute little clown ACEO original as well!
"Harpies with Sharpies": I like to rhyme things, it brings me endless amusement. It is amazing to me that something as simple as two words could produce enough inspiration for me to create a whole picture, with colors and everything! :0 I like that I got to draw something mythical and something modern in one rhyme. I like that I got to draw some boobs. I like that no Sharpies were injured in the making of this illustration. I like that other than for visual reference, I did not actually USE a single Sharpie to draw this. Geeze, the dork is strong with me today.
These lovely feathered ladies are an original pen and ink (Prismacolor and sakura) illustration, 8.5" x 11", on bristol; signed and stuff. Currently up for auction on eBay at the link below the picture:
Annnnd, I have a clown ACEO up for auction as well..."Clown #1"- auction is at the link:
Probably keeping this one for my personal collection if it does not go at auction this round. Fair warning.
Now...I'm going to go brainstorm some comics that may or may not be good enough to make it past chicken scratches in my sketch book...
xo!

Don't forget that I have a website with a shoppppp!!!

Yelling in the Woods- an art post
Ahoy hoy...hoy hoy hoy...
HOY!
Anyway...This is an art post. If you were looking for comics, you have to wait until Thursday. Or go browse all the old (and still hilarious) comics on the blog. February's large cartoon painting is a remake of a tiny illustration I made a few years ago- "Yelling in the Woods". I loved the title so I am keeping it the same for this piece.
Two lowbrow bunnies, yelling in a candy-colored forest. Yes, I have heard the shrieks of a rabbit before. I have a cat. No, they are not cute or adorable noises. They are horrifying and not at all something candy-colored forests should have happening in them. But just pretend like this is a make believe cartoon land (because it is) and imagine that these particular bunnies are making the kind of cute yelling noises that we all wish they would.
So, here is a picture of "Yelling in the Woods", and below that is the link to the eBay auction :) Should the auction end with nary a bid (as they often tend to do), I will be housing this piece in my etsy shop ;)

Okay. That's enough art stuff for one day. I will be back later in the week with a new comic. Thank you for looking. Seriously. If you are looking, you are awesome. If you want to TELL me you are looking, you are EVEN more awesome. Seriously. It's not like I know if you are or not. Unless you tell me. xo! Em

Water Wings- an Art post
Art time, y'allssss!!
So, I know that the focus of this blog is my comic strip, but the comic strip does not actually bring in any income (that's right, ZERO income, I simply do it for the love of making fun of things). Therefore, I am being forced by my boss-lady (her name is the same as mine!) to post a write up about each new piece of art that I create. So, here is 2015's very first dorkling/zombietoes original creation- "Water Wings"!
Click here to see the auction/read the blurb/view more pics/make a bid(?)
"Water Wings" is a strange piece, if only that it took me ten seconds to come up with the concept, and four months to turn it into a painting. The most hilarious part of this whole process (to me, anyway) is that this painting looks 100% NOTHING like the idea that it originated from. There were moments where all I wanted was to paint over it and start it all over...but I'd get halfway through whitewashing the shit, and then start a whole new layer...before the last one was even fully covered. Each layer was nowhere near what I wanted, so I kind of gave up on creating the original concept art on this canvas, and just let this painting happen. It's hard being such a control freak half the time, and a flighty artist the other half. It's constant self compromise. This explains my moody nature, to a point, but I digress... I am confident that someday I will create the piece that this one was meant to be. That day, however, is not today, so I hope you enjoy this bizarrely cute pirate ship bird instead :)
And just so you know, I've already ordered ACEO prints of this piece to be listed on eBay and my fancy schmancy website shop ;) Larger prints and posters will also be available shortly.
(And also just so you know, sharing links is just as awesome and helpful as making an art purchase. Plus, it's free to do, makes me smile, and I will count that as your good deed for any day you feel like good-deeding some dork such as myself.)
Don't forget to come back on Thursday for a new comic!! :D
