Shrub Monkeys #33

Sketches



*sigh* I need to be more like superman...
ANYHOO, these are just some character doodles. I may do something with this. Provided no one's already got something exactly like it. Boy do I feel stressed out these days... :P

Cartoonify thyself!

This week's topic at Artjumble was to draw yerself in the style of your favourite cartoon show. For the life of me, I CANNOT pick a favourite, I haven't had a "favourite" since I was 12 and Sailor Moon first hit the screens. There's lots of stuff I liiike, but it was so hard to choose that I just went with the smart-arse approach: Yeaaaaah Clutch Cargo!Then I felt like being nicer to myself and so drew a Ruby Gloom esque picture. It's a really cute show and my lil' sis absolutely adores it! ... man, with all the photos, drawings and comics of myself I keep posting , you all must think I'm the world's most narcissistic person...

H.E.S blog!

For those who don't know yet, my little sister has started her own blog! Check it out at duckwithumbrella.blogspot.com for the kinds of cute drawings and strange political (at least I think it's political...) cutout humour that only an 11 year old brain can cook up!

Shrub Monkeys #32, Medieval Misgivings...

**Click title link to view larger strip at girlamatic.com**
A bunch of friends (of mine and my boyfriend Gerry) came down from Ottawa a few weekends ago and all of us went to Medieval Times in Toronto. It was aweome! Highly recommended if there's one in your area. We got so into it that we'd be standing and screaming for blood during the sword fights, we didn't say anything foul, but I think we were freaking out the family in front of us. Whoops!
You can tell my great love for backgrounds in this particular comic. BAH! I want to do serious comics some day soon, so I know I have to get better, but at this point in time I find no pleasure in drawing backgrounds. I want to put as few lines down as possible to get the joke across and that's it!

Shrub Monkeys 31 and a hot potato!

Hoooo man, I've been living and breathing work for the past week and a half. Thank goodness for weekends, I felt a brain crash coming on. Now for some random sillies... smile folks! It's the weekend fer gosh sake! (I really need to start studying colour theory... I need more hours in the day! )

Again, seeing as blogger never opens my Shrub Monkeys the proper size, click the title link, it'll re-direct you to girlamatic.com where I post these.
