Laka & Mirela

I always end up painting quirky musicians or performers that I like. This is called Con Pollo: Inspired by Laka and Mirela. My new favorite Bosnian musicians.

Illustration Friday-Sail


Getting Mommy to let them go sailing was easy. LuLa didn't mention how easy it would be to convince her stupid little brother that swimming in shark infested waters was a fabulous idea.

LuLa

LuLa couldn't understand why she was the one sent to her room. It wasn't her fault her stupid little brother couldn't tell the difference between spaghetti and a bowl of earth worms.For the first time in her life, LuLa felt something that could only be described as LOVE. No matter how many times LuLa asked for a tarantula doll all her Grammy made were bears and bunnies.When LuLa started playing "William Tell" Mommy realized she had made a huge mistake taking the children apple picking.

Day of the Dead


I bought a bunch of FEMO a while ago. I pulled it out the other day and made little skulls. Then whole people. Now I have some Day of the Dead figures.

Devil

May the Devil make a ladder of your backbone while he is picking apples in the garden of Hell. -Irish Toast (or Curse)

Illustration Friday-POOF!


A hush came over the crowd at Horizon Hills Retirement Home as Malvo the Magnificent prepared for his only decent act of Magic. He was going to make his lovely assistant, Doris, disappear. POOF! As the smoke cleared Doris quickly realized something was dreadfully wrong. Malvo, who by all accounts was the worst magician ever had somehow mustered up enough true magic to turn himself into a rat. Doris quickly ran to scoop up Malvo while the show's mascot, Toots the Owl, contemplated the fact that he hadn't eaten lunch yet.

I had to resort to the magic "poof"...the only other idea that came to mind felt a little too politically incorrect.
