I love those gold fish. I have quite a few goldfish back home and they all got the same blank stares and silly shapes :)

chia said...

seriously, is there anything you can't draw inspiration from? that in itself is a talent and it's just one in your arsenal! i am yet again blown away.

Siamese have a particular aversion to all types of paradise fruits. Pineapples, mangoes, and papayas. It is surprising that they are quite comfortable around coconuts, however.

Good post.

Awesome goldfish =)! I love the last one.

Cute fish! I had a puffy fish one time and it bit my finger when I fed it.

Brian Growe said...

Aww! They're great Miss Brianne! Your drawings are always so cute and wonderful! Yay! I like "the banana-cats" too, I bet you're trying that right now with your kitty, right? :) I hope you feel better!

Stupid blogger!! Let me comment! Oh my god, the goldfish balloons - so adorable! I had bubble-eyed goldfish as a kid, too. It was so tempting to take a poke at them. They lived for four years and wouldn't die even when my dad tried to hose 'em. Such awesome designs! I'd love to buy a print of the last and the one pooping your name if you do those.

i love these! that is a great idea too, the fish balloons.

PotatoFarmGirl said...

Thanks! I feel better, I had hot tea at lunch, I like goldfish, they are pretty and goofy. If anyone wants a print, I could probably mail of some computer prints of the fish. If I get off my lazy ass.

Jennie Hoffer said...

William Bradford said...

Man the comments pile up fast here; I was hoping to get one in while it would still be noticed. Of course I got nothing original to say about these; they're cute and funny and pretty, like everyone else said. I'll say it too, though

Hope you feel better soon,drink lots of tea and get some rest.

LFW said...

These are just freakin' awsome.

The googly eyed goldfish was always my favourite because they always looked so funny but didn't seem to mind that their eyes were so big.

keep up the great work

your big-eyed fan

Your work is incredible. Some friend of mine show me one of your draws. That one was a girl with a sword, and behind her it was a dragon.

Those bubble-cheeked fish have defied the laws of practical science to evolve the way they have!
You've drawn so many lovely fish tails. I'm captivated by them!
