Scarf weather

It's been a chilly, rainy, gray week in Southern California.

Disarming a Werewolf

I was going to draw one of my family's hyper dogs but decided to go werewolf instead:

October Chaos

Here are a couple of drawings of a friend's cat. Chaos is a sweet-natured Siamese with a charming, Ruben-esque figure. By that I mean he is so round that pretty much any way he sits, stands, or poses himself is comical. So here he is:

On the topic of cats and cat drawings, awesome illustrator/cat lover Otto Tang has started a blog. Check out his stuff!

Also, this month we've started Titblog Inc., the Titmouse artists' blog. Go visit to see some of our weekly drawing challenges, drawing jams, and other things Titmice do after hours (note, some posts are nsfw :P)

During my drive in to work, I often see some interesting looking pedestrians. A couple mornings ago I spotted this head-turner at an intersection. He was dressed a lot like The Shadow, with a wide-brimmed hat, a long coat, etc. He did not, however, have a proper scarf to wear over his face so he improvised by donning a child's button-up t-shirt instead. He also had random articles of clothing tied around his sleeves and they swooshed like a cape when he moved. He did quite a bit of pacing and erratic swishing and glaring in the short time I was stopped at that light. Hands down my favorite crazy person and/or hobo of the month.
