Personal fink (252)

I woke up super early today (5am) and drew this. My brother-in-law is really into the car scene and we went to a car show together last weekend. There was a lot of Rat Fink merchandise at the show. I guess I’ve had Rat Fink on my mind since then and I decided to draw my own personal Rat Fink today. If you don’t know about Rat fink you can read more about him here. I was listening to the band OFF! while I drew this so I put him in an OFF! t-shirt. OFF! is a newer band with Keith Morris on vocals. Keith Morris was the frontman of the punk bands Black Flag and the Circle Jerks. If you liked those bands you will probably love OFF!

Some day I’ll be a better guitar player(251)

I don’t practice enough. Here is a drawing of me in my backyard playing guitar while my dog sleeps by my feet.

Oh yeah… and here is an illustration I completed the other day for an article about Facebook and how it is slowly dying. On top of that I feel like the public’s faith in banks and the stock market continues to fade. At a time like this things like what Mark Zuckerberg pulled are not helping public opinion at all. I posted this on my other page Thecrayonwar.com as well.

Where’s the beef? (250)

Today the company Beef Products laid off 650 workers. Although I am glad that there will be less “pink slime” out there in our food supply I still feel horible for all the people who lost their jobs. Here is an article about the lay offs.

American trucker (249)

Here is what I imagine a truck driver looks like…

I realize that not all truck drivers look like this, but this is what pops into my head when I think of one. This and the truck drivers from the movie The Wizard.

Today I have decided to also post an older illustration of mine that I am quite fond of. I made this about a year ago for the website IllustrationFriday.com, the topic was Swept. I was digging through some of the files on my old computer when I came across this.

As always, thanks for following! (Don’t forget, if you have any drawing requests for this page you can send them to Phenzyart@gmail.com)

Say cheese! (248)

The other day my wife found my Cannon Rebel 2000 in the closet of our house. I had been looking for that thing for almost a year. I bought it way back in 2000 or 2001 when it was about $800.00, ughhhhh now I wish I had a nice digital SLR… but I don’t. The sad thing is that no one wants an old film camera anymore. I still plan to use it soon though. After we found the camera it gave me the idea to draw someone taking a picture. I didn’t get around to drawing it till today though. Here it is:

Also, since we are on the subject of photography be sure to check out my friend Sarah’s website. (cavamania.tumblr.com)
She is a photographer from the Philadelphia area and she has some really great work posted on her website!

Hungry (247)

Tonight I drew a hungry Aligator…or is it a crocodile? I don’t really know the difference.
I haven’t eaten dinner yet and it’s already 8:30pm, I normally eat dinner by at least 5 o’clock!
Time to fire up the grill!

Nintendo (246)

Anyone who visits this blog regularly knows Im into video games. Nintendo is my favorite game company out of all of them out there. I thought this idea up early today and drew it up while watching the movie The Sitter (It was a super funny movie).
