So we own a house! Closing was actually pretty painless, except for having to sign my names so many times that I forgot how to spell it, with the end result that the government probably thinks the co-owner of the place is named Usrul N. Venn. (The actual Usrul N. Venn is probably living somewhere […]

And this is the last one! I swear! Because if my realtor doesn’t get back to me in the next hour with the total for closing costs so I can get a cashier’s check, I’m gonna drop dead of anxiety and never paint again! http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/31108528/
Tomorrow morning, we close. This evening, we do The Final Walkthrough. This afternoon, I have to get a cashier’s check for some ludicrous sum for closing costs. This morning, I am sitting at my desk and twitching like a gaffed fish. My hands tremble. My stomach roils. My bowels…actually, let’s just leave them out of […]
This one’s for Batty Den, and his longsuffering care of those adorable echidna puggles! Also, any excuse to draw puggles in diapers. http://www.deviantart.com/view/31075836/
Power, cable, gas, internet, water & sewer & trash, oh my! Making all the calls so that we’re not sitting in a darkened house without running water come Friday. I should also Really Really Really be working on Digger, since there’s no chance I’ll get to work on it this coming weekend, but my brain […]
Another tea label! This time featuring a tanuki, which I’ve never drawn before, so I’ll issue a blanket “If your workplace has a problem with stylized tanuki testicles, this is NSFW.” And there’s another statement I wasn’t sure I’d utter in this lifetime… I dunno about the design, the colors are a little sedate, but […]
Another sign I’m getting old (or perhaps that my fans are getting younger and younger…) Instead of “I love your art! Will you marry me?”, I’m getting “I love your art! Will you adopt me?” My feelings about this are mixed. Oh, well, at least they like the art…
Dad beat the HOA! Apparently the HOA’s lawyer told them flat out that they’d lose the case, and it would cost them a lot of money they didn’t have, so they publically and grumpily dropped the case against Dad’s solar panels. He’s still going to go speak to the Senate on behalf of solar power […]
Hey, it’s a big kitchen. I needed at least two labels! I wish I could effortlessly turn out the kind of sleekly minimalist shapes that some artists excel at–alas, my nature is to slather on rather than trim away. I’m still not sure how I got the original wombat that slimmed down to begin with! […]
Decided to do a set of the Wombat Tea labels for my own kitchen (at least, if all goes according to plan.) I’m not sure about the dead space on this one. It’d be nice to put in “Wombat on Ice” or something, but I suspect it’d get too cluttered. If anybody has any suggestions, […]
