We watched Cocteau’s “Beauty and the Beast” the other night, and of course the Beast is the most memorable part. Cocteau reportedly undermined his own “happy ending” on purpose, to point this up! What a beautiful and flawed movie. I guess this sort of fits in with my monster sketches?
We find ourselves looking back

Had some bad luck silkscreening today. Looks like our 5 year old bucket of Ulano QTX has finally bit the dust.
Almost forgot to mention the nice shout-out Elo and I got from Sarah McIntyre today!

Yesterday Eleanor and I celebrated “Velenxmas!” What’s that, you ask? It’s a holiday combining Valentine’s day, Eleanor’s birthday, and Christmas. It is celebrated only on years that your girlfriend Eleanor spends nearly a month away in Arizona over the holidays and then you’re both too busy to give each other presents for another month. Traditionally, one goes out for sushi and a beer before presents are exchanged.
It’s one of the more obscure holidays, I think maybe it’s Babylonian in origin.
Hey, Sergio Aragonés did a sketch with my pen in my sketchbook! This is not it:
He thought the pen was inadequate, but is a very funny and charming gentleman nonetheless. Catch some of his UGA lecture here.

Hey, Sergio Aragonés is doing a lecture at UGA tomorrow!
Hi to all the people who came by from Kate Beaton’s blog! And if you haven’t seen her comics, check ’em out. I’m a sucker for gossipy history, for reals. I’d have actually learned something in grade school history class if they’d told us the juicy bits.
More monsters next week!
