"RICHNESS AND FLAVOR FROM THE HIGHLANDS AND THE ISLANDS
Only in the Scottish Islands and Highlands where the water is as soft as rain—where peat-smoke flavors the malt, does whisky develop this rich golden flavor... and from the Lowlands comes whisky with the delicate lightness to balance it. This is the blend that makes White Horse superb. Have you tried White Horse?

Pen, watercolor, black & white charcoal pencil.

Another featured piece from the Spooky Pants book.

A man in a sweater stands with his hands on his hips looking out of a large window with the curtains open. Things aren’t looking good outside, reader. A massive winged demon is emerging from the clouds as dozens of little ghosts and bone demons rip through the sky. On the ground below we see townsfolk running through the grass. Our man in the window is in no mood for this. He lets us know, “Oh, I am in no mood for this.” His dog looks out the window as well, wagging its tail. 

Fantasia (1940) inspired drawing. I think I could’ve gone a little heavier with the chaos outside but we’ll try again with fresh drawings this October. I like how the clouds turned out. Trying to balance my sloppy lines with more detail can be tricky but I think we achieved a good result.

"do exactly what all the rest of us do who have a five-foot rattlesnake in the freezer" #gourmetmagazine september 1954
marinated rattlesnake recipe from the september 1954 issue of gourmet magazine

"Q. As an old subscriber I am calling for help. What to do with a freshly killed five-foot rattlesnake, now in the freezer.
MR. JAMES G. COYLE
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

A. Why, you do exactly what all the rest of us do who have a five-foot rattlesnake in the freezer!

Marinated Rattlesnake

Remove the head, and skin a rattlesnake. Clean, cut the meat into 2-inch pieces, and marinate the pieces for 3 hours in the juice of sour oranges or in the juice of sweet oranges acidulated with lemon juice, 1 teaspoon peppercorns, and a dash of nutmeg.
Drain the snake meat and wipe the pieces dry. Sprinkle with salt, dip in beaten egg, and roll in fine bread crumbs.
Sauté the rattlesnake in hot butter until the pieces are golden brown."

I always thought the figure was screaming, but they are blocking out the screams of the world. This perspective has strangely brought me hope though because sometimes resilience isn’t fixing the world. It’s protecting enough of yourself to keep standing in it. Keep standing friends. Good night.
