Snoozing Yams, Dueling lobsters, Puppet shows and Long Legs

Please enjoy these tuesday afternoon sneaky peeks of a fresh batch of new paintings made this week....
I know what you're thinking: "what the FRACK is that first one?"
Answer: that, my friends, is what happens to a yam, when it's left unattended in a hanging basket. True story. Except for the lady sticking out. That only happens at our house.
In case you can't tell, I'm working hard to make my own deadline for getting the 2009 Calendar to the printer's! Look for it in late september/early October!! An enormous Thank you to all the stores who have already pre-ordered, and forced me to get my butt in gear and finish these (in a higher quantity than last year)! Your support is unprecidented and outlandish, and allows me to rot tubers in a basket for a living. Seriously....bless you.
