My friends and I love watching Drunk History on www.funnyordie.com and in case you're wondering what that is, I'll fill you in. The premise is pretty simple: people get ridiculously drunk and then tell stories from American history. The stories are usually pretty hilarious due to how drunk the person telling the story is and also the absurdity of the story. There's a couple episodes on Benjamin Franklin, who is played by Jack Black. I decided to draw Ben for my friend because he always toasts Ben Franklin, which is in reference to one of the stories, and I wanted him to have some kind of picture on his wall to toast. I am starting to attempt to incorporate type into my drawings but I think it'll be some time until I'm happy with it.

Return of The Scraps
Woody Allen
After some other bigger illustrations I had more scrap paper laying around again, so I've just decided that all scrap paper from now on will be used for these little head studies. I like doing them and it's fun to sort of experiment here and there with them and see how it affects my other work. Who knows how long it'll continue but it'd be cool to have a gigantic stack of them years from now, and plus it's a good way to use the extra paper instead of throwing it out.
