Monster Heads For Dad

I did a painting of some monster heads for my dad as a belated Christmas Gift. They are just random little monster heads, but if I had to name them, it would be: Bone Tongue, Scalesy Flipperton, The FEZ, Ocular Wingford, Horny McHornton, Googly El-Vez.

Spontaneous Leprosy

I'm not sure if this card's text reveals some inner self-criticism about my unpleasant aura or something. But here it is.

Mecha-Ape from 2005

I wanted to post something before the year's end, but I didn't finish the painting I'm working on yet. So instead I'm posting an old random sketch from 2005! It's a mecha-ape with four fingers and candy-red nipples. Not sure where I was going with this one.

Anthropomorphic Entrway

Another Pettyland creature: A door face! I can't claim that it is particularly '80's, but it is quite nasty if you encounter one.

Dingleberry Invasion!

I warned you that more tasteless Pettyland cards were coming. Here's one of many.

Jekyl & Hyde Together Again

I recently painted a little piece for a gallery show based on the Rankin & Bass movie Mad Monster Party. You can check out the other pieces at Van Eaton Galleries website here: http://www.vegalleries.com/

Below I posted the final piece, a small gouache painting (8"x10") on printmaking paper as well as a few process shots and a bunch of little doodles and sketches I did to warm up, since I had never drawn any of these characters before.

Random Tentacles

What game would be complete without random tentacles? 

Melting Purple Cow

There's a lot of radiation in this game! Over the years, I've drawn many cows, but never a healthy looking one. I'm not sure what I have against them. Perhaps my distorted view of these majestic creatures is because I was allergic to all dairy products as a child.

Vegetarian Butcher Stacking Doll

I did this commission for a Stacking fan a little while ago. He asked for a vegetarian butcher. To emphasize the PURE TERROR caused by the butcher, I included a little cowering broccoli doll with a vegan afro.I also snuck in some celery eyebrows and a carrot nose for the butcher.

Beer-Guzzling Pseudo-Jock Asshole Dude

Oh, 1989, how I remember you. You were clearly the inspiration for this creature in Pettyland.
