Lars (of Work Bites "fame") sits on the counter at Ahab's while Ahab the Whale convinces him to do crazy things. @____________@ The whale makes ME do crazy things, too! Like draw weird pictures like this. Lars, Work Bites, etc, is property of myself (J. Stoncius) and TOKYOPOP, 2005. Done in painter classic and photoshop...yeah, there is a filter on this, and yeah, I shouldn't use photoshop filters (I have to go to artiste jail now), but it looked cool.

PLEASE DON'T SAY "THANK YOU", IT'S IMPLIED.... and everytime you say 'thank you' I'm forced to kill a kitten! Do you wanna be the one responsible for making me kill a kitten?!

No, because seriously? You have the best sense of humor in the history of ever, and so I love you. Such a serious sepia tone and heavy design aspect... and then? BAM! A fictious schizophrenia-inspired cartoon whale! A gut-buster, really.

"Well, in that case, he won't mind if I drink the rest of his wine, will he?"
I'm glad you like my sense of humor! I always worry that I'm the only person who finds me funny, which is never good because that leads to laughing at your own jokes at parties while the crowd inches farther and farther away. XD
This is sort of "extra art" from Work Bites in the sense that it's not from the comic, but I don't draw my characters enough outside my comic.
The whale is Ahab, the corporate mascot of Ahab's Coffee, which is where Lars happens to work. So, I guess it could be interpreted, too, as corporate America forcing people to do things they really don't want to do....in this case, sitting on a counter! (I don't think you're supposed to sit on counters when you work at a coffeeplace). But I really just drew this because I thought it would be funny and not really to make any sort of statement about corporate America. XDXD Or DID I?!?!?
Note also that Ahab the Whale sports pithair and five o' clock shadow, two of my most favorite things to put on cartoon whales.
When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
A Special Collection of photographs i found this month that still haunts my mind. Show them some love There are always some i can`t include due to space, i try to make the features under 50 deviations to give them better exposure
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

The most intelligent people will never say they're smart.
Be like a cat. Ignore those who annoy your.
Be like a dog. Love unconditionally.

Ahab's just so funny because Lars is such a foil to him... he's all grumpy and surly looking, and Ahab's so ridiculously and cartoonishly happy.
(Yes, I love weird things on fucked up animals too... so the pit hair was not seen before, but is duly noted now a heavily laughed at.)
