Got into LAX last night at 12:30 when they were putting all the planes to sleep. They had the back doors opened up and were throwing garbage bags out into a heap on the ground below. It looked like all the planes were taking a shit. I call this one "Planes Taking a Shit".

Angka: A fabulous bird in the folklore of the Middle East described as having a human face and resembling a Griffin or Simurgh. It was said to inhabit the Kaf Mountains, where it devoured anything living it came across. It was so successful that it hunted everything to extinction, resulting in it's own demise.

Here's the only part I like. It's based in Philadelphia in 1976.

Here's a crazy job I just had. Doing a poster for the live action Disney movie "Invincible" starring Mark Wahlburg... (here's the good part) for a Korean Airline's Inflight Magazine. I know it doesn't look like Mark Wahlburg, but they said they didn't care. It's based more on the guy the film was made about named Vince Papale, he's way more fun to draw. I'm sure if Disney had any idea how their film was being marketed they'd have a fuckin' heart attack.

Someone contacted me about doing a piece for a show about drawing a 1950 Ford from memory. I couldn't sleep so here it is.

I saw this little bastard at Seven Seas Taco stand on Sunset

Mr. Fuzzums.

Here's something you'll only see if you live in LA, and even then not very often.
Jamie Lee Curtis and her son looking at an Animatronic Mastadon.

I didn't draw this but I wish I had. Jonathan pulled it off the internet while looking for a copy of Dracula on Ebay. Does anyone know who drew this and where I can get more? Someone tell me the name and location of my new hero.

Here's another.

Here's a little scene from our camping trip to Yosemite last weekend.

I think I'd rather be penetrated by teeth than a straw. Who's with me?

I bought a bottle of red ink today. What do you draw when you have a bottle of red ink? Vampires of course.

Sunday Morning at 8:30 we were driving by Wilshire and Crescent Heights and saw this... A Homeless Guy setting up an ironing board on the corner.
I'm pretty sure if we had driven by 30 seconds later we would have seen this...

This was the very last thing that happened to me before I left Norway. A perfect bookend to the Handjob (see previous post) that was the first thing I saw.
This concludes our tour of Norway, you now know just as much as a native born Norwegian, I hope you had a lovely time. Coming this spring... what I Like and Don't Like about Japan.

The Last of the Likes/Don't Likes. Next up... the last thing that happened to me on the way out of the country.
