Tofurkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! To celebrate, here is a picture of a turkey chasing some tiny pilgrims:



I suppose it could also be a giant turkey chasing some regular-sized pilgrims, but "Tiny Pilgrims" is funnier to say.

Enter the Hippodome!

As you may know, I always try to keep up on the latest news about crocodiles fighting other animals (see, e.g. here and here), so this news story about a crocodile trying to climb over the backs of a herd of hippos was of particular interest to me, and inspired me to do a quick sketch. (SPOILER: It doesn't end well for the crocodile).



Anyway, I have been pretty busy lately, but I have a few more drawings I will hopefully have the chance to post soon.

Giraffe? Giraffe!

Thanks to the magic of Photoshop, I was able to put the giraffe from a few Illustration Fridays ago in a more climate appropriate background.

IF: Blur

Quick digital sketch based on an old idea I had for a painting, this is entitled:

"Stupid cardinal won't sit still while I paint it (number 48 in a series)"

Ironically, this is one of the few pictures I've done digitally where I haven't used a blur filter.
