More drawings...in color!

I found an old sketchbook from college the other day when I was cleaning out my shitpile closet. I was so happy to find this particular book. It's small with a hard, black cover and I can take it anywhere. This is the first page in it, another page of random brain fart boredom doodles. I remember it was the first day of school and my art teacher was giving a lecture on what was expected of us that semester and all of that blah blah blah usual stuff. I can't help but doodle during lectures. Later on in the semsester I colored the page with colored pencils...

Tell me, what are some of the things you see on this page? Feel free to ask, "What in the HELL is that??!" I LOVE it when people ask me that...or when they point to a particular doodle and ask, "Why? WHY?" Sends me into hysterics!

That same year I seem to have become obsessed with frogs. There are several pages of frogs in this particular book. These two pages are my favorites...

This second one I did during my other classes. It was colored with hilighters and a red ball point pen. I love how it turned out. I'm going to try to have this sketchbook with me a lot so that I can jot down ideas and sketches whenever. Isn't that what real artists do? It's fun anyway. I'm feeling all inspired again.

Your cartoons are adorable. I would give anything to be able to draw things that are three dimensional like the frog whose tongue is wrapped around the stem. Excellent work, my dear. Ribbit!
