Prince would never be king....

Prince died today.  It feels like he was too young.  Barring foul play or something lame like suicide - it's kind of tragic to lose someone with this kind of musical talent especially so close to David Bowie's passing.

Of course I wasn't really a big fan of either guy - but still....they had a lot more to possibly give to the musical world.

Dr Strange

This movie is coming out soon - and, for some reason, nobody is doing a Doctor Strange....love drawing.  I didn't either!

But I want to - in the meantime, I decided to draw the character to get a feel for him first - and here's the line art for that.

I remember reading some Doctor Strange comics when I was younger - but I couldn't tell you anything about them.  I remember thinking he had a cooler costume than most....but nothing comes to mind when I think about the story.

Another day, another dalek

There was a time I was totally into Charlie Brown and the whole Peanuts gang.  I loved the drawings, the comic strip and the cartoon...I couldn't get enough of any of it.  And then I just kind of got tired of the same jokes and the same story lines and I don't know if it was the overall saturation of the brand into everything, but I just wasn't a big fan anymore.

Seeing that the movie was coming out reinvigorated the fan in me.  I was suspicious that they were doing a movie in CG, but the characters translated over quite well.

So recently having Charlie Brown on the brain (figuratively), I seem to be drawing a lot of mashups with them.  My favorite is still Charlie Brown as Pinhead, because his bald head lends itself to it.  But I've recently found a series of drawings that I want to do - and this is the first bit....a hint of what's to come:

I've just laid in the colors, so there are no textures or shading...but I like where it's headed...!

Happy Pantry: Apple Fools!

No fool worse than an apple fool...

Hey - you got a worm in your apple....April fool's!  But seriously, it's half a worm.  Which is worse.

April fools...?

it's not frosting, but it sure is fragrant!  But don't take my word for it, take a bite!
