"W U M P" compilation by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

The sound of a heavy creature landing on the roof. (It certainly wasn't a tree branch...) Did it just drop past the window onto the grass in the backyard? I think I'll leave the doors and windows unlocked and take a nap on the couch... Why not?

Here's some artz!

don't make me.png

[Liner pen and gel pen on notebook page with digital embellishments and color.] Hey peeps! My name is Richard F. Yates, and what I'm presenting here is an image taken directly from my notebooks. I don't know why I choose to make and share art like this, but it's where I'm at right now. I just feel like art should be fun, should be a chill out and a have fun event. This is me chillin' out and drawing in my little book. Why share it? Why not? I can... So I DO! Yeah... ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

[Liner pen and crayon on notebook page with digital embellishments and color.] Looks like a coyote howling away from the moon, to me.
