Glance out on deck. See two squirrels goin’ at it like bunnies on the railing. I have the blinds partially drawn, so there’s only a two foot stretch of deck railing visible, out of at least twenty feet of available railing, and they appear to have deliberately found the one spot where a casual glance […]

Orc Nouveau, take two! I started from scratch this time, and was much more pleased. WARNING! CONTAINS ORC BOOBS! http://www.deviantart.com/view/26086667/ If not a DA member, try: http://www.metalandmagic.com/modules.php?set_albumName=album01&id=celadon&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_photo.php
See, this is what happens when I’m running around, clucking like the deranged, doing print orders, and a book cover, and Orc Nouveau on the side. “Digger” gets picked as one of the Best of 2005 by the Webcomics Examiner, and I miss it for two days until an Alert Reader (thank you!) sends me […]
You know it’s one of those evenings when you hear yourself say to your husband “You can appreciate a feminine tusk! I like that in a man!” Of course, since it’s James, he takes this completely in stride. And I like that in a man, too.
It’s raining out now. Not a pounding rain, but something a step up from a drizzle, a prolonged, penetrating rain that has taken most of the leaves out of the trees and thoughtfully relocated them to the deck. I would not go out in this weather, and I suppose on some level I assumed that […]
I am bummed that I couldn’t pull the color scheme together on this one–the idea makes me so happy. I may have to start over with another composition and try a different color scheme or something, but for now, I can at least share the scrap. http://www.deviantart.com/view/26040481/ Maybe the problem is the lizard. Orc chicks […]
Had you told me that my first act this morning would be to draw a brain wearing a fez and a Groucho mask, in order to illustrate part of a point about whether or not you can anthropomorphize a brain, as part of an argument that astoundingly had nothing to do with furries, I…well, I […]
I am not even sure how I wound up there–a random process of googles and chasing interesting tidbits–but evidentally there’s a Hindu myth about the child Krishna defeating a great crane-demon named Bakasura. Mmm…giant crane demons…that’s kinda cool.
And just to top off what was already an exceedingly excellent day, I was settling in for a nap and looking out the back window, watching the white-breasted nuthatches hop around the trees, when I spotted a little brown bird going up the tree just like a nuthatch. It had a much longer tail, instead […]
Egad! I have been sent a lovely gift, and I can’t find the e-mail of the sender! So, Theodotus, if you’re reading this–the urban stalgamite is cool and weird (and now I’m contemplating parking structures turning into caves) and the dodo statue is charming and has joined the geekosphere atop my monitor. Thank you! It […]
