Artist's Comments

"If looks could kill, they probably will...."

i was listening to a lot of old Peter Gabriel the other day. for some reason his music turns my head into a playground.

anyway, i started sketching a bunch of random stuff as a means of pre-empting artist's block while working on real important things. and the sketches grew into this, bit by bit. i was pleasantly surprised to find that Gogo and baboons mix harmoniously, though i couldn't say why.

some days you just don't have time to be cold and miserable. some days you just break out the monkey and jungle garb and do what comes naturally. clearly, this mentality is not universal.

I wish my random scribbles would result in such an amazing picture.
I dig the baboon. You really did an outstanding job with that.
I also love your choice of colors and how the attention is directed at Gogo immediately. However the background-characters look great as well. Not too detailed, but still detailed enough to let them look "alive".
And the snow-effect is great as well. May I ask you how you did that? :D

reall like the color in this. You color in a cell shaded style right? (dont know the right term) do you use a blur filter at all after your done tone-ing the sections so it dosnt appear as sharp? (curious) regardless I always like the way you color. I like to color but mostly dont have the patience for it. lol. so yay looks cool and funny idea XD Gogo is crazy and awesome.

If you can't be a good example, try to be a horrible warning.

Spel zonder grenzen?

I LOVE Gogo in this one! Prepare yourself for a painted version of it.

But not after I'm done making my Buckets plushie.
