The Singing Cowboy

Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboy singers.

 

Always best if those notes are in tune.

 

This was a traditionally inked sketch in my sketchbook that was then taken into Photoshop to be colored. The hardest part was writing the song that he’s singing.

Smile & Wave

How’s everyone’s spring going? Everyone vaccinated and breathing some fresh air? Everyone free of ticks? And how about that tax day moving to May? Let’s all wave goodbye to what would have been tax day today!

 

This is what happens when you try to set up a secret nature camera in the woods.

Pencil Pusher

Every now and then, it’s good to get out the ol’ sketchbook and just see what might flow forth from one’s hand.

 

Always feels like there’s a million faces just waiting to fall out of my pencil.

Easter Bunny

Well, ol’ Bugs Bunny isn’t exactly the Easter Bunny, but he’ll do for today.

 

He is just a poor boy, though his story’s seldom told…

Covid Cats

Sheesh. Mice will do ANYTHING to try to keep the cats from attacking them. Don’t believe a thing this mouse says.

 

The cats stay away when the mice have Covid. (Doesn’t quite rhyme, but it’s true.)

 

 

Gangsta Kitty

Even a tough ol’ godfather can have a softer side in the presence of a cute kitty.

 

The kitten made an offer of cuteness he can’t refuse.

 

Speaking of godfathers, today just so happens to be the 49th anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather. Despite being a tremendous influence in how organized crime is portrayed in the movies, it needed more kitty.

Mama Bear

Don’t EVER mess with a mama bear protecting her cub. Unless she is just a cartoon drawing like this one. Tease her all you want.

 

Drool included as a bonus.

 

Ink in a sketchbook, colored in Photoshop. No real drool was harmed in the creation of this image.

Tourists

It’s always fun to travel and see new places. It’s just not always nice to appear to be obviously unfamiliar with that new place, especially when the locals look — hungry.

 

The locals are restless.
