Let’s make some mugshots
by adminMy very good friend Ana over at Cupcake Conspiracy sent over one of their fine products. One night, Michelle and I had a case of the munchies and decided to try it out.
Here is what it looks like:
It’s quite easy to make. All that is needed is vegetable oil, milk, and an egg. Oh and a mug.
Step one: pour contents into microwave safe mug.
Step two: add egg, and mix.
Step three: add a tablespoon of veggie oil.
Step four: add milk. Forgot how much. Not a lot. Mix.
Step five: nuke the shit out of it.
If you’re pretty competent with a microwaving machine, it should come out looking as magical as this beast:
Flip it over onto a plate if you wanna get fancy. Otherwise, eating out of the mug is perfectly acceptable.
NOM NOM NOM!
drawing my dreams: the giant maze
by adminI keep a notebook by my bed so that if I ever remember a dream, I can write it down upon waking up. This is the first one that I’ve done. I have a lot more written down so expect some new stuff soon. Sorry for the delay! I know I haven’t posted ANYTHING in like FOREVER. I promise I’ll be better.

The Sketchbook Project
by adminMy sister and I are taking part in The Sketchbook Project. It’s a traveling art show for sketchbooks. I picked the theme “A Day In The Life.” So far I’ve only done three pages. They’re mostly drawings of interesting people I see. The captions breathe a little more life into them. Page 2 was a mistake though, I didn’t actually see a king and his midget self. That’s a sketch for the book I’m illustrating. I kinda made characters out of a matchbox too. I guess I’ll be making characters out of other random objects as well.
Buuuunch of new skateboards

high school memories
by adminI remember once we had a teacher in high school who wore this outfit to school. It was navy blue, with sequins, black thingies, and 2 very well-placed mirrors.
This would be me in high school, trying to talk to a girl.
