don't you hate it when you eat like a english muffin but you toasted a part of it too much so when you swallow it, it feels like it cuts your throat and you're like, "AUGH! MY THROAT!"
that's why they keep those english muffins in the box AND wrap them in the plastic. sharp edges. wouldn't want kids to cut themselves on it.

Very nice gallery you got here, you've got a cool style kinda reminds me of Shaun Tan's illustrative work! Ever heard of him? Illustrates children's books and stuff!

you have such a unique style... very rarely can someone capture the art of simplistic drawings like this and make them look so.. "professional" i guess...
looks great, i really dig it. keep up the good work

I love yout simple drawing and watercolour style. All your paintings seem very expressive, with subject and setting. The light colours contrasted with dark symbolism is really great. You should read Tim Burtons 'The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy'-I think you would like it.
I do not say this becaus your similarity to his style should be deviated from, but because I think you would have something in common with him.
Both yours and Mellon's work reminds me of Tim Burton's. but that is not a bad thing. Many people today think that a similar style between two artists means one is 'ripping off the other', but if one artist has a style and makes many wonderful things with that style, are they not all good? Then why not several artists with a common bond?
And so I say keep making these wonderful pieces, and I will continue to enjoy them. Thank you for sharing.
