This week got away from me so, I give you a doodle I did a couple months ago. I really want to revisit this idea and clean these cuties up into a finished piece.

Thorin Oakenshield
Today's post comes from my living room couch under a heap of blankets. My annual tangle with the flu happened this week. I managed to finish Thorin before the flu took me down.

Triple-Pie Mash Up
For the challenge of the week, my daughter and her love for Pinkie Pie was my inspiration. Here we have a triple-pie mash up, Pinkie Pie eating a piece of Pi pie.
Enjoy!

Sherri Pie Shimmy
I've really wanted to draw a burly girl lately. This, my friends, is Sherri Pie. Her little shimmy is the best around.
Color version coming soon.

Frankenstein's Monster
Frankie's monster seems a little bored with this mundane life of grunting and being misunderstood. It's not a phase. This is who he is, mom.

AWESOME MIX VOL. 1
Guardians of the Galaxy is now one of my top favorite movies of all time. All of the characters were great, but I liked Star-Lord, Peter Quill, the most. This piece captures one of my favorite scenes in the movie with Peter singing, "Come and Get Your Love," from his Awesome Mix Vol. 1 tape. I hope you enjoy my first contribution to the Scribble Nerds. I really had fun with this week's theme, Guardians of the Galaxy.

Street fashion at it's finest
I have to admit, I kind of have a little thing for fashion, especially street fashion. I used to get Shojo Beat magazine as a kid and every once in a while they would do a feature on Japanese street fashion. Before the days of fashion blogs and trend trackers, these articles were the best part of the magazine. I instantly fell in love with the incredibly unique fashions of the Shibuya and Harajuku districts.
A lot of what I absorbed from those photos informed how I dress even to this day. The whimsical mixing and matching of patterns, textures, silhouettes, and materials is addictive. With a few exceptions of the more strict subcultures, a lot of the fashion I like comes with the "I wear what I want" vibe. Crazy random pieces come together to make a cohesive look. As Dee said to me once, "The don't give a fuck attitude is an accessory all it's own."

Let's go, Red!
Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy make such a great team. They are Gotham's villainous odd couple. Between Harley's wacky antics and blunders and Ivy's idiosyncratic distaste for those less than photosynthetically inclined of Gotham, they are an adorable comedic goldmine.
This piece is for the Batman 75th Anniversary event at Carol and John's Comics TOMORROW! You can buy the original 11"x14" ink drawing for $65 or an 8.5"x11" print for $10. There is a limited number so get 'em while they're hot! A portion of the proceeds will go to Preston's H.O.P.E. The event will run from 10-10 with prizes and gifts for the more spirited attendee's (read - if you have a costume, wear it and get some cool stuff.)

Sneaky Betty
This has been a very busy week. I have been out of town and flying from airport to airport. This portrait of Betty trying on Cliff's uniform is the product of waiting for layovers and cancelled flights.

Rocketeer!
Before Iron Man flew, The Rocketeer did!
I wonder if Cliff's family can sue Stark over copyrights? No?
Ah well...extremly quick sketch...about 1hour. Pen, Ink, Prisma Markers.

Everything is Rosie
Who doesn't love Rosie from the Saturday morning cartoons of yore? The adorable and funny cyber maid of the future from The Jetsons is a classic robot darling.
