Mr. Squirrelly   December 21, 2007 Quite a long time ago, friend and former roomate Matt asked me to draw a picture of Mr. Squirrelly, for his son, as that was a character they had invented. The best I could muster was a couple of quick squirrel studies based on some photos I found on the Internet, but they didn't even merit getting posted here. So, in a rush to have SOME sketch for December, I decided it might be best to have a go at it. Mr. Squirrelly, or possibly Squilly (his son is probably now out of college, married, divorced and about to retire, or maybe 5, I lose track of these things) was described to me as being mischievious. Since it's winter now, my mind wandered to winter activities like sledding. And thus I put Mr. Squilly (hmmm, it's easier to type than Squirrelly) in that situation, specifically on the sled. Of course it's reminiscent of Calvin and Hobbes, that can't be helped. Tomorrow's picture is the same, with a few colors thrown in for good measure.

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.

Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't. I don't care.
