I don’t mean to alarm anybody, but this man has a cupcake head. And no body, apparently.

Another Crazy Smiley Face
I don’t know why this keep happening:
This is the second crazy smiley face that spontaneously formed when I added soy sauce to olive oil. This one is even crazier than the first one. I am marinating chicken tenderloins in it.

Spooky Snowman
Over the years, I’ve painting more scary snowmen than you might guess. This was the first one.

Crazy Duck
What’s even more ridiculous than a crockoduck? This:
I need to get back to my roots and start doing paintings like this again. Really…

King
There’s not much to say about this painting. It’s basically just Sharpie and two light washes of acrylic on canvas board. I like how simple it is.

Talk About Squawk
Here is another painting I did back in college. I can’t really explain what is going on. Not sure why the lion riding a skateboard in front of flames is holding a Bible. I have no idea why I name this painting Talk About Squawk. Anyway, it is the drawing of the day.

The Ass
The drawing of the day for 2/27/11 is an album cover I made back in 1995 for the premier album of my old band called The Ass.
The guy is Brandon Lee as The Crow. We sang a song about him. We also sang a song about Robocop, which explains the Robo-donkey-cop. I was trying to do this in the Drew Struzan movie poster style. This is a poor photo of it, I think I have a decent scan that I could find/didn’t bother looking for. By the way, we weren’t a “real” band, and recently, I was made aware that there is a “real” band calling itself The Ass. They are probably much better than we were.

Donkeyshines Jr.
As a way to be able to bring you more designs and more product options, I have decided to open up a Donkeyshines sister store, which I am calling Donkeyshines Jr. This store is powered by Spreadshirt, which is a print-on-demand site. One of the pros of POD’s is that you can make almost an unlimited number of products with virtually no initial cost to the designer. There are some compromises that have to be made with this type of set-up. For one, I definitely make less money per shirt. This is fine with me, as it is worth it to be able to offer many varieties of products without having to worry about which colors and styles will be most popular. I can literally make something for everyone when it comes down to it. Another disadvantage, though, is that POD’s can’t offer screen printing. However, the reason I chose Spreadshirt over the other POD sites is that they offer a really nice alternative, called flex printing. This will be good for new one or two color designs. They also order digital direct printing, which is a noticeable improvement to transfers. With digital direct, I can offer designs with unlimited numbers of colors. I don’t want to go too much into details with the printing techniques, but I am overall pretty excited about this new store. I love the arrangement I have with Printmojo, and Donkeyshines will still be my main site, but I am happy to be able to expand. Here is a new design I just added to Donkeyshines Jr. yesterday.

3-minute Stallone Caricature
Te drawing of the day for 2/24/11 is a sketch I did of Stallone in about 3 minutes.
I made this illustration for an article I wrote describing a dream I had last night about a new Rocky movie that was being made. Rocky fights a Leprechaun. Read the whole article.
