The Beginning of the End!!

Man it's been too long since my last post, hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! These pages mark the last few pages remaining in this sketchbook that I started in August of 2007. Since then I have posted almost every single page from the book, for some reason. I sincerely appreciate all the awesome people that have left comments and that still check out this blog, it's really reassuring to know SOMEONE out there digs my art.

I can see now why it takes me so long to finish a sketchbook, I just can't bear to leave a single empty square inch on any page. A sign of insanity I'm sure.


If there's one article of clothing that needs to come back in style, it's the top hat. And the bow tie.


Last but not least, I would like to point everyone to this radio interview I did this past weekend:
http://www.fanboyradio.com/ Although I was on the whole three hours, you can hear me talking a little about my artwork on episode 495.1. A big thanks to Scott Hinze and everyone at Fanboy Radio for inviting me on and letting me ramble. Look for some new pages soon, and maybe a finished piece or two!

I like the guy in the first set with the ghastly eyeball hanging out. I challenge you to start off your next book with a bunch of girl/women characters ;)

HEY! So cool to hear you on the radio! Wow, what a great way to get out and market yourself. I think I would be nervous to talk about little old me over the airwaves for hundreds of people to hear. Hurrah!

As always, I get off (don't worry, not literally) on seeing your sketchbook doodles! I was immediately drawn to the weird, bouncy, man-boobs (with eyes?), the funky alarm clock character, and the use of the word "POOT!" on your last page. Always fun seeing what your brilliant/wacky mind turns out next. I admire that you are true to all your recurring themes. :)

Hey, Happy Holidays, David! Thanks for the good wishes and I hope I get to see lots more of DeGrand Land in 2009. :)
