Illustrations

Much like Gob Bluth from Arrested Development, Harey Houdini hops out on stage to Europe's "The Final Countdown".

There's an episode of R.L. Stine's "The Nightmare Room" where Shia LaBeouf plays a high schooler named Dylan who had a doll named Buddy as his best friend growing up. The doll comes to life as a little boy (portrayed by the Cole Sprouse) and tries to harm Dylan's high school friends.

I didn't have a best friend doll, but I DID have a teddy bear, which I creatively named "Teddy," and I'm hoping he doesn't come back for revenge!

Part of a "30 Days of Critters" drawing challenge on Instagram, the prompt was "Trash Cat", and the final result was a cross between Garfield and Oscar the Grouch. I also decided it would be fun to include "Skater Rat" from a previous day's prompt.

While going through everything at my grandparents' farm after my grandma had passed away, I came across this old stuffed doll (see below). I liked that it was wearing a jumpsuit with a little logo patch on it, and I had the idea to make an illustration where a boy and girl were in a fantastical world filled with friendly plants and animals. The idea culminated with me designing a cute sticker sheet of the characters.
