I can’t stop making collages!

This one’s about four friends who are planning on taking over the world, for nefarious purposes. Their plans include: making everyone bake them cupcakes every day, drinking up all the tea, and forcing people to listen to Randy Newman all the time. This is the scene where they’re walking down the street in slow motion.

How: Collage and pencil on paper, colored in Photoshop, with little graphic bits added too.

The collaging just did not stop this weekend. Gab and I worked on some more cutting and pasting yesterday evening.

And here’s Gab’s:

Oh what a lovely Saturday! It involved some collaging. I cut up some lady-type magazines and got a little crafty. So these three girls arrive to a party and they’re kind of nervous and they’re about to say hi to the hostess and then get their first cocktails of the evening. But first, they’re greeted by a little lamp deer and a flying pink hotdog. It’s gonna be a good party!

I hope the answer is four. Here are four turtles.

I made this by doodling with pencil on paper, then sketching in Illustrator, then coloring in Photoshop. I can’t stop thinking about the turtle and his black hole! Why doesn’t he get sucked in? Clearly, because the black hole has a crush on him.

She should have stopped after the third cone. Lesson learned?
