Storytime: The Bird and the Eraser

Here's a funny story from H. about birds being tormented by erasers:

A.'s 2 years of Pokemon

When A. was around 6 years old Pokemon were his muse. He'd play as much Gameboy as we'd allow, and then read his Pokeman handbook and then just draw. For 2 years he drew nothing but Pokemon.

Quick Sketches

H. goes back to school tomorrow. There were lots of characters this week including a Porcupine, a Threadbare Astronaut and "Teddy Bear Rage". A. did a drawing of Donkey Kong.

Comic Strips!

A. and H. are writing comics. It's a lot more work than just drawing characters. A.'s comic is about a couple of toddlers who open a casino, but first they have to break out of school.




H.'s comic is about a LITTLE BUNNY with a very hungry big brother (hmm...). Click the image to get a large view to read.
