Description
This was a doodle I drew in a derranged state staying at a friend's sharehouse. I was in a room, with a mattress as a bed, and I didn't know if the owner of said mattress was going to return at some stage through the night. I tried to imagine the horror of coming home and finding a strange boy in my beloved bed..It was also incredibly hot, but I couldn't go pantsless due to my Goldilocks-style paranoia.
Needless to say I could not allow myself to sleep.
And so I just lay there...with the light on...right on the very edge of the mattress. I figured I might as well draw to occupy myself over the next four hours before we had to awake, and so I scavenged for some paper and a half-working blue pen and made this.
I have an obsession with birds and hats, it seems

Thankyou! And the paper you see is actually a texture applied in PS, it was originally drawn on plain paper but I thought a texture would suit it more

How the hell did you manage that amount of awesomeness with a 'half-working blue pen'! Immensely cool and detailed and I love the simplicity of tone too ^_^
What a way to spend your night

Haha, desperation maybe? I was one step away from drawing it in my own blood if I couldn't find anything. So glad you like it!

i think it was a nice regal quality to it....which is just ducky

Thanks man! Lol, ducky. I am loving duck-esque heads right now. I don't know where it came from. The uni I go to has an abundance of ducks..but I've been there for years and they're also unexpectedly aggressive. Lol.

Again, intense love for the random and bizarre that you produce on a regular basis.

You are a sick and demented man, clearly, and I sympathize. I hate sleeping at other people's houses. *shudder*

'goldilocks - style paranoia' 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, it so was. Nobody considers Goldilocks' perspective.. I guess because she's an obnoxious intruder...but still!

a very interesting piece, but deleriousness sometimes brings out the best in us ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, most often the case in my experience. For all these years at uni I've never started writing an essay before 10pm the night before. I shudder just thinking of that scenario again, lol.

and do like birds and hats too
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The bear never came home... and I didn't even eat any of his porridge. I used his paper but not his porridge. Birds of hats rule!

ahh awesome! what a terrible situation to find yourself in. its like being in hospital and knowing a nurse could work in any second of the night and check your blood pressure etc! every person that walked past made me nervous!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah that would be death! ..maybe not the best phrase to use about a hospital scenario but you know what I mean. Glad you like this dude

Dare I say "I'm glad you were sleepless"....I don't mean that...really!
but I really love the Victorianess of this...It has also a touch of Jane Austen's "Georgian"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes haha, very Jane Austen. But more exciting I hope. In hindisght I'm glad I was sleepless too, I mean it had little to no long-term effects, I should just do it more often
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh definitely more exciting I find late at night...and early in the morning are my best times....there is nobody else around to distract you
