The Night of the Goobla Snake Sacrifice

Horton Hatches the Egg

This is a drawing I did based on the Dr. Seuss book, "Horton Hatches the Egg."

The book concerns Horton (an elephant) convinced by an irresponsible bird named Mayzie into sitting on her egg while she takes a break--which proves to last for months. Of course, the absurd sight of an elephant sitting atop a tree makes quite a scene.

Horton is laughed at by his jungle friends, exposed to the elements, captured by hunters, forced to endure a terrible sea voyage, and finally placed in a travelling circus. All through the ordeal Horton repeats this refrain:

I meant what I said, and I said what I meant:
An elephant's faithful one hundred percent.

To find out what happens, check out the book or the Looney Tunes version directed by Bob Clampett.

Page Full O'Monkeys

Some monkeys from a page in the sketchbook. Everyone has a favorite animal... well if you couldn't guess, mine is monkeys.

Guh!

I was having some troubles with the yellow paint and needed it to dry... did this stupid drawing in the meantime.
