Ok, so your first though was probably, “wow, Bryan’s getting lazy.” And my only response is, “what do you mean getting?”

But seriously, what you see above is the very rough concept sketch of dern’s and my first submission in the woot.com t-shirt derby. Subject: Flight. If you have a woot account feel free to head on over and give us some voting love (if you like it, of course). Otherwise, just head on over to woot to check out the final illustration.

If you have a dog and a cat I have a feeling you have dealt with this yourself. Haven’t you? Coraline has taken to perching herself on the furniture and taking swipes at Frances.

Poor cat doesn’t even realize Frances is just biding her time.

I little step back into the I-don’t-know-where-this-came-from today. But it’s cute, so I’ll post it.

We are all a little sick (no pun intended) of hearing about Swine Flu here at work. Really, I already wash my hands and don’t agree with the over-use of antibacterials but I digress. This morning my coworker Paul and I tag-teamed and replaced the pig mascot (no, really) with a baked ham and dearly departed. FYI – I’m not the cook but I’m sure you figured that out.

I can only hope the hype goes the same way.

Some days it is fun just to put my pen to the paper, without a prior pencil sketch, and see what happens. Today this is what happens. I’m calling it a yeti but, y’know, whatever you see there is fine, too. Just in cast yetis aren’t your thing.

If you are into the abominable-ness you must check out The Abomminable Charles Christopher. You’re welcome.

So, The Wife and I were at a brunch on Sunday and we all started talking about dogs and rescues. Bassets and boxers. When the other couple pulls up a boxer at the humane society that was past over by a boxer rescue because he was too ugly. I mean, he is pretty ugly but it is a cute ugly. I can’t do another dog right now so I’m out but if you know anyone looking lets get this cutey adopted.

So on that note I introduce you to SCOOP. Share this puppy (pun not intended but kept anyway) any which way you can.

Today’s post is more for those of you on the RSS feed. Those of you visiting the site already see the above drawing (though smaller) along with the rest of the changes I’ve started working into the site.

More are coming when I get to it. Including, maybe, selling some art. That is a pretty big line for me to cross.
