Illustration Friday: Help


This time of year has been a little crazy. Surely you can understand, right? I’ve been wanting to do an illustration for this week’s Illustration Friday theme. I’ve settled for something right out of my sketchbook. Here it is in its unedited form. Well, okay, I did erase the acne from Santa’s forehead. Other than that, this is right out of the sketchbook.

I was thinking what poor Santa would do if he had mechanical trouble on Christmas Eve. What if that old sleigh has seen one Christmas Eve too many?

Everybody’s gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas?

I was at a work luncheon and Santa Claus showed up. He was roasting some key employees because they’ve been naughty this year.

I started thinking, “Wow! nobody has been nice this year.” So Santa gave me gift in the form of this cartoon. Thanks, Santa!

Christmas Lights

Cartoon of boy hanging Christmas lightsCartoon of boy hanging by gutter. He says, “Get Dad! Tell him I’m sorry I started putting up Christmas lights without him and I could really use his help!”

It has been warm for an Indiana Christmas. I was able to put the Christmas lights on the house and wear a short-sleeve shirt. This time, my kids didn’t have to wait for me. You know how impatient they get!

Caption reads: “Get Dad! Tell him I’m sorry I started putting up Christmas lights without him and I could really use his help!”

Illustration Friday: Masks

The word for this week at Illustration Friday is “mask.” I was thinking about all the masking that goes on during the holidays. This is straight out of the old sketchbook.

Monster Christmas

Monsters says, “The great thing about being a monster around Christmas is it’s the one day I can wear a red outfit with my green skin.”

I did this cartoon a few years ago. I’m pretty sure “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” had something to do with this cartoon. It’s either that or one particularly moving episode of “Sesame Street.”
