Love in Rubiksworld’s art birthday!  I made this one year ago today but I didn’t get on tumblr until July of 2011, so it has never been published here.

“Rat Bastard” logo I designed for my very dear (very evil) longtime friend, Tim. His fencing buddies gave him the nickname so he decided to one-up them by having a patch made.

I need to do more of these things, anyone want to see a particular subject?  Ponies, peonies, pe questionable things, I don’t care.

Here’s that new Slenderman 11x17 print for Night Gallery 2013 by the way.

Here he is! My first brand-new piece for Night Gallery 2013, the Plague Doctor.  If Wikipedia is to be trusted, the beaks these doctors wore were full of straw and herbs to try and keep them from breathing in the “bad air” thought to cause the plague, and their sticks were used to examine plague sufferers without touching them.  One image source claimed the sticks were also used to prod plague victims away if they tried to get too close.  (Such as Doc is doing here)  Some patients, thinking they were ill because of sins on their conscience, reportedly asked the doctor to whip them.

I’ve seen a couple of depictions of them carrying censers too, so I’ve included some smoke.  Hope you like it!  This is an 11x17 print.

I have made us all tardigrade cringe. I hope you join me in welcoming this exciting new genre into the universe.
