Une vache, une télé et deux bouquins

I didn't have a lot of time lately because my little house has been full of friends and kids - that was great! I didn't read any new book, but I missed drawing books, so I quickly sketched these two. They are some of my all times favorites, read many times! The one on the right I've dragged with me everywhere since I was a kid, and the other one is new because I keep giving it and buying it again. I don't have this one any more, either!

And this is challenge n°51, draw your tv and favorite tv show running. This is one of the anime my daughter watches regularly and my favorite one to hear or watch a little, it's silly and funny. The cow lives with the family. Here she wants to become a swimming champion. The mother is speaking "English" in her own, very particular way. And the father is a telephone...

Your journal pages are so interesting - the way you use the page is eyecatching and attractive. The cow program sounds so funny.

I love your pages, the color, composition and of course the typography work so well together, it makes me wish I remembered more of high school French

I'm taking a guess, but is that Desolation Angels by Kerouac? I loved that book! I love the sketches too, of course...

Thanks for all the comments! Mark, the book is Dharma Bums, I don't think I've read Desolation Angels but I'll look for it! I loved 0n the Road, too.

Visually, the pig guy and the two people make me laugh. I like it! Reminds me of my time in Paris when I was watching cartoons in the hostel cafeteria with a bunch of kids. I had no idea what was going on (but it was still fun to watch).

I am a fan of Kerouac and have nearly all his books. I was trying to guess what the title was with my french knowledge...I thought it was desolation angels (my second fave book behind Dharma Bums), too.

happy reading and sketching!

I haven't tried drawing a book yet, but I have a big pile of them by my bed. Maybe in the morning....
