A Case of Confused Identity

Have you ever noticed that, when a creature is in a cage, it's a pet...

But, if the same creature is running free, it's a wild, potentially dangerous animal?

Blogs Are Hard

Well, hello there!

As you might have noticed, I'm really bad at this blogging thing... no new posts for a whole year!

I hope you can forgive me.

But, unlike this blog, I haven't neglected my art, so I have tons of new pieces to show you!

This one requires a little explanation...

A few months ago, we got a parakeet. 

His name is Sylvester. 

He's kind of "special" - He can't talk, he's afraid of everything except his birdseed, and can barely fly in a straight line, so he spends his days contentedly chirping in his cage by my bedroom window while I try to figure out why we keep him around (it's because he's so darn cute).

Anyways... One day, with parakeets on the brain, I started doodling in the corner of my sketchbook, and, all of a sudden, there was Sylvester...

                                                                                      ...Sitting on the moon.

I thought it was funny, so I turned it into a full-blown artwork.

 

 He just sat there, a little dazed and quite a bit confused,

 pondering the implications of this new development. 

I told you he was cute :)
