And I was born during the rush hour on whatever day Nov 27 1965 was. . . looks like a Saturday (how convienent) find your day at: http://www.mathsisfun.com/games/dayofweek.html
I was born on a Monday. Which ruined my plans for the next weekend.
Wow this image is awesome, the colors, ink work is all seriously cool. (i want one!!!)
Aww, thanks.
so true!
Do you see ghosts!?
perfect.
Thanks!
wow bro i love your style andf thats a awesome quote you got!
Thanks!
I love the stories that could cone from this
I need to get back to these...I have been working on another project and abandoned this theme for a bit
I was often sent into that dark room by my father to get something for him. I am still afraid of the dark. But this is not as frightening as sad for me now.
Hmmm.....maybe you should make a habit of taking a fresh Mojito with you everytime you go into a dark room. You'll be a bit more festive than sad and scared. I was always afraid of drowning so I got over it by taking a rack of ribs into the bathtub with me.
outstanding artwork love this lee
Thanks!
And honestly... I'm jealous of her lush looking hair.
who you calling lush!?
I deeply enjoy your choice of colour here,
How deep?
Love this!
Great description for the imagery!
What a cool work!
Thankee Annika!

awww....
awesome work !
That is going to go right to my head.

thankee
Wonderful. What mediums do you prefer? Is this india ink with watercolor? Your work is terrific.
Ink and water color. Simple and easy....it appeals to my lazy artist nature.
awesome piece here
Thanks much Brian!
What if I was born, like, on a Thursday...around, say, 4 PM? I don't have second sight but I am near sighted.
What!? Your near-sighted!? I thought you were nigh-perfect.
Yippes!
settle down!
Your. Illustrations. Are beautiful. Love it
thanks
I forgot to say ' Thank-You for stars ' ( * Smile * )
: )
I love your vivid imagination. The art you're making reminds me of the Grimm Fairy Tales designed to put the fear into kids ! Maybe so they would behave properly, or else ! Every drawing in your collection is enchanting.
Your work is beautiful!
: )
screeeeeeeech! look at that- in the doorway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a children's book?
Not yet. It's been put aside for a while.
You are very talented! impressive works!
thank you very much!
my third eye has opened, I hear the chimes of a haunting dawn while the rattle of midnight approaches
Great comment! Although, I'd instead of my Third Eye being opened- I rather have the door opened so I can run out of there!
Great work Kevin!
Thank you La Vida Roca!
its beautiful, this is off the paintings topic but it reminds me of the illustrations of a series of unfortunate events meeting pirates of the Caribbean
Hey! That's a great compliment!
Great style, great body of work!
Thankee muchee!
You have a qulity like nestor redondo. I work with him on some animation feature. the guy was awesome!
Thanks a lot! He was a Master.
thgus is very cool and shows you have talent.
Well, thank you!
What special work, you truly are gifted!
I'm going to need a bigger hat.
I love the woodcut feel to these pieces... so old-school.
Thank you very much!
Very nice to see this old style pen and wash revisted like this. I'm a huge fan of this kind of work. Really great stuff, wow!

Thanks Curly!

Love this piece...I wasn't aware of this particular superstition but have often wondered about little ones who seem to talk to their invisible friends :))
I knew a "little one" who used to talk to "invisible friends". His name was Hector. He was a Mexican midget with schizophrenia.
I think my little dog was born on the Chime hours:)) When everything feels nice and cosy he suddenly looks spooked as he stares at the hallway...and then I'm spooked.
Sorry for intruding, but you just reminded me of an old ghost movie I just watched called The Uninvited. Actually quite good, and it mentions quite a bit how animals react to ghosts.
It is not common knowledge, but dogs and cats are well aware of the human fear of the supernatural and so they like to play dirty tricks on us by pretending to stare at something in the hallway or closet. The dog or cat will take advantage of our crippling anoesis and pilfer money or credit cards from the nightstand.
The furry devils!
This reminds me of a tale I read once. And while i do not "see" ghosts, I will swear that I have heard them more than once.
Really? I'd love to hear the story. Some spooky writing seems to be in the works.
Which of us ply's our pen this time? :)
this is an unpleasant feeling ...
It is!
awe I want to laugh and be sad at the same time, I love how your work pulls such emotion from the viewers. :)
:)
SWEET,,LOVE
You know, I have thought about changing my street name to Sweet Love. I was going to go with 2-Ply Shakur.
I really like your art!
thanks
thanks for the stars your work is really unique, are you a story book illustrator
For myself now.
This is so lovely! I love the spooky yet tender atmosphere.
Spooky and tender? Darn it, I was trying for Spicy and Tender.
Nice composition....
So THAT"S why I can't see em? It all becomes clearer. Oh! And your illustration is wonderful! I love the style.
I cn
I can't see them either, and I don't want to see them either!
Love your stories love your art!
Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you!
The Best !!!!!
The Best! I've been called that before. If won Best Breed in a dog show twice. I never quite get used to the judge running his hands down my haunches though.
great!
Thank you. Nice tie.
Gotta love this!!!
Gotta thank you!
*Q* drewling over the tale/description
Drooling!? I can't have just drooling. You'll like a simpleton, you should clap while drooling! I can handle clapping and drooling!
(you'll LOOK like a simpleton...typo above)
Beautifully drawn and told.
Thank you Mr. Jiggety. (See, no drooling. Actually, I don't know.)
There are many things I love about this one, but my favorite are the woman's expression and that hair. I love the way you paint hair!
Psst....another secret- I spend a lot of time practicing drawing hair. I have piles of sketches dedicated to hair in various shapes on various heads.
Excus... uh excuse me, hi! My name is Lance and they told me you have a back room where you are selling the pictures of the hair. I am specifically seeking various shapes of hair and preferably on various heads. Can you help me out?
I do, I have something in the Ronettes hairstyle for you.
I love this. Your work really 'speaks' to me. ;-))
whOoo00oo! Speaks to you says you? Would love to hear all 'bout it says I.
[ i was standing right behind them... it was dirty! ]
interesting how the child is pointing, curious very well done!
A very tough piece for me...I did it all in one stroke.
Today's Bob Ross.
And here we have a happy tree...
I love this!
Very much like this one Kevin
Great artwork!
thank you!
top shelf stuff
I am going to put that comment on a T-shirt and wear it.
still love:)
Beautiful work, Kevin. And I have no idea what beer goggles are.
When you have imbibed enough brewskis...the very, very unattractive become very, very attractive. Hence- you are looking through beer-goggles. It is a guy thing. I should note- YOU would NEVER be viewed through beer-goggles. (Although, you are likely to have someone look at you from behind a tree, through a crack in the fence. Stalking is just another way of saying- I REALLY LOVE you).
Adorable and real for me ..
WHAt? How'd I miss that? Do explain....love to hear!
Kevin, your second sight shows!
Tequila gave me second sight once. No, that was crossed eyes. But, I fixed it with beer goggles.
giggles...love your humor!
I love the description...this is amazing.
Amazing work...image and words!
beautifly done
such a charming image!
You have a fantastic portfolio, great work, xoxo
I love your work, excellent!
Illustrations like these make me want to read the book...and look at the pictures!
Me too!
I adore this!!! You work is so beautiful : ).
Shucks... :)
I love this!
I thank you!
Love your work! Thank you for all the stars...
Your Welcome and thank yoouu!
Love it!
thanks!
Awesome also! :) spooky
Thanks!
wow ! love this
thanks! I really need to put up the description of this. k

a touch of J-Horror there. Like Brothers Grimm meets A tale of Two Sisters. (Yes, I know that is a Korean movie. Still.)

So thats what my son is pointing at when its bedtime! I think something like this is why I still sleep with the nightlight on...love it!

I would like to live in a haunted house. But, I want a ghost that was a butler. He could answer the door and bring me cigars. Also, it would be great if the haunted house had a ghost maid, ghost gardener and ghost chauffer. I suppose that's unrealistic so, I plan on winning the lottery and then buying a mansion and hiring a staff to walk around wearing white sheets.
