Memories

This week's Illustration Friday theme was "Memories." I found this theme to be very difficult to find a subject for. I could easily have gone the cat route again, but I wanted to do something different and play around with the Paint Shop textures. So I drew a foggy memory of a home movie my friends and I made during high school one afternoon at City Park. Something about Killer...Sleeping Bags? Worms? from Outer Space. I think I pinched a nerve trying to come up with this one.

This was both cute and funny. I love it. It might have been hard for you, but you pressed through it and did your thing. Awesome work!

This is hilarious; you must have had really neat friends. Hope you still get to do stuff like this.

No offense, but, I don't really get it.

Thanks. Everyone should make their own cheap horror/sci fi movie once in while.

Auntfan, you get your free props where you can find them. A sleeping bag was the closest thing to a spaceworm we could find. ;)

I just think the texture of the "sleeping bags" looks sooo cool! Nice work.

Ok, I get it now. I didn't realize this was a movie (sort of). I get the sleeping bag as props thing now.
