His Breath Smelled like Limburger Cheese

maybe he’s saying, “In my day, when a kid broke a window with a baseball, we pulled his underwear over his head and hung him from the window…” lol.
great look of terror on the kid’s face tho

day old limburger cheese…...and he’s angry because rodney cut the bushes to short… now the neighbors can see into the house…it’s much too bright

Excellent!

He’s saying, “If you don’t eat your fruit and vegetables, you’ll grow up to look like me!”

The old man looks like a house-servant. The drawing is sublime: magical and not too scary, but certainly that boy is surprised. When you think of the story, I’d love to hear it man! Good work!

Ha! Some groovy-ass stuff, right there.

This is just wonderful!

Oh WOW! Your drawing is amazing!!! Brilliant!!

i could look at this for ages, the detail is fab, fantastic drawings just spill outa ya don’t they just!
Well, the thing i prob love best is the light and shade, it’s bloody fantastic. You are so annoying tho!
I tried to say it’s crap, but i just can’t!!!.....sO, i guess i am just going to accept that i am nicer than you…(or just plain passive-aggressive….....so don’t push me Steven, lol)

Superb detail. I could almost smell that limburger cheese.

Awesome!!!

brilliant illustration! Sure seem like there’s a definate story there to be told. Hmm, did anyone ever tell you that your profile pic makes you look like Ewyn McGregor? Not an ugly man to look like for sure LOL!!

Rock on, Steven!

This is wonderful, & beautiful, such detail, such characters, hee hee, i wouldn’t want to be in that kid’s shoes. Gonna be a great story

no it doesn’t…. from lack of sunlight… he’s used the fire for light for years…. his sight has diminished to nothing from all the squinting he’s had to do…..... the wrinkles grew heavy from overly used squint muscles…........

cause old people are scary to kids, i think. i know I didn’t like them. Hell, I still don’t most of the time. :)

No it is brilliant and now it’s my turn to be jealous ;-)

I’m old but no-one is scared of me … where did I go wrong? :))

Awesome work! :)

OH my god! Your work is amazing!! those eyelids are so expressive and Your drawings have so much life and movement in them. You really do live and breathe your work, don’t you? I’m in awe.

WOW!!!!! fantastic work…I also think you have a story here….

Such a wonderful imagination Steven

lol….very creative work

lol! poor little kid is praying mum won’t be long…brilliant work..love your style;)

OMG! awesome rendering!........YOU need a break after this one!!! hehe!

All you stuff is incredible – Thanks for leaving a footprint! :)

Great work Steve – very expressive

shivers.

Sorry its a dirty old man with bad breath :(
Or one fugly old Vampire! lol
xXx

This is awesome! So much drama here. Would love to know the story behind it, but one’s imagination can make an interesting story I believe.

Very cool! Love it! Although I wouldn’t like to be smelling his breath either…LOL

wow great detail. Nice image.

lol and great in sense, I do remember stuff like that….....

Thanks Meiko!

Very well done.

Billy was dared to sneak into scary eyebrow mans spooky hilltop house and old scary eyebrow man jumped out and nabbed him .
I know a typical type cast observation , maybe they are just comparing screams, who knows its just a fantastic comical artwork.
Well done !

Eeehee…he reminds me of a guy I dated :0 Hahaha

Steven ,
you have a wonderful style … i like all of your drawings … im an illustrator also for children but i will put my drawings in the site nearly …. i like your way in drawing so much

Maybe he’s not really angry.. just old.. and everything hurts!! Great piece though..

another gr8 piece steve, cheers

Excellent drawing….the old bloke’s not taken his meds (they’re stashed away under the kitchen sink). Through his failing eyes this disgusting liittle boy begins to look more and more like Limburger cheese…..he’s even beginning to smell like it….it IS cheese! Bares decaying jaws wide…..
SORRY! Now where are my tablets…..?

all the above steven

He’s ran out of boiled lollies…. only cheese left.
Can anyone say “Rock Spider”?

Oh I love this…and your story will follow of course…I always come up with an image idea before I realize what it’s supposed to mean, lol.

This is an excellent drawing!! Awesome!!

Cool b/w. Nicely done

Oh wow Steven your an amazing artist!..I love this and look forward to your story! I also can’t wait to dive into your portfolio!

Your work is beautifully exciting !!! I want to hear this story as well … although as I sit and look at this brilliant drawing .. I am finding that I am making my own story up. I LOVE the way you can shade so perfectly .. my eyes love to take in each inch of this piece!! The intesity that you can achieve is increduble !!!!!!!!!

I have a very odd and sometimes macabre sense of what is fitting for tales to tell my grandson. I’m sure there are times when this tableau defines our relationship. I am definitely favoriting this. Great job.

Feel free….I’t only work’s if your one of the last to comment….

oho now that’s creepy (and funny)!

have you seen The Orphanage, Steven?! this image is like Bayona’s The Orphanage in reverse…. hehe maybe a famous director will see this and be inspired to make a film called “THE NURSING HOME” :P

I can write for you very good story if you wish to illustrate your fabulouse picture…Grazie

Outsanding talent .. imaginative illustration that captured my attention

Ewwww – I had a dentist like this when I was little! His name was Dr. Mason. hahahahaha this is great!

Fantastic Work

Wonderful again! You rock!

Fantastic storytelling and an incredible style!!

EXCELLENT Work!

LOL, I thoroughly enjoyed reading ALL of the comments here…and of course your work!!! This is great Steven!

your work is incredibly astounding .. such a talent !!

,,, this piece inspires me so much.

Ha Ha. This reminds me of my Great Uncle Saul. Old people scare kids. Great work.

Again a BRILLIANT b/w work!!

You are a wonderful illustrator! Are you doing any animation with your work? Your work almost looks alive as it is! I could have picked any one to comment on. They are all great!

When your ready, download a 30 day free Flash trial, take the tutorial, and get imaginative. With your art it ought to be great!

This illustration shows a lot of fear and horror in the child’s eyes, which they should not experience if the child knows that they are loved no matter what accident they have created?
But to me, it brings in the other illustration that you had created.

love the title…not the breath

wow, just a fantastic piece

Disturbingly Adorable. Your work is fantastic.

love to eat stinky cheese actually – particularly with nasty ass cheap wine at art exhibitions – tends to repeat on me though :)

You can use it for the Title of your next work.. Consider it an inspiration.
DISTURBINGLY ADORABLE

So nice!!! Great expression in the two faces!!!!

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this!!!!! this takes me back to the day when I was a child and forced to sit on Santa’s knee for pics….Hated it…It was so scary!!!!!!!!

simply wonderful!!!

Lol! I absolutely love it!

r.e. burping contest IBS syndrome provides a hidden advantage – I can’t stop returning to this image – such an admirable depiction of a disturbing rite of passage :)

Wow! Amazing work! Such talent!

LOL… I think that maybe the kid had to be tutoured in math and this is the guy that his mum (mom if you are American…lol) has ddug up for him. just think math is bad enough… now he has to hang out with this guy to pass…

Great pic…

Such talent…amazing…in awe of your talent and of the image.

Reminds me of our headmaster I would be sent to for not knowing my spelling. I was eleven,
and living with Uncle & Aunt & their two younger Children, & the child’s fearful expression, yep
how I felt … the old guy did do tutoring after he retired at 65… Rosemaree could be right.
Such expressive facial features, exceedingly cleaver..

love the title..and very expressive drawing! amazing work…

Amazing work
