The Art of the Stick.

You know how sometimes you can put your foot in your mouth and say you're going to do something because, at the time, you totally thought you could do it and you didn't see the harm in saying it for other people to know that particular thing is what you intended to do only you ended up not doing it and felt kinda bad because you went and drew attention to yourself?

*deep breath*

Well, that's what happened to me last year. You see, last year, blogger and artist extraordinaire, Mynx of Lizard Happy had her Art for Art giveaway. The idea was for you to submit a painting, drawing, photo, poem, or any other form of art. Heck! She even said a doodle on a napkin would be accepted. Then, she picks one randomly and that person wins one of her actual works of art. When I saw that, I foolishly commented on her post that I was tempted to give it a go... And I ended up chickening out and doing nothing. I mean, me? ART?! From... me? THE PRESSURE!!! All I have are my big-boobied stick-toons.

Anyway, this year she's having it again and again I said I'd probably... maybe... sorta consider submitting something (I know! I never learn). I guess part of the plan was to force myself to commit to doing it. Then time went by and again nothing happened.

Until today.

This time, only four days before the deadline to submit, I sucked it up, sat myself down, put mouse to mouse pad and got my tooning on. This year, my stick toons get artsy. BEHOLD!

Of  course Lacy's boobs in it! What were you expecting? Did you forget whose blog you stumbled onto?

For those of you who aren't acquainted with my stick minions history, old Steven up there is Diane's boyfriend and the first time I drew them (or any stick-toon, as a matter of fact) was when he had also gotten himself in trouble for paying too much attention Lacy's boobs (which is also why he now has to wear a mustache). Talk about never learning.

    1. Thank you too. This was just the motivation I needed. I can't believe it's been so long since I drew a good Diane & Lacy 'toon.

    1. Thanks. And if by "Vinny style" you mean me drawing a huge rack to distract everyone from my limited talent, then yeah, That's totally my thing.

  3. So when you draw/create the boobies how close is your face to the screen and is your concentration level such that your tongue is half sticking out? I think Mrs. C needs to take a picture of the artist at work.

    1. Well, sue me for having an eye for detail. As for the picture, I try to avoid the camera whenever possible. Turns out, I'm not very photogenic.

  4. Go for it, Vinny! Let your stick figures with 38-1-1 measurements do their thing!

    1. How'd you know she was a 38? I guess I'm not the only one with an eye for detail here.

    1. Thanks. To be honest, as much as I'd love to win, it was a lot of fun just doing the drawing. But, then again, I'm obsessed with boobs, so it's always fun doing this type of "artwork".

    1. I'm beginning to think I drew them too well. I may be a bit obsessed.
