This weekend I decided it was going to be all for myself. I dont ever do this, so it was really nice. I thought i deserved it, since it was my birthday weekend, and the end of the semester!
(pre-warning: this comment will be long, but i think it will be worth it)
So, have you ever sat in the car, listened to music and created a whole new story and character and all that jazz? Well, thats what happened to me, so im going to give you the song links to each drawing. it makes them 10x better, I swear. I would find a song and have this whole animation-like thing go on in my head and i would, essentially, choose a scene and draw it. here we go:

Name: Sassafras (Frasie)
Gender: Female
Age: 17-18?
Species: Shpitz (shepherd-spitz mix)

1. (first page-looking scan): Listen to this:

So, yup. not quite sure why i made this character do this, but have you ever gotten up at 12:30-ish and danced around your room? I have. c;
Also, this brings in her stupidity and naive aspects on love and life, and how she is constantly falling into it. (yup. i needed a character like this.)
2.Kid Frasie!: listen to this: ..well, you know you listen to old music when you cant find a link... itunes had it... just, type in "Comin' Home to you" by Johnny
or, listen to this: (it has the same feel and idea to it.)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JErVP6xLZwg
**Swing Dancing!!! yes. had do add it.
Essentially, the idea is that she had this older brother-like guardian/protector. i would imagine he is her brother.. anywhoo, the parents are around, i just wont draw them! (like in charlie brown), i would think they would be the type that they dont have much money and have to work really hard for the small amount of money they recieve, thus, the older brother takes care of his little sis.
3. Small Frasie Again: listen to: i actually didn't listen to anything while making these. i sat in the almost pitch black (i had a flashlight) with nothing but the sound of my families deep breathing (they were asleep)
I hate having the sad sob story, but i really havent had any characters yet with it. So, some how or another the big brother-esque dude passes away. (car crash?) something that wasnt out of a dumb teenager action, or at least, not his fault. so, she is lost afraid, and this is the first of many losses of love for her.
4. Older Frasie: listen to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6fq.....eature=related
Fact: Frasie will fall for any guy who can dance. yup. the old brother could dance (see #2 for pic of dancing) so she holds it dearly to her heart. (plus, this whole character was made listening to music. haha)


whoo! we made it! so yup. that is my Frasie!
