What do you want on your Tombstone?

I draw'd on an old pizza box yesterday.

I like the way this turned out. I've started saving old food boxes for drawing lately. The brown color and tooth of the cardboard just seem to add an extra level to the art. I can't claim this as my own idea though. I saw some drawings done on chipboard in the "Drink and Draw Social Club" book that Image put out a few years ago. The pencil, marker, and white charcoal on chipboard just seemed to have a really cool look.  Later I some of the character concept art for "Corpse Bride" by Carlos Grangel. Apparently his preferred medium is the insides of cereal boxes.
I think I'll keep drawing on these for a while, and I'll definitely revisit these characters. Right now I'm just warming up with Halloween themes and I'm getting ideas together for a new line of screen prints I hope to launch in the next few months. More on that later.
