DAY 13: two strange pages
Very sleepy tonight, but two pages of doodles in the (yes, you guessed it) Disneyland autograph book:
CAST: A melting version of the cat at Borderlands (my local sf bookshop), 3 boner ghosts and an ugly dancing/sexy tomcat a la Paula Abdul’s “Opposites Attract” video
Cast: A simple crying face (I actually kind of like this one). [media: sakura foam sumibrush, zebra small brush pen]

your boner ghosts haunt me..
dude I love the sexy dancing tomcat. SO SEDUCTIVE!
amberkee: these three are part of a huge, compulsive army of ghosts I’ve drawn. THEY HAUNT ME TOO!
helllen: i can’t figure out what’s going on with his face– there’s this awful McCain jowel asymmetry thing happening because i’m sloppy, haha.
Mummified/Methuselah cat is rad! The rightmost ghost is so sad to have a boner.
I didn’t do a good job, but here is one random photo of the actual cat I was trying to summon:

I also like the crying face. But that cat photo you just posted is kind of horrifying.
Do the boner ghosts have some sort of history/mythology? Why do they appear in groups? Why do they have boners? I MUST KNOW
Paula Abdul’s cat was named MC Skat Cat, I believe. I really like these drawings… there’s great energy in them!
I wanna see how this situation plays out. Have the boner ghosts possessed MC Skat/Scat Cat? Is that why he’s so damned butta smoov? What’s gonna happen when he tries to Borderlands’ cat tongue bath?
It’s the topic of a jam comic that needs to get made.
Sophia, I thought it came to spontaneously, but I just remembered that Derek (cartoonist and artist for Aquaria) actually drew this 8-panel BONER GHOST comic in the back of a mad libs book of mine a few years ago. I must have come across it again and it seeped into my mind.
I won’t make you guys look at it, but I seriously filled an entire 11×17 sheet of bristol with boner ghosts when I was testing out various brush pens and needed something simple and repetative to draw. OH GOD, SHOULDN’T HAVE ADMITTED THAT.
