For Illustration Friday: star gazing.

Or planet plumpers. Who knows what that star is…most are planets, right?

Since I’m a night owl, I often look at the night sky and try to remember the constellations. I also take a moonlight hike with a group if I have time, and we all have a party at the top!

This is the month for shooting stars, and tonight I shall look for them.

Like a nose job or boob job, but not as permanent.

Topic for Illustration Friday: artificial.

Btw, the TWOP boards are suggesting that after Ali finished the Bachelorette she got a nose job.

I have no opinion to offer on this. I never even notice people’s noses, except if they are particularly large. I ran into Michael Richards while he was still taping Seinfeld, in a used book store in North Hollywood. He had ordered an art book for his wife.

Of course I was thrilled to see him – Seinfeld was at it’s height of popularity at the time – but standing next to him, I was shocked, I mean really, at the size of his nose. That was the main thing I remember about him. Later I ate at the Stinking Rose, in Beverly Hills, and they have portraits of large-nosed people, and his portrait was there.

There is a female cartoonist who shall remain nameless, who has the biggest nose I’ve ever seen on a woman. Again, I was shocked, and felt bad and embarrassed for her. Yes, in this case she should have gotten it fixed. She’s very successful – she can afford it.

Ali, I don’t know. Before a nose job she should have paid for a good haircut, lose the stinking extensions, and LEARN HOW TO DRESS. I have never seen someone dress so badly ever, when she has a really good figure.  Sad.

For Illustration Friday: subject is GIANT. Well, we look like giants to them. But my real giant – the only cartoon I’ve ever done with one! – is here. That was another topic for IF!

INSECTS CONTROL THE FUTURE CARTOON

Caption: Never forget, Benton, the future is ours.

You always read that at the world’s end, only the insects will survive to live another day.  Bugs will inherit the earth. Makes sense. They say it about roaches, but they are too disgusting to draw, so I picked some generic beetle.

I kind of like drawing bugs, if there was more of a market for them! What about a comic panel called Ugly… Would you read it?
