warm up: Shell Game

I took a break at the end of last week from posting my warm-ups, but I'm back, baybee! Newlywed Tim Hamilton chose today's topic of the old "shell game" and this was the first thing to pop in my head.


Please view this in tandem with my earlier Life Aquatic piece to get the full-on Mermaid experience, and witness how I'm apparently getting a head start on my dirty old man years.

The Life Aquatic: Mermaid

Today was my turn to choose the topic over at the DrawBridge blog, and I went with The Life Aquatic. While it is my favorite Wes Andersen film , I did not necessarily mean the movie, but rather I dig the poetic-sounding way of describing life in the water.



And what lives in the water and is more fun to draw than a mermaid? Nothing, that's what. Enjoy, please.
