Hallo, Halloween!

Here's something you might recognize.... of course, you might not too. It depends how long you've been keeping up with the going's on going on with these guys.

Allow me to explain. This picture is from last Halloween, just a couple months before I decided to start this blog, so those of you who weren't aware of us before then wouldn't recognize this picture. I did however, post it to my face book last October, and that's how some of you may recognize it. No worries if this is your first time seeing it, we understand completely. 

Either way, it's Halloween once again, so now I can post this to here as a patriotic retro post, and not have it weirdly out of place, like it would have been at any other point throughout the almost year this blog's been around.

Presently presenting Jeffery.

If you would, please allow me the privilege of introducing a Creecher who's stuck around since the very first days of the Creecher Universe. Don't believe me? That's him on the farthest left here, and on the right beside Ray here.

This is Jeff, dubbed Jeff 'Bear hugs' on account of his trademark embraces; so tight, they're almost chiropractic, but still congenially therapeutic. Speaking of big words, Jeff wants me to point out that the reason hugs are such a relief is that they release oxytocin and serotonin, which, without getting to deep into it, bring about feelings of trust, empathy, and joy, doing away with loneliness, stress, and anger.
He also knows that along with a hug, a big smile, and just being there to listen can make a world of difference. We won't go into the psychological terminology behind all that, no matter how much Jeff wants to, because if we do, you'll get bored.
With his big heart, big smile, and winning hugs, it's no wonder Jeffery has stood the test of time, and will most likely continue to for many years to come.

From Hero to There-o

  About four months before this blog started up, I had the idea to peer into the subconscious of our dear Creecher's in what I called the 'Dream Collection' , and I drew a draft of the work below, along with the piece featured in 'Second Post', and was fully ready to draw more. Unfortunately, the idea ended up put to the side when my location changed, and this drawing stayed untouched, until now.
  So, here it is, looking great, and you know.... I still don't know who's dreaming; Mark, or Alexa?

Story time, kids.

Here's another introduction to a lesser known. Because, why stop at one, am I right?
This is Rick, another Creecher who you saw the first time when the background was changed.  However, Rick has a bit more of a history to him, in more ways than one. He was first conceived long before the background was even an idea, as part of a Social studies project. Rick represented individualism, and demonstrated how it benefited the common good.
Rick is still just as cool as when he first escaped the tip of the pencil, being one of few who can overlook the impracticality of wearing sunglasses, but he doesn't let it go to his head. In fact, anyone'll tell you, he's anything but exclusive, and takes time to help out whenever he can.

You may notice this

Yeah, I changed the look of the blog. Nothing major, it's just a little more personalized, with a 'Brady-bunch'-esque drawing filling up the background, similar to this one:

All of the characters you see before you have made previous appearances in my drawings. Excluding one..... and a half. Not all have previously appeared on my Blog though, but this is to change that.  

Long time, no posts

Why hello!

It's been a long time since I posted anything because I've been too busy making up an excuse for my absence. So, here is a trip down memory lane. Partially because I don't have much else to offer in this actually quite busy time, but also, one of the teacher's at my high school is retiring, and when I first made this, it was because several teachers at my previous high school were retiring, and this was my goodbye to them.

So in light of recent events, I felt it necessary to shake the dust off this piece. By the way, I promise more is coming. 

Two for one

For the record, and the about two of you who don't know, I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, or more commonly, the Mormon's, and proud to be one. The works today and probably several times in the future, will display that. 

First off, this piece was started months ago, and only a couple weeks ago did I come back and add to it, making it what it is today. The caption around it comes from one of my favorite songs for LDS Youth, 'Priesthood Men' you can listen to it here. Just search it on the right hand side.

Of course, with the kind of guy that I am, having made one for young men, I had to make one for young women, to even the playing field. I tried not to just make an exact duplicate with eyelashes and dresses, and I think it worked out really well. The caption is from an LDS hymn you can listen to here.

You guys are so lucky...

Well, here it is, the first thing posted on here that wasn't in progress before my blog started, you guys oughta feel really privileged. I really like how this one turned out. This work also holds the title for the longest time any of my work has been edited in on the computer. I hope you think it was worth it, I sure do.
