Justin F’s illustrations and nifty doodles
A harried pet-owner that I scratched out for an article in a pet magazine this week. It helps drive home two enduring beliefs: (1) dogs are lovable in their doltishness and (2) cats are evil yowling nightmare creatures that will gleefully chew off your face when you fall asleep.
My father recently took a nasty fall and busted his hip. While I’m happy that he’s on the road to recovery, I’m disappointed that the surgeons nailing the pins into his bones didn’t just take the time to rebuild him with something more technologically advanced and chicken-leggy. Get well soon!
Hugbot will crush your trachea with his love. I haven’t updated in a while as my laptop’s hard drive died a painful, ignoble death. It took a while to get it replaced and my archives reinstalled… But here I am!
Bryan (check out his awesome paper foldables site) wanted me to draw this failed pantomime from a few months ago, when we spent a weekend in the woods with friends. The strip isn’t entirely truthful: most of the eloquent despair I’m spouting in the comic happened as an internalized monologue. The external reality was a bunch of swearing, sulking, looking confused, and more swearing. I dunno why I haven’t posted this until now, but the final result has me looking considerably less like a whiny punk.
I’m going to a Phillies game soon, so I’ve got baseball fever crawling beneath my skin like a thousand tiny insects. Like the previous post, this is an illustration for an article in an automotive magazine about different ways to market your company (in this case, sponsoring youth sports to get attention… or exploiting children… or something).
Here’s an illustration of a laptop guy that I drew for an automotive magazine. He reminds me of the creepy guy you see hunched over his Macbook at a coffeeshop, most likely looking at some of the most disgusting porn imaginable.
I drew this cartoony mascot for The Abra-Cadavers, the greatest Philly-area softball team in the history of the universe.
So, I was visiting a friend in Chicago over the weekend and noticed that he had this huge, four or five-foot-long painting hanging on the wall of his office downstairs. I had painted it for him some years back and completely forgotten about it. It reminded me of the painting in the previous post (except huger!), so I whipped out my digital camera and took a few shots for archival purposes.
Yes, I need to get over the whole robot thing.
I splattered some acrylics on a canvas and here’s the result. That poor guy’s gonna be on the deadly end of a robot’s flying hug.
Just a quick sketch that I’m thinking about turning into a painting.
