Back in the day, when my kids were wee folk, I would draw on their #LunchBags each day. I did it for over 800 school days. Making this #ArtForMyKids made me stupidly happy. Honestly, I really miss it.

Initially, Rock-a-Bye Bivalve focused much more on Patrick and #SpongeBob's attempt to raise a child. When Steve and Derek decided to veer toward poking fun at marriage this extended gag run had to go--probably my favorite lost sequence ever. 1/6

Marvel could have hired Paolo Rivera or Alex Ross. Emulating the illustrations of the time period but instead this is the result. Y'all can do better, this is embarrassing.

Having lived in the Bay Area during the 2018/19 fires it's surreal to be in SoCal experiencing it again. My heart goes out to all affected it's truly devastating.
