Up to Something - Gator Days
Up to Something - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 It's a pleasant day at kindergarten. Ember is chatting with Bolero and Grace about raisins and Teacher seems to be straightening up some things. He's carrying a box of salt. Why? I don't know. The teachers in this city are weird. Don't question it. Along the wall is a banner that has "THE ALPHABET" and "NUMBERS" written across it several times. The actual words, not the alphabet and numbers. Someone was yelled at over this. Teacher (thinking): Ember has been behaving all day. Ember: RAISINS! Panel 2 Teacher narrows his eyes and watches the situation carefully. Teacher (thinking): She's up to something. Teacher doesn't want Ember to know that he's onto her and plans to continue acting as if he hasn't noticed anything. Panel 3 Bolero begins to speak but Ember can't pay attention because she's distracted by Teacher. She looks up at him and carefully considers the situation. Ember (thinking): TEACHER HASN'T BEEN UPSET WITH ME TODAY. Panel 4 Ember narrows her eyes and has a realization. Ember (thinking): HE'S UP TO SOMETHING. Ember continues to do nothing so that Teacher will not suspect that she's onto him.

I saw an old witch-hare this night
And she cocked a lissome ear,
And she eyed the moon so bright'

NIGHTMARE IN RED (1981)
Acrylic Over Pastels - 25 ½” x 20”

Tales from the Nightside is a collection of macabre stories by Charles L. Grant. I accepted a commission to do the cover art in the gloomy winter of 1980-81. 1/4
Angled view down on a horror montage set upon a red tinted, textured skull topped by a trio of rose blooms. Low in the immediate foreground one orbital reflects the glint of light on an eyeball. Nested low on the forehead a bat opens its maw wide in a scream. Set to the side is a tile with the number 3 and a creeping spider. Opposite rests a small stack of coins, the topmost decorated with a triangle. Smoke wafts out of a crack at the top back of the skull while tendrils of roots grow off the opposite side.

TRICK OR TREAT (2010)
Oil

Beware, kiddos...you never know who is going to answer the door...
1/2
A bare-chested figure with jaundiced face and thinning hair steps out to offer a Halloween surprise. His head is cartoonishly bulbous with enormous ears set too far back on his skull. He presents as a frightening clown stripped of paint. His face tapers from high, hollow cheeks to pointed chin—jaw barely containing the crescent of wide upturned lips. His bulging eyes, dotted to pinpricks, are disturbingly unfocused as some psychotic fantasy plays out in his mind. With fingers slender and taloned, he offers an oversized lollipop pinched delicately at the stem. A black spider with shiny red abdomen is set in the spiral of amber candy proffered.

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Halloween Costume Plans - Gator Days
Halloween Costume Plans - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 August and Gustopher are out shopping when they notices a Halloween display. Gustopher is instantly excited about Halloween coming up. Gustopher: DAD! Halloween is coming! August: It is! Panel 2 August has been planning to make this year more exciting. August: Since your taco costume was cheap last year, I think we should go big this time! What do you want to be? Panel 3 Gustopher contemplates the choices with his hands to his side. Unrelated, but he's wearing his Sweater that says Sweater. It's a spin off of the Shirt Shirts but they haven't been quite as popular. People say that the Clothing Clothing company has sold out and they're just in it for the money. Anyway, various ideas swirl around Gustopher's head. Including Vampire, Super hero, ghost, copyright infringement, space marine, lamp, and banana. Two names in the corner are slight obscured. They seem to say Adam Tots and Hollering Elk. Could be something else. I guess we'll never know. Panel 4 After some careful considering, Gustopher knows exactly what he wants to be. Gustopher: I wanna be a taco again! August: Really? Are you sure? Gustopher: TACO! TACO! TACO!

Happy #BiVisibilityDay to all who celebrate, including me! 👋 I've been bi for, well, a very long time. No, it doesn't mean that I'm attracted to everyone—just that there's the potential for me to be attracted (romantically/sexually) to those of either gender.

Yesterday we visited Green Mountain Falls, CO to visit the kinetic sculpture Off the Beaten Path by Patrick Shearn. I wasn’t ready for just how dynamic it was even in the slightest breeze. Reminds me of a murmuration of starlings. Incredible artwork. It’ll only be up through October 19th.

Panel 1: A shirtless man with a large shark bite sits calmly on a chair, hands folded, and declares: “I died fighting a shark.” Panel 2: Next to him, a rugged hunter with a grey beard and cap sits with hole in his head. He explains, “I died hunting with friends.” Panel 3: A man with visible traces of car tires sits on a chair, bones jutting out from a car accident. He mutters, “I died crossing the street.” Panel 4: A simple ghost draped in a white sheet sits next to him. It confesses, “I died changing the bed sheets.” The joke suggests that the pop-culture image of ghosts covered in white sheets comes from people who met their end while struggling with linens.

Doesn’t matter how many great horror movies get made, doesn’t matter how many times they’ve saved the theatrical movie business since Covid…the genre still can’t get any respect. The “it’s not a horror movie” crowd is always there. This includes filmmakers who can’t admit they made a horror movie.

The reason Sinners is so good is that it’s not a horror movie. It is a film about the Black experience, and the immigrant experience in America. It tells the story of marginalized peoples and uses vampires as allegory to tell that story. It is SO much more than a “vampire movie.”

Lake Pirates - Gator Days
Lake Pirates - Gator Days Panel 1 Gustopher and August have gone to the lake for a swim. Gustopher lazily floating around in an inner tube while August is enjoying how the cool water feels on a warm summer day. Gustopher does bring up one concern. Gustopher: Are there pirates at this lake? August: No pirates. Panel 2 Gustopher starts to carefully look around for places that pirates might be hidden. He has put a lot of thought into potential pirate hiding locations. Have you considered all the places where pirates might be hiding? They could be under the bed. I personally check the door multiple times a night to make sure it's locked so pirates can't get in. I might have an anxiety problem. Anyway, August is quick to squash any worries of pirates so the two of them can fully enjoy their time at the water. Gustopher: Are you sure? They could be hiding in the trees. August: You're safe. There are no pirates. Panel 3 Gustopher continues to float around as August takes in all the beautiful nature surrounding them. He feels confident that Gustopher won't worry about pirates any more. Panel 4 Gustopher dramatically flings his arms into an air and states his displeasure. Gustopher: THIS PLACE NEEDS PIRATES! It is at this point that August realizes that pirates would have been a positive, not a negative.
