Christmas Commission

Gouache and Mixed Media on Watercolor Paper

2015

A little holiday commission for my friend to her new girlfriend.  That’s the power of love y’all!  In case you can’t tell, that’s the View Askew-niverse’/Kevin Smith’s Buddy Christ (TM) and his cute new boyfriend, Elvis Presley.  Hey, I don’t make the requests, I just fulfill ‘em.  But I did have a giggle creating this gaudy and oh-so-subversive piece.  SO.  MUCH.  GLITTER.  Merry post-Christmas you guys! 

Witchsona

My witchsona Hammelin and her familiar Nostradamus.  She’s a storytime witch, on her way to read to sleepy children.  Head to toe, she’s wearing my favorite outfit, which (ha!) you can spot me in, any time between November and March.  Notice the mysteriously large volume of Mo Willems’ Pigeon stories.  A collected edition perhaps?  Or maybe she has the power to collect stories from the future?

I know this is atrociously late (more like witchsona month, amiright?), but this is probably my favorite cartoon I’ve ever drawn.  The initial drawing was finished within the week.  It’s the coloring I took forever on.

For those of you that don't know, Witchsona Week is an event on tumblr where artists are prompted to draw themselves as witches.  It's amazing.
