Mother Hubbard with a twist

Old Mother Hubbard

Went to her cupboard

To get her poor dog a bone.

But when she got there,

the cupboard was bare.

So she hopped on her Harley

…and went and got some!

 

Happy Mother’s Day!!!

Hitched

Fiddle-de-dee, Fiddle-de-dee,
The Fly has married the Bumble Bee,
Says the fly, says he,
“Will you marry me?
And live with me, sweet Bumble Bee?”
Fiddle-de-dee, Fiddle-de-dee,
Oh, I love you, and you love me!

Away they go

My postcards arrived. I’m very pleased with the job GotPrint did on them.

While waiting… I’ve been updating my mailing list, so… batta boom, batta bing…. they are out the door and headed to their prospective clients.

As always, they were mailed with the usual good luck mojo send off dance at the post office and a fond farewell to these postcards….. wadda ya mean …”it’s not usual?” ;)

Anyway, goodbye postcards. I’ll keep my fingers and toes crossed… and that’s one to check off the list of goals!

 

Cheerio!

Setting Goals

It stands to reason that if you are taking care of a sick kid….eventually you’re going to get it too! So I’m taking it kind of slow today. I’ve been doing some sketches and thinking about goals.  Soon summer will be here and the kid will take up a lot of time… so here’s a list I’ve been thinking about for May.

1. Still looking for an agent. I would love to work as a team with some one out there.  I know you’re out there I just haven’t met you yet.  :)

2. Send that dummy book out. You know where you’d like send it, so what’s holding you back?  Kicks self in the butt! ;)

3.Those promotional postcards should arrive this week… get them back out ASAP!

4. Keep up those daily sketches…. work it!

What are your goals? Do you set a date or are they open ended?

Jump

Playing Royal Leap Frog was always a little traumatic for the other players.  Artemis Amphibia, an avid Mel Brooks fan, simply shrugged and said…

“It’s good to be the King!”

Puzzled

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 ”And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow,
stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so?
It came without ribbons. It came without tags.
It came without packages,boxes or bags.

 

 

 And he puzzled and puzzled ’till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before.
What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store?

 

 

 What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?”

 

The idea here was to take a master, like the animators that drew the Grinch and make him look dimensional, and textured. I really liked Jim Carey’s version of the Grinch but the old hand drawn version will always be my favorite.
