danielles portrait, originally uploaded by nuwanda181.

of me. I love it! I look like a cold boston bitch. She would like to disclaim, she was not entirely sober during the making of this drawing. And my hair is not really that blonde.

This illustration accompany's kevin's really funny kids poem titled "Chimp Removal." The text will be laid out on the paper the monkey is holding because at the end of it, because the poem asks you to sign on the dotted line:

Chimp Removal

If your house is full of bad chimpanzees,

If they lounge on your couches and eat all your peas,

If they climb up your draperies as if they were trees,

My chimp chimes will help you to oust them with ease.

My chimes sound like handfuls of jingling keys,

But when chimpanzees hear them, they stop still and freeze,

They'll follow me out, just as quick as you please,

And I'll take them to live with my Great Aunt Louise.

So if you've had your fill of those bad chimpanzees,

If they muddy your carpet and scratch your CD's,

If they've given your family a bad case of fleas,

My chimp chimes will answer your desperate pleas.

And if they smudge up your windows with smears of cream cheese,

If they turn up the heat to one hundred degrees,

If they use your dad's mustache just like a trapeze,

Just sign this agreement, I'll bill you the fees....

I'm currently working on illustrating a book of children's poetry my friend Kevin wrote with his sister, it's been a really fun project. This illustration accompanies the poem titled, "Molly McBing, Best on the Swing." We have a designer who will be laying out the book but here is the poem in plain text:

MOLLY McBING, BEST ON THE SWING

There once was a girl named Molly McBing

And she was an absolute ace on the swing

She’d get so high she’d look down on the trees

With hardly ever a bend in her knees

Then do triple summersault dismounts with ease

Molly McBing

Ace on the swing

So Molly perfected her swinging all day

Doing flips and twists in every possible way

When people saw her they were prompted to say

Molly McBing

Best on the swing

One day Molly decided to try something new

A swing trick that utterly no one could do

Her pulse started racing her confidence grew

Molly McBing

Ace on the swing

She started her swing with a run and a hop

Then she swung so high she just couldn’t stop

She kept on going right over the top

Molly McBing

Went over the swing

When the swing came around and the dust had cleared

What happened was worse than anyone had feared

Molly McBing had dissapeared

Molly McBing

Gone from the swing?

All that was found was Molly’s left shoe

Where she had gone nobody knew

And I kid you not this story is true

Molly McBing

Dissapeared from the swing

So if you’re thinking of trying this move on the swing

Remember what happened to Molly McBing
