drawing #26: discuss amongst yrselves.
WHEN: Drawn at work while helping Ben draw a mummy wrapped with toliet paper. Colored while watching old episodes of ER with my wife.
WHAT IT MEANS: This whole "talking with birds" thing has been a reoccurring motif this week, and I have no idea where it came from. The birds have been singing earlier and earlier in my neighborhood, sometimes sounding like entire flocks or choruses - they're getting up with the sun, at least - but it's not like I've been harboring any particular love (or animosity) towards them. Maybe it means I'm trying to explain the inexplicable - to talk to people who I share no language with.
Hmm.

drawing #23: color! okay!
WHEN: Yesterday and this morning. I was looking at some fine posts by Hiel, a fellow Blogger, and he got me stoked to try some color - though I fear his style is better than mine. I also mussed around with some text in Photoshop. All in all, a mixed bag.
WHAT IT MEANS: I ain't sleeping much. I feel like everything should be okay, and, objectively speaking, things are awesome. That, however, doesn't stop me from waking up in the middle of the night. In fact, here is a song I made about that very fact:

drawing #22: just think about it.
WHEN: Helping kids use RPG Maker, a program that makes customized Zelda-style roleplaying video games - a program which has become the new hotness at work. I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with the drawing.
WHAT IT MEANS: I was looking through Flickr groups of cartoons and characters yesterday (I especially like this one and this one) and got inspired. Now, apparently, I have monsters on the brain. And I'm amazed at the amount of talent that's just floating around in the internet.

drawing #19: speaking of the moon speaking of death.
WHEN: Right after work, waiting about for dinner and drinking a beer.
WHAT IT MEANS: Today was an amazing day - I got to work with a new kid who is adorably excited about everything AND who I got to practice my Spanish with, which was fun and magic like monsters and moonbeams. However, I may have to saw off my own thumb, which I injured while skating with another group of kids who came in today, thus reminding me of my own mortality and the creeping onset of death.
That, or I just like drawing skulls when I run out of things to draw. That's what punk rock will do to you.
