Nothing is Ever Just Black and White

        One of the most stressful things about this blog, as time goes on, has to be coming up with something original to say about the works I post on here. Provide some kind of way to justify posting what I post, some great big tie-in to life or current events, or some lengthy and deep metaphor -so it seems like I know what I'm doing. You can see how it starts to get a little taxing. There's also a standard of excellence I've set for the work I post. These combine with being busy, and a bunch of other silly excuses and before you know it, I've only posted once in the last seven months! So today I say; "phooey to the rules I've set for no reason!" Because if rules are holding you back from achieving your goals, they aren't rules at all! I believe the word is 'limitation'. That said, here's a post that doesn't meet my personal expectations for what is blog worthy, but is still awesome.One of my biggest achievements actually, because I have never been much for shading.

 Unfortunately, it appears I can't break all my limitations in one post. Just look at that beautifully deep and lengthy metaphor. Isn't life wonderful? So, until next time; Remember who you are, and keep on keepin' on!  

Life's a Roller coaster

Wow, it's been a loooooong time since we've come into contact. For that I apologize.
Well, the summer's end is enveloping us, and before it gets too close, get out there and have some fun! Go swimming, take a road trip, ride a thrilling roller coaster, metaphorical or otherwise!

If your job entails you working all summer long, that's calamitous, and we hope you are having fun, at the very least!

Keep on keepin' on!

You Raise me up....

As Jeff says, nothing chases darkness away like a warm embrace.
This came as a shock to both of us, but there's a sparse amount of hugging mentioned in the Scriptures, or anywhere else for that matter. So, forgive me for not attaching the most inspirational quotes ever, I'm only human. Either way, I'm sure you can agree that the message still shines through, though.

Love is in the air....

Like it or not, Valentine's Day is a fairly annual thing... and what do you know? It's here again.

Although I'm not particularly fond of this holiday, both Jeffery and I agree it certainly has it's upsides.

   So, whatever's smitten you this year, go and enjoy it, and feel loved. Life's more fun that way.

"Good tidings of great joy"

Nothing gets the Christmas Spirit flowing quite like a Nativity re-enactment. Am I right? Yeah, I am.

What better way to remember that a Savior is born? 

Personally, I'm surprised that the angel outfits last as long as they do before getting stained. I guess all that dreaming of a white Christmas helps... 

Anyway, Merry Christmas to all the peoples (and all the Creechers too!) And we'll see you in 2016!

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.

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. 

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.
