It’s been a while since I last posted. But I have a really good excuse: a 12-pound fluffball named Ada.
Figure 1: Ada.
Since she comes to work with me, I spend my idle moments playing with her instead of drawing.
Figure 2: Ada on a day when the grass is mowed.
But she’s getting older and calmer so she needs less attention.
Figure 3: Ada on a rainy (muddy) day.
And I’m really missing the doodling. So I’m going to try to make more time for it.
Figure 4: Ada after a bath.
It feels good to be back.

I made this to be a badge for my teammate Sagarika because she thought of a very smart idea today. (I couldn’t help but humming this to myself the while I drew it.)

It’s true, they have to have the right chemistry to communicate properly.

I know most of you read Tessasaurus through a feed reader, but if you get the chance, check out the new site, because it’s awesome. Not only does it look prettier (no more weird formatting!), it also has “Next” and “Previous” links at the bottom so you can keep paging through posts all the way back to the beginning. Many many thanks to Dan who set up the wordpress, helped me migrate all the posts (and comments!), tuned all the formating, and made the header image look pretty.
If you have any problems please let me know.

I love Heifer International but think they could use some better cards for gift giving.
