Department Store Santa

Ladybug Santa asks that you not sit on his lap.


Here’s my December cartoon for the Pet Gazette. Happy holidays to you, whatever you celebrate, for Ladybug Santa visits everyone. Eventually. Given the proper clime and foliage.

I REALLY like this one Paula. I especially like the "This a'way sign."...nice touch.

Bonus trivia not asked for...The ladybug is the state insect of Massachusetts.

Super-bonus-secret-crossover blog comment trivia...Michigan doesn't have a state insect.

Thanks Dave. It's interesting seeing your own cartoons getting better, isn't it?

Thanks for the trivia -- I had no idea! That would make Ladybug Santa Massachusetts's state holiday mascot.

Michigan's unofficial state insect? Mosquito.

“Anizo 100% Reality Mind.” What this means, I have no idea. A friend found it living in a vending machine on the street in China and brought it back to Boston for me. The one-inch tall yellow plastic guy (I think it’s a he) has a smile, a blue tear, a pair of hand holes, a growth atop his head pierced clean through, and, on his backside, a man getting squeezed between two lines that I hope do not represent butt cheeks.

Illustration Friday: Hide

Maurice’s cunning helped him evade that hungry field sparrow, and in doing so he discovered something new: his special affinity for flowers. He decided to go for it. He attained his Master’s Degree in floral arrangement from Chicago School of Flower Design. Today Maurice owns and manages a successful retail floral operation behind the shed there, to the left of the plastic green leprechaun. This is my drawing for the Illustration Friday ( IF website ) assignment, this time to illustrate "Hide". Click it for a bigger version.
