Floral Dilemma Challenge complete...

Whoa! So I've been packing up all my crap and moving and stuff. I'm somewhat settled in my new place and even have the internets again!

Thanks to all those who partied on July's challenge. I'm sure there's a few floaters hanging out there somewhere. I can't wait to see'em!

TEN Floral Dilemmas!

Last month I struggled to come up with an idea, this month it just came to me instantly. I don't know much about flowers, but I know one thing; cats love to eat them.

Having a buttload of cats (more like TEN buttloads!) we constantly face the same dilemma over and over. Do we (read: Lindsay) buy pretty flowers? It would spruce up our house and hide the noxious fumes, but we also run the risk of the cats eating them, making a mess and puking them up?

It's a real "Floral Dilemma," to say the least.

bad kitty! you are bad and ohmygoshyouaresocuteiwanttodie!

If this looks kind of familiar to those who know my work, it should.

I drew a sketch of a cat (specifically Oliva) eating flowers, and as I started recreating it digitally, I realized it was basically the same drawing with slight changes.

So I sped up the process by re-purposing the old artwork. Some (Adam) might call it lazy and cheating, but others (me) call it smart and crafty and awesome and I should probably be commended for being so efficient!

Luckily Adam can't be mad, because he's still laughing over that "TEN buttloads" joke that only he probably gets.

I don't like flowers

But man, do I love flour. Delicious, powdery flour. This guy loves flour too. He loves it so much he lives in it. He loves it so much it is a true dilemma. The dilemma being that his very presence taints the flour and ruins its decadent purity. This guy, in fact, is a jerk. A stupid flour-stomping jerk.

June's Super Awesome Art Challenge is...



This month's challenge logo (despite a few technical difficulties) is brought to us by Bryan. The theme is Floral Dilemma...think real hard about the logo and it will make sense. That Bryan is a clever guy. Anyway, bring on the flowers! Bring on the dilemma! It's go time!
