I’ve been working on a couple of commercial endeavors off and on between posts, commissions, troublemaking and belly-button picking, and while my projects are in no way complete I decided to unveil one of them anyway, since I’ve been getting a lot of inquiries about my artwork. That project is Whimsytoons.com.

Whimsytoons is what H.E. and I came up with after half an hour of vicious name-calling. “You, looney toon!” “You, caricatoon!” “You, fancytoon!” “You, portraitoon!” I tried explaining to him that I just wanted something a little whimsical in my life, and we simultaneously cried out, “Whimsytoons!” It was quite a row, and I don’t think H.E. and I have recovered from it yet.

Truly, it’s all Broch’s fault. After seeing that sexy topsy turvy cartoon version of me, he was the first to ask me if I’d make a cartoon version of him, too, that homebreaker. If it hadn’t been for him, I wouldn’t be sneaking off and making furtive strokes in the monitor-lit darkness with my Wacom tablet. I wouldn’t be taking naughty fauxtos with my Cantoff PS6 digital crapera. By now, you all know my weaknesses, and well, Broch was the first to discover them, that auto cad.

The other project in the works has to do with a more mature style of illustration and with more fantasy-related subjects. I’ve been playing around with the idea for a long time now, but only recently have I started seriously thinking about it, thanks to some work I’ve been doing for Mark, whose photography web site by the way is totally not safe for work, and I don’t mean in a “You could get a hernia for not lifting with your legs” kind of way. Not safe for work, that is, unless you work on porn sites for a living or something.

[Hey, we’re all sexual human beings, and half of you find this site by searching for “alien sex” on Google anyway, so don’t act all shocked and offended by that last link. Hell, I don’t even remember ever mentioning “alien sex” anywhere on this site before today. Really, you people are sick. Everyone knows no alien would ever have sex with us; we have no snouts on our heads, we have whites in our eyes, and we’re not pink (well, not pink, except maybe H.E., who is Irish). Now that’s just downright gross to any sane alien out there.]

But anyway, that’s what I’ve been working on.

If you get a chance, look over Whimsytoons.com and send me some feedback. I’ll be working on it off and on between posts, commissions, troublemaking and belly-button picking. That belly-button picking really takes a lot out of me.

Lint, mostly, but that’s another post entirely.
