Comparisons Are Annoying, Please Stop Making Them.
Dear anyone willing to listen,
It isn’t particularly flattering when someone comes up to you (either in person or online) and insists that your art looks a lot like/identical to an already established artist. It’s a slap in the face that demeans years and years (often a lifetime) of hard work and studying art and style and finding your visual voice as an artist. It’s...

Awesome offical 'Adventure Time' artwork! →
Hey folks!
This guy’s flickr is filled to the brim with official ‘Adventure Time’ artwork, including backgrounds and character art, all at pretty high resolutions. You should check them out, study them closely, and have fun blinding yourself with the excellently bright colors. There are more things on his flickr, but this is the thing that stands out to me so I’m...

downandoutjeff asked: I'm thinking I wish i could do that retro style drawing that you do so well (seriously, other than 'Cartoon Cool' by Christopher Hart, are there any tutorials you could recommend?).
I'm also thinking that I listen to way too much They Might Be Giants, but that's neither here nor there.

Peach and Zelda Catch Up by College Humor
I always had a nagging suspicion.
This is another one of those rare instances where I see something so interesting or entertaining or funny that I must reblog it (since my tumblr is usually just my own stuff). I laughed REALLY hard when I first saw this. So funny.
200 Followers!!!
Wowza! In my short amount of time here on Tumblr, I’ve already gathered 200 followers! That is so awesome, and I definitely have to do something as a thank you. Look forward to that.
Thanks for being so awesome, guys and gals! Your support makes my job even better than it already is.

pymparticles asked: Did you always draw in the style that you do now or is did it develop over time?
oceanmaster asked: TMI questions are tough! Um, uh— Are you pink because you're slightly fruity, or because it's just a dang great color? (boys can like pink!)
TMI Tuesday PART TWO OHMYGOD!!!!
Hey folks!
Uh oh, TMI Tuesday is sort of kind of almost over! You should totally ask me a question before the chance to do it (on a Tuesday) fades away until next week. What a tragedy that would be, right?!

TMI Tuesday
So it’s TMI Tuesday. I guess that means you have to ask me a bunch of CRAZEH questioms. (Spelled with an “m” for extra oomph.)
Fire away.
About the shapes provided...
Just wanted to let you guys and gals know that I have not forgotten about the shape challenge. I was provided with a decent amount of shapes and I have a handful left. I have just been busy with other things so I haven’t gotten to them yet, but I will. Oh, I will…*rubs hands together in an evil genius sort of way*
