You probably should have seen this coming.
Aren't cartoons great? It's easy to dismiss them as wacky children's entertainment, but as a medium, being able to use visual metaphors in this way rules. I'll tell you this: you're not getting a little angel and devil to represent a character's internal moral dilemma in stuff like The Sopranos. 2021-08-13 08:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post
Yes, I admit we're going to some weird places here.
We can debate all day and all night whether the little angel and devil that appear on a character's shoulder exist as a complete and separate character to the actual original character. So let's!
What's that you say? They don't 'exist'? Well I got news for you buster: neither does L...

It felt a little wrong going through the main family without covering Abe! But thankfully he arrives pretty early on, more or less fully formed.
There's a joke in "The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" that none of the characters in the shorts look how they're supposed to look, but honestly Abe is largely unchanged. He comes across as a ...

Here's a strange one! Recognisable but definitely not a household name. Did you even know his name was Jake? Pretty sure I didn't.
Jake shows up every now and again (how often does a plot require a barber? Not often) but in my opinion features most prominently in "22 Short Films About Springfield", where he attempts to fix Lisa's hair. In ...

Instead of doing my regular paid work, I decided to whip up a couple of promo images for the Patreon Infigured I’d show them to you lovely people before I put them out in the world!
Now we’re getting somewhere.
One of the main things about this project that interested me was delving into these one-off weirdos. Everyone knows Flanders or Hibbert or Moleman or even Hugh Jass but only the nerdiest of nerds are gonna know “Funeral Director”.
The guys only appears in one shot, and I had to make up like 75...

Just wanted to say thank you, you lovely people. We have a lot of ground to cover, but I’m feeling good about it.
Look forward to everyone’s favourite character*, coming on Monday!

I'm not gonna lie: I thought I was gonna have to break a rule to squeeze famously mute Maggie in this week.
As part of the sacred rules, I established th...

Tonight I’ve been working on what might be the very first exclusive A5 print for the Robo-Ninja-Agent-Force! Still some work to do, but let me know what you think!

Listen, I'm not gonna tell you Lisa is the main character of The Simpsons. But I do think she represents the often cynical perspective of the show as a whole.
Not as a character unto herself, of course! Lisa is bright and hopeful, never letting th...

My appreciation for Marge Simpson grows more with every year. She's not big or flashy, but she's such a unique sitcom character that I can't help but be in awe of how she's often used.
It takes a special alchemy to take what the show of...

In addition to my Simpsons illustrations, I’ll be posting early and exclusive pieces here for you wonderful Patrons! Here‘s a silly idea I had this morning.
(Don’t get mad at me if you like these movies. Love what you love. They’re not for me.)

Oh, so THAT's who the son from yesterday was!
It can be argued that Bart is the main character of The Simpsons. Look, I swear I'm not going to say that for every character, but it's true! Bart was certainly the gateway character for many of the t...

Well, of course Homer is first.
Many Simpsons fans will be familiar with the short "Good Night", as it is played in "The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" from season 7. That episode was where I (and presumably many fans) learned of the existen...

Let's get to business: I'm starting a project in which I draw every Simpsons character ever. I'm guessing that's why you're here! Thanks for taking an interest in what I admit is an insanely ambitious undertaking.
I've be...
