acrylic and permanent marker on canvas, 24″x30″

A new painting! I’m working on a few paintings of old toys; this was the best drawing I’ve come up with so far. Lots of junk in the basement to inspire me.

The dog is driving my car (hmph). 2′x2′; acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

Based on some childhood toys – I found the dog in the car in the garage of the playhouse; guess I left it like that years ago.

The Cotton Club. 2′x2.5′; acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

ROM Puffins. 2′x4′; acrylic on wood. Awesome frame built by Mr. Keating. Based on a drawing I did at the ROM last September.

Yes, it’s been a slow couple of weeks for comics, but I have been productive. Here are some more paintings! Alright!

My contributions to the Erotic show on now at the Leyton gallery in St. John’s. It’s up until November 29th.

Hot Karate Lesson and Over the Fence, both are 20″x24″, acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

You can decide which is which.

The deadline is tomorrow, but there’s still time to enter The New Yorker 2009 Eustace Tilley Contest.

Here’s my go! It’s a blind contour version! Go figure.
