Illustration Friday – "Instinct"

[20 Feb 2009 | By | 20 Comments | 2,105 views ]

My plan was to have another in the watercolor robots series for you here today, but I didn’t have time to draw today. So I present to you the commissioned graphic for a t-shirt I just finished, instead. Don’t blame the giant space squid when he has you for dinner, he’s just acting on Instinct!

PS: Anti-Vday Winners HERE (Overall), HERE (Art), and Vote for People’s Choice HERE.
