Haven’t done a “silly little picture” inspired by song lyrics in awhile. Here:
He sees her hand…

You know that old Genesis song that goes “she sees the hand and is he gonna touch it?”
No?
That’s because the real lyrics are actually “she seems to have an invisible touch, yeah.” But that didn’t stop me from misunderstanding the words for over 20 years. I was devastated when I found out I’d been singing the wrong [...]

Stranded in the combat zone!
Walked through Bedford Stuy alone!
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain!
Yeah man, I’m baaaaaad. Bad ass, man. Yup. Dude, I’m SO bad, I walk THROUGH POOR NEIGHBORHOODS ALL BY MYSELF!
I’ll also be keeping my eyes open for those same neighborhoods to get nice, y’know. Buy my daughter a condo there, maybe invest [...]

Suffer in Silence

Wow…I was a little tardy getting this one posted.
In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been using song lyrics for inspiration lately. I usually like to keep the references subtle, but I don’t want anybody thinking I want to take credit for great lines like “I had too much to dream last night” (the Electric Prunes) [...]

Be careful about dreaming too much on a Sunday, ok?
Summertime Blues

Ain’t no cure for the summertime blues!
Note: This may come as a shock to some, but I usually do these drawings spontaniously, in one shot. Such was not the case with this one. I went through about 100 drafts, and I still don’t think I got it right. The kid on the top left is having [...]
