My Monsters and the Room Mate Blues

Ever since I moved out of the house and into the dorms last Fall I've found a new obsession with monsters. This makes sense because I've been living with four of them since August last year. And like most of my obsessions, this one has found its expression through my art. I draw them in class, in bed, on benches during my room mate escaping walks around campus; I draw them everywhere. Many of them are cute and friendly looking while the others end up taking on the characteristics of my room mates. This little blue one here reminds me of the worst of them. She's short, always making noise, and despite her looks is the most popular among our pod. Some might say she makes me ROARING mad! Get it? Roar... like a monster.... Anyway, thankfully I don't actually have to share a room with any of my real life monsters. Hopefully next years room mates will inspire something with a more positive connotation to it. But hey, at least I got some good art out of this year!
