The Chad Frye - Illustration GuyIt’s okay if your barber wants to practice for a barbershop quartet, but maybe not while giving you a shave and a haircut. (I hear those cost two bits.)
Some jobs really have their bad days.
It’s been a few minutes since I last did a series of Monster Month posts here on the ol’ blog. Just been too busy with actual work the past couple of years to take the time to post a monster each day in October.
That being said, I didn’t want to let October 31st to go by without at least one monster post. And who better to depict than that granddaddy of all monsters, Frankenstein’s monster. (I’ve drawn him more than once in the past.)
So, here’s an ink and gouache sketch I did this week in my sketchbook. Don’t eat too much candy tonight.
I miss the days of passing time in airports being able to draw all the interesting faces I would see from around the world. One can only wonder what everyone is hiding from view today.
Thanks. Thanks a LOT Rona.

You know what today is, don’t you? That’s right, it’s everyone’s favorite quasi-holiday “Talk Like a Pirate Day!” Arrrr.
So, of course the ol’ blog must feature a pirate today. And a dog. A pirate dog. A pirate dog munching on a bone. A pirate dog munching on the forearm bone of a human. Gross.
It’s Labor Day here in the States, which is our fall holiday where normally folks celebrate with picnics, time spent together at parks, and maybe get together for a baseball game. Not sure how much of that is happening this year, but it’s nice to think about more carefree days of the past.
Anyone up for a little cake?
