JESTER ON A STOOL BYE BYE BALLOON

BALLPOINT PEN & STYROFOAM CONTAINERS !

Next time you get take-out & it
comes in one of those large square
styrofoam containers ? Save the top
and the bottom, wash them off, let
them dry, then bust out a ballpoint
pen and press hard enough to etch
into the material... then... brush
watercolors, acrylic paint, or ink
over the whole thing or certain
areas and press paper evenly
atop the entire image. Peel
off carefully and- WAH-LAH !

SCARY ORGANIC ALIEN CREATURE

LOST CHIMNEY-MONKEY SKETCH

Chimney-Monkeys are a concept from
my adolescent years, about a 3rd-World
Future bogged down by War & Pollution.
These creatures are much like Gremlins,
but a higher-evolved species of Monkey
that has adapted to Life without Jungles...

TWO SIDES OF THE SAME SHEET !

This silly side of the paper has
a few totally random cartoons
by long-time friend/collaborator
Erik Victor McCrea. Check out
his Heliopolis web-page HERE,
and learn all about other Micro-
Nation & Fantasy Coins HERE.




This other side has a macabre Undead
Gypsy Fortune Teller on it, which I
can't recall came before or after:

THE HEATHENS, BAND FLYER #2

THE HEATHENS, BAND POSTER/FLYERS

Lived in Boulder Colorado back in
the early 1990's, a small band used
one of my Dream Drawings as an
advert around town for upcoming
shows. It would be cool to find one
still buried under other pieces of
paper on a telephone pole...

THE VAMPIRE THAT WE SLAYED IN A DREAM

Some time ago I posted much
of Dream Journal Volume 2
here, and, there was one illo
that captured my friend
Kevin & I waiting in
ambush to slay the
renowned Vampire
'Varney'...

Recently,
I re-discovered the
following playbill
that more than
likely inspired
that nocturne...

GIUSEPPE VERDI, INSPIRATION FOR HATMAN

Renowned 19th Century Composer
Giuseppe Verdi was the inspiration
for my comic strip character
Hatman...

ACID TRIP IN THE DESERT

Drugs would kill me now
at my age, but~ during the
young & wild years...

This was drawn @ a camp-fire
somewhere in New Mexico on
a cold November night:

GEORGE BURNS POINTILISM

UNREALISED ENVIRONMENTAL CARTOON

LOST CHARACTER DESIGN SKETCH

This was an early sketch of an 'Elite'
from the epic unfinished Graphic
Novel "500 YELLOW BIKES"...

Found sandwiched between odd-
ball religious pamphlets in one of
my art tool-boxes. I used to get
visits on Sunday Mornings
from Jehovah's Witnesses.
