Many Silly Things #5

What are the warning signs that you have begun crossing over from the real of ‘artist’ into ‘obsessive compulsive lunatic’ territory? The symptoms can be subtle at first.

Many Silly Things #2

In the grand annals of Cartoonology and Cartoonionomy there have been many visionaries and pioneers who have left their glorious doodles upon history. This is that blog which has descended from their art of old and herein we have taken the essence of their acumen and clothed it in the garb of silly. For here the covenant betwixt scribbler and scribblee, image and word, setup and punchline may be fulfilled and forever held sacrosanct under the grace of the jovial prophets of old.

Also I drew this thingy about toast.
