I have a mustache now, kind of like what Freddy Mercury had especially since I also have a buzz cut. 

And since I draw at fairs now I'm a carny. 

I'm Carny Mercury. Thats my new caricature name. we should all have a cool caricature names. Are we gonna be lame like studio musicians and use our own boring names??

 I couldnt decide at first if it should be Carny, Carnie, or Carney Mercury or what. I finally settled on Carny Mercury though. It doesnt look that cool though. What about carnee mercury, or karnee. oo. i kinda like that.

check out this next one here. i had an idea and i tried it. saemee wasnt there when i drew it, but. when i showed her a photo later she recoiled and couldnt look at and said it was so gross, so there you go. haha. 

anyway, Little Rock is awesome. couldnt ask for better customers. sooo fun

I love Little Rock

We got Rained out

They closed down the whole fair because there was a hurricane about to happen. Prior to this the fair in Virgina had been nothing but rain rain rain anyway. I was very happy to hear that I would get to go back to Ohio and be with my family for a little bit so that's where I am now.

me and my wife

We'll probably spend a lot of time in Walmart, and I'll probably spend time trying to meet up with old friends and relatives who I miss, who have their own lives now, that I'm not much a part of.

 Sometimes I feel like I've done a lot of making friends, becoming very close with them, and then going on to whatever's next and basically losing that friendship, because in my mind I feel like we can and will meet again, which happens, but it's still not the same as being with those people all the time--having fights--solving problems, dealing with life.


Here's a collaboration me and Saemee did of some customers that came in out of the rain.

 I recently learned about a really cool show called Geran Lagen.

 Here's another collab by Saemee and I.

 

Virginia Rainy Day

Here's jimmy.

Here's a couple I drew

Here's a little girl. I had drawn a very very cautious drawing prior to this and it had a mom waiting for me for her too young daughter dressed like a grown woman, and she asked if I could draw not funny. And I told her we just do the funny ones, and she said, immediately, ok that's fine. Can you make a lot of color in the background. I said sure. This came about. Nothin too crazy  but I like the tree on the right.
