Watch out for the Crummer! He sucks out all of the yellow highlighter markings in your favorite books, he toggles the top of your pants zipper so that it won’t fold down at the top, he sneaks chapstick into your washing machine, and he forces those five strands of hair on your head to go…
More drawings from my sketchbook. I’m really having a blast with my Akashiya brush pen! BONUS! JJ wanted a drawing of something with a beard, so here you go:
