Description I did this because I am...ready for spring. It was warm for half of February, and we had some snow today. I'm ready to get started with the nice weather. This picture also helped to eat up a long 12-hour shift at work - I had two of them back-to-back, and the art sure helped the time to go by. My friend at work couldn't believe how quickly this was done, but it was just a simple marker piece.Β 

Marge and Lois are the property of Matt Groening and Seth MacFarlane respectively.

I'm sorry to learn that Old Man Winter is now hitting the east and northeast with snow and ice.Β  Spring, it seems, has come early here in SoCal.Β  It's warming up here, plus the heavy rains have finally passed on.Β  Still, the sandals seem appropriate for both Marge and Lois as things are warming up.Β  All the ladies need now are shorts and skimpy shirts.Β  Good marker work.Β Β Β Β  Β

Thanks! That was one of those sketch marker pads - I kind of like that texture I get from them, but sometimes I need to help it out with a bit of airbrush. I also like the pads because they are 8 X 10 and fit well on to my scannerΒ images-na.ssl-images-amazon.co…

I may just give those sketch marker pads a try, if for nothing else than they fit into the average scanner.Β  I have to slice off a 1/2 inch from the edge of my Bristol board before I can scan the pic into my computer.

I have to do the same; I just trim it to 8 1/2 X 11 on the paper cutter.

As do I.Β  I have an excellent paper cutter which I have used for over 7 years.

Same here...Nan does a lot of crafts, so we use it quite often.

It must really be nice to have a wife who does crafts.Β  How I wish I could meet a woman like that.

She's pretty handy like that; she helped me with that birthday card with the 57 Chevy on it. She is also involved with selling stamping products.

You're one lucky man.Β  I have yet to meet a talented lady like that.

She's one of those people who is so humble that they don't think they have any talents.

I too try to show my humility.Β  Many times when a DA fan of mine comments on how great my artwork is, I always remind him or her that there are many other DA artists who have greater talent and skill than I do.Β  And that's the truth.Β  A great many DA artists are more talented than I am. Β But still, you're a very lucky man to have a woman with so many stellar qualities for a wife.

Oh, I'm that same way - there are bunches of 20 year old kids that could kick my butt any time of the week.

The same holds true for me as well.Β  Still, we enjoy each other's art and we both have our fanbase.Β  And for me, that's enough.

The sandals that marge is wearing I wanna see them on velma feet. I wanna see velma in tight skinny jeans while she's wearing those sandals.

::chuckles:: I wish it were warm enough to wear them here; it's colder than the dickens outside. Yeah, I did kind of perfect that; I've seen so many people draw that part of the body wrong.

This is actually normal weather for here; our warm February was unusual.
