It is spelled "necessarily" not "nececelery". You are now having trouble pronouncing it properly. Welcome to my life, courtesy of my dad.

Goat
Since it seems every webcomic artist has debuted a pony character, I decided to get in on that action. If good artists copy and great artists steal, the best artists must bastardize, amiright?? And yeah, I totes stole the newsprint halftone coloring thing from Johnny Wander. Just felt like trying it out. I don't think I'll do any other comics with it.
p.s. this is my 200th post on this blog! that's a milestone, right???
Well This Is Awkward.
I don't like doing this, but I'm taking a 4 or 5 day hiatus from bloggin'. I'll be occupied this whole weekend, and the very lasty-last last thing I should be worrying about is drawing a comic. I'll have something for you next week; I'll draw shit over the weekend, it's just a pain in the ass to get it internet ready. I'm sorryyyyyyyy I know I promised everyday updates! I just can't swing it this time.

Napkin Doodles
As often happens when someone starts a lecture while people have resources available, Lydia and I drew up some fione artwork during a presentation at my church's brunch. No insult to the speaker, of course.
Can skull-banana-monkey become a meme plz?!

Truer words are hard to come by. Here's her blog; she's incredibly talented, so I respect all her opinions about art. If you're looking for the context of this quote, go to her Jan 19th 2011 post (eye makeup how-to illos).

Double Shot Mocha, Please
Is this is my new favorite afternoon snack? Why extra espresso? Don't you feel jittery? Why are my arms so stumpy? These are al good questions that i will be addressing next episode in "Rachel is a Type of Crazy Person". Tune in.
Irrational Fears
This comic was completed with more ease than most. Strange feeling, being able to just plow through a comic without second guessing any of it.
Excuses Etc
I can't manage a comic today; I'm between classes watching The Wire for another two hours. I'll make it up with a double thingamajig tomorrow.
Sharpie
I'm working on a project for illustration class. We can only use pencils, sharpies, pens, and charcoal (b&w basically) to draw four emotion based images. I chose to use sharpies for the darkest drawing of the bunch, which I have been working on for the past 45 min or so. I had forgotten one characteristic of sharpies:
I have been unwittingly huffing sharpie fumes in my poorly ventilated room. Ohhh.... my ssssinuses...
Looking at my face WHY
I am not used to being on the opposite end of a sneaky sketch! I got a taste of my own medicine fo sho hahh
