I'm a big fan of Hillsong music. One song I have been listening to is "Captain.". I was inspired to create art based on the song and heavily influenced by the video. Okay, to be honest, I pulled this totally from the video. I kind of wish I hadn't seen it, Then I would have a unique take on the song. That said, the video is beautifully done, and I just couldn't resist creating some fun moody fan art that paid homage to a great song and video.
You wouldn't know it to look at him, but Kyle is a vegan.
Claudine was the Wesson's prize winning laying hen. She had won the blue ribbon five years running at the state fair. Over the years she had become a bit cocky. If you visited the Wesson's farm, you were sure to see Claudine strutting around ruling the roost. Then one night Claudine up and disappeared. The Wesson's wasted no time in setting up a search party. The 4H club offered a handsome reward. Some townsfolk suspected Clem, the Wesson's rooster who had suddenly taken charge in the chicken coop. A few days after Claudine's disappearance there was a break in the case. A neighbor found Claudine across the street from the Wesson's farm, lifeless. Folks around those parts say if you visit the Wesson's farm, on the anniversary of Claudine's disappearance you might just see her ghost crossing the street. For the town's folk, this mystery has remained unsolved, to this day they are still asking "Why did the chicken cross the road?".
In 1853 Dr. Remus Van Shelton was experimenting with a formula that would turn him invisible. He worked tirelessly to come upon the right formula. During this process, he invented many products we now enjoy like colorless tape, the shoe horn, and the elastic waistband. The closest he ever got to the formula that would turn him invisible was getting his derby to float several inches above his head. Many a person looking over a tall hedge thought they had seen an invisible man. Consequently, Dr. Remus was never able to catch his hat. His derby floated several inches above him for the rest of his life. They say if you visit Dr. Shelton's grave late at night you will see his old weathered derby floating above his tombstone.
Created from a failed lab experiment, Billy Frofindofiler didn't notice his prune juice was tainted by a tiny drop from the beaker of his super secret bug formula Larva X. The Larva X fused with Billy's DNA and turned him into a giant bug.
There have been several sightings of Billy buzzing around picnics and in the evening street lights. Authorities warn not to leave your porch light on in the evening, or Billy might just pay you a visit.
Miss Mantis is the school librarian and she likes it quite. You can forget about computers when you enter her library. Miss Mantis prefers card catalogs, micro-phish and the dewy decimal system. Don't you dare put a book back in the wrong place or forget to pay your library fine. Rumor has it she'll eat your brain.
Part gorilla, part divers helmet, part fishbowl, CRAG-QUARIUM is weirder than he is scary. He's best known for his work as the slow lumbering monster in silent movies. Once the talkies became popular, he found himself unemployeed. Leaving the glitz and glam of Hollywood Crag-Quarium returned two years later as a mime instructor. In the early 60's he reinvented himself yet again as a champion clogger which led to a reoccurring role on He-Haw. Now semi-retired Crag-Quarium has appeared on Dancing with the stars and is a fixture at comic and sci-fi conventions.
Derrick is the balloon you got at the theme park or carnival that kept trying his best to get away. If he did escape your clutches, because you were distracted by cotton candy, he would laugh his evil helium balloon cackle all the way into the stratosphere.
If Derrick were not able to get away because your mom tied him to your wrist, he would aggravate your dad by bobbing up and down in the rearview mirror all the way home. His favorite prank was silently floating into your room at night when your eyes had adjusted to the dark just enough to see something moving. Gripped by sheer terror, you would pass out till morning. The next day Derrick was lying on the floor lifeless.
Evil balloons have a short life span.
Back in the late 70's Star Wars was a comic strip in my local newspaper. It wasn't run in the paper for long. Recently I did a little research and found out these comic went from the late 70's into the 80's and contained several different stories including Han Solo at Star's End. I used to own a pretty large collection of Sunday Funnies. from mid to late 70’s through the 80’s. The image below is from my Sunday Comics collection.
