Things went downhill fast, didn't they? I'll keep updating, I promise, when things settle down a little bit.

Because I didn't update yesterday, here are two drawings:

13: Lamp

Sometimes I feel like my lamp is watching me work.

Phoning it in for the holidays, here's a quick (quick) sketch:

Those spiders are at it again:
