Illustrate

I forget music sometimes. Even really really good music.
(Just rediscovered Harlem Shakes tonight, forgot that they're pretty much the best.)
And "Corazon" by Bishop Allen. Forgot that little song too.
I decided that if I could, I would choose "Corazon" to animate/illustrate.
Its just such a perfect narrative.
But as it turns out...drawing pianos is hard. Especially a piano so full of personality like Corazon.

Never tire of them


Books this time.
I have one postcard remaining...
Maybe I'll do movies next or plays.

The palace, not the butler.

I had to wait to post this til the recipient received it. Lest I ruin the surprise of yet another unsolicited rebus.
These are bands. Four of them. No Beatles.

The last collection of rebuses I put up was perhaps my favorite post ever. (Decision made: It is) I still draw them from time to time and until I get rid of the leftover postcards from my trip to Europe, I'll probably still be sending them out.

Tobacco Skin

Robots, song lyrics. Stagnant. This blog will become a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
But still, that's a robot with a guitar wearing a scarf.
If it weren't winter, he would actually be saying this:
"What? This? Oh, well when I brought this guitar over here, displayed prominently on my back, I didn't have any intentions of playing it. Weird that you would ask me about it. But sure, let me remove my ironic scarf and I'll play a Dashboard song or two. And then I'll let you feel the calluses on my finger tips."

He sings








He's been known to throw out some Jim Croce tunes as well.

For Lisa

I think they really dropped the ball on what could have been some pretty epic Ferngully sequels. Just sayin'

Nope. No Beatles.

So these are all bands. Some are a stretch, like the Beach Boys for instance, but my intentions were good.
Normally I send Brigham a rebus or two scrawled on a postcard from a recent trip (Temecula for instance) but I realized Brigham has never asked me to do this, so instead of an unsolicited rebus to Brigham I'll give an unsolicited rebus to everyone.

I would love to know if anyone can name all 20. I think it could be a challenge.
