How I envy him!

Cartoon of a dirty, smelly boy. Caption reads: "He never takes a bath, eats a candy bar for breakfast and belches the alphabet in one, giant burp. Man I wish I was like him!"

Isn’t it interesting how boys get jealous of those without manners or good personal hygiene? He’s disgusting: how I envy him!

There is such as thing as “boy funk.” Some kids, like adults, must make an extra effort at good hygiene. When I was growing up, the number one role model for kids going through this issue was Pig Pen from the Peanuts comic strip. Yes, that’s most likely where I got the inspiration to draw this cartoon.

Facing Your fears

Rough sketch of a girl and a monster who is eating someone. The girl says, "You see that, Roger? That's why I don't like facing my fears."

When it comes to facing your fears, it can be tough to let people see you as vulnerable and in a rough state, like this old sketch.

When I originally posted this, I thought I’d take one of my roughs out of my sketchbook. Is it facing my fears of showing my rough lines in all its glory? Perhaps. I did a lot of sketching then but didn’t have much time to create polished artwork unless I could invoice it.

Spiritual Desert

Cartoon of a man lost in a desert looking parched. The Caption reads, "Devotions! Devotions!"

Do you ever feel like you are lost in a spiritual desert? Sure you do! We all face times that feel like we are lost in a dry, parched land. We all have times when we:

  • Get a bad diagnosis
  • Wonder if this is all there is to life
  • Suffer a relationship breakup
  • Get caught up in bad news, whether personal or through the media

Official T-shirts

Cartoon of two happy, proud men. One has a shirt that says, "Disciple #7. The other has "Disciple #3" on his shirt. The caption reads, "The disciples felt special when they received their official t-shirts."

When I drew this, I was thinking how great it would have been to be Jesus’ disciple and get official t-shirts. Did they know they were part of something really big?
