July Journal Doodles

I have this journal (it's not a diary!) that contains calendar pages at the beginning of every month. I make my own calendars at home and have no need for the one in the journal, so I fill up each day's box with a doodle.

Enjoy these July doodles!

Quite often people ask me why all of the characters I draw tend to look pissed off and angry. Can you blame them? Look at the state of the world! The biggest and most vocal opponent of Global Warming just reversed his stance and admitted that it's real, the area in which I live is suffering from the worst drought in recorded history, the antics of the two dimbulb stars of the Twilight movies gets more attention and media coverage than how health care reform will affect us all, and it's beginning to look like the hot button issue of gay marriage is going to be decided in the learned halls of a farkakte chicken restaurant.

Of course they look pissed off!

Juvenile July

I've got this daily journal (it's not a diary!) that contains calendar pages at the beginning of every month. Since I do the exact same thing every single day of my life, I have little use for the calendar pages, so I've been filling each day's square with a doodle.

Here are the calendar pages for July. The August pages were full of primal drawings dripping with barely pent-up rage. These doodles don't seem particularly angry, just weird.

Uncle Sam looks a bit beaten up there on July 4th, reflecting the state of our beleaguered country. That's supposed to be Clint Eastwood on the 13th, drawn from memory. I was watching the first season of the Partridge Family on DVD in July, if you can believe such a thing, so that's a not-very-good likeness of Danny Partridge on the 17th, and his manager Reuben Kinkaid on the 21st.
