Drawing Prevents Carpel Tunnel

Here is a quickie... it helps to take breaks from painting toys for the health of my hand. Maybe color soon, who knows. Crappy phone pic also.

Pea is perfect!

This is Miss Pea. She likes to sit in the window of my studio and watch me paint... hope nobody gets cat hair in their art!

"The Neon Imposters" Dunny Series Preview #2

Here are four more! Purple Invert, Purple, Pink Invert and Green. My main influence for these guys is a passage from Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs: "So we pour it in a Pernod bottle and start for New Orleans past iridescent lakes and orange gas flares, and swamps and garbage heaps, alligators crawling around on broken bottles and tin cans, neon arabesques of motels, marooned pimps scream obscenities at passing cars from islands of rubbish.... New Orleans is a dead museum..."

Release date is still FRIDAY MAY 27th @ 10am PST in my store!
