Kind of late, but here is a quick sketch for this week. I guess that is better than nothing.

May I be the first to say that's a riot - someday, when I grow up I hope I can be as good as you when you do a "quick sketch". :o) Love your work! Always makes me smile!

Funny.....until I realized my mattress isn't too far off from this...ouch! :-)Time to replace it, I suppose! For a sketch, it's primo!

I really like your take on spring and I love the details like the patch on the bed. Really fun!

Very expressive. It reminds me of an episode of the Roseanne show from a long time ago, when Dan, (John Goodman) complained about sleeping on a bad mattress, saying there was a "spring in my pancreas!"

I can almost hear the *boing* as that spring popped! I love the colors you used this week...and, LOVE the sleepmask, and all of the other small details (the toe popping out of the socks...the patch on the atrerss...even the wheels on the bed frame! Awesome!

Hey! I've got one of those mattresses. And here I thought I was the only one. Hysterical as ever.

This is WAY better than nothing...
This is a quick sketch? I'd love to know how you did it that made it quick... Even when I do "stupid" pieces I work and work and work and I get carpal "shoulder" etc.

Liz Wong said...

What great body language. Even the shape of the bed is expressive. That's a pretty impressive sketch!

Either he's so tired that he doesn't notice that spring, or he's been stabbed in the back... Very funny! I love the details...toe poking out of the sock, open mouth, patch on the old matress...your "quick sketch" is pretty darn cool!

Excellent Guy, love the little touches like the patch on the mattress and the hole in the sock.
