PMD Xmas Card Envelopes 2020: Plunger Pencil
This was the first envelope I drew this year, and it went to my parents. They are huge PMD fans, and have always been unwaveringly supportive of my pursuit of art and of me in general. I kind of think the pencil is an appropriate "gag" because my dad idolized Walt Disney in his
PMD Xmas Card Envelopes 2020: Plunger Narwhal Disguise
I find this one to be particularly hilarious, especially the concerned/quizzical look from the narwhal. This one went to my friend Hannah.
PMD Xmas Card Envelopes 2020: Plunger Microphone
This one went to my younger brother, James, and family. I haven't really thought about it in a long time, but plungers used to be a family point of humor growing up. I can remember being left home alone with him (when I was old enough and "responsible"...I'm 5 years older than him) and
Inktober 2020 PMD: Crawl
Inktober 2020 Day #31: Crawl. I wasn't really feeling this one. I struggled with the idea. I thought about a Sand Crawler from Star Wars first, but couldn't conjure a good image. I thought about a baby PMD crawling, but felt it was a little too obvious and it just didn't interest me. I
Inktober 2020 PMD: Ominous
Inktober 2020 Day #30: Ominous. I wasn't quite sure what direction I was going to go with this one, but settled on PMD looming over a banana. I tried out several different camera angles with some thumbnails, which I never do with my Inktober illustrations, but went with this one. It was missing something,
Inktober 2020 PMD: Shoes
Inktober 2020 Day #29: Shoes. I thought this one was going to be boring, but with the potential for some humor. It turns out, I really enjoyed this one, and I'm happy with the end result. This is a take on a 90s basketball sneaker ad featuring "Penny" Hardaway (remember him?). I thought of
Inktober 2020 PMD: Float
Inktober 2020 Day #28: Float. Okay, I had a LOT of fun with this one. For those that don't know, this is PMD as Sun Wukong, The Monkey King from Chinese mythology. He was essentially an ancient superhero, known to be mischievous. He had such powers as incredible strength and speed, magical fur that
Inktober 2020 PMD: Music
Inktober 2020 Day #27: Music. Okay, it's simple, but it's amusing, especially the sign with the notes on it. And the plunger trumpet. Or maybe I'm just sleep deprived and scatter-brained. I've never really been particularly musically inclined. I tried learning how to play the guitar at one point, but never had much time
Inktober 2020 PMD: Hide
Inktober Day #26: Hide. Also, current mood. I sat and stared off into space in my studio for a few hours yesterday, unable to get my Brain working. There has been a lot going on in "real life", tragedy, struggles, concerns, nostalgic day dreams, current state of the world...add to that having my Brain
Inktober 2020 PMD: Buddy
Inktober 2020 Day #25: Buddy. And yet another Calvin and Hobbes reference...with a subtle Star Wars reference to boot. I've always loved Watterson's image of Calvin and Hobbes crossing a stream on a log, not only because it's beautifully rendered, but also because it captures the essence of the characters. This is another personally
Inktober 2020 PMD: Dig
Inktober 2020 Day #24: Dig. Yes, it's now "Inkvember". Some "life" stuff got in the way and side tracked my Inktobering this year, so I'm a bit behind. I will finish all the prompts, if not this week, then next. It's going to be a toss up as to whether I pay homage to
Inktober 2020 PMD: Rip
Inktober 2020 Day #23: Rip. Verily, hath any living now or in time ancient ever witnessed a display of might so great as ripping a banana peel in twain whilst still attached to the banana flesh? Me thinketh not. This one was fun. Simple, and quick, but fun. Not much studio time today, probably
Please let me know what you think, it makes my brain happy.
