Description Urgh, this took much longer than I first thought it would. Drawing the girl took like, an hour. Drawing the background took like, a day. It was tedious, but at least it was an experience.

Anyhow, thanks to my lack of foresight, you won't have any idea what she's doing until you read the description. You know how when it rains, all the local earthworms like to come out and scatter their wriggling bodies across the pavement?

Well, this girl didn't.
And now she's scraping worm pulp off the bottom of her galoshes.

Sadly I spent a lot of time on a very unexciting picture. Well, it's not the first time it's happened.

That a very good drawing, and it's not over sexualized!

Wait you made this in flash?
As in adobe flash?
If so, could you do a tutorial on how you make these drawings so nice, mine often look like ragged sharp bones... XD

lol I was expecting that to stuff to be waterlogged gum that was all over the sidewalk and since it got moist again it got sticky and got stuck on her boots... but worm pulp is way funnier

At the very least she wore boots. And at least they were only worms. Having a slug slip between your bare toes is very unpleasant. Still, I don't envy her lack of foresight.

I'm revisiting your gallery for the hundredth time and your artwork never loses its shine. It's always been wildly entertaining. It's wonderful to see how much you've progressed over the years. You've been a huge inspiration to me creatively. I always love to see your newest work!

Aw, thanks!

I am sometimes tempted to hide my earlier works (which embarrass me with its quality), but it's comments like this that make me glad I didn't.

dont hide your old works, they are just as awesome as all your other ones! no one else can compete on deviantART in my opinion, even if your drawings arent detailed to the dot on some, they still have alot of humour and something that just makes you go "HA HA THATS WIERD HA HA!"

Worm #1: At last! We've fled our flooding home!
Worm #2: *gasps* A FOOT!
Worm #1: I know, right? If the exit wasn't a foot away, we would be dead now.
Worm #2: No, GALOSHES FOOT!
Both: Ahhh!!
Girl: Ewww....

-_-; Here, not only do we have worms... We've also got slugs, centepedes, snails, and scorpions (only in summer and they're itsy-bitsy, so it doesn't really matter). TAT None of which are very fun to step on... *shudder* Bleurgh...

I thought this was another one of your 'draw on top of other pictures' pictures. As wonky as the perspective may be.

it's the unidentifiable, (might be gum?), stuff that sticks to the tile and makes that crunchy ripping noise at first, but then picks up everything in the carpet so you slide a little when you step back onto tile that is annoying.

But it did make me cry. I'M PATHETIC
