A new watercolor – "Why do Robotic Octopuses Cook?"

[16 Feb 2009 | By | No Comment | 1,537 views ]

I don’t know about you, but when I want to celebrate something, I cook! In a perfect combination of things both robotic and aquatic, I give you the Chef.

PS: The Anti-Valentines Votes are being tabulated… Stay tuned! And I was Valentine’s guest artist for fave webcomic Sluggy Freelance on Saturday, check it out… Oh, one more thing – if you missed it, check out the auction for the Squidee watercolor – All proceeds go to aid in the Australian bushfire relief effort.
