Sorry I’ve been neglecting ye olde blog, it’s been a helluva month. A lot of ups and downs, but things are levelling off, thank goodness. Anyways, here’s some of the shenanigans I’ve been up to in my sketchbook: Cross-posted to my facebook page, and my livejournal.

Here’s a new Tanya Fail, that I finally finished. My preternatural ability to destroy ipods, is well-known throughout the land. Here’s another one, about my inability to brush my teeth without stabbing myself in the neck.

Sorry about the delay in the Tanya!fails. I was hoping to do one every few days, but life got in the way, as it is wont to do. Crossposted on my FB page, and twitter.

Here’s something I did for a submission for Uppercase Magazine, for their Gallery of Foxes. Hopefully I am accepted, because I was a bit past deadline!
