Some Zappa and Maple art, because I can't get enough of these. Also, I tried out something new. I tried out coloured lines! Please tell me what you think! The method I'm using now is not good, but I'm working on a better way. An easier, less tedious way. ^^ But this might be a look at the future of my art, because I might use more coloured lineart in the future. Like I said: tell me what you think!

I'm camping deep in the #SuperstitionMountains east of #Phoenix tonight after deciding not to return home to Utah just yet. Today was the last of the amazing UFO Congress; of which I was shooting Photos for. Tonight, I took a Jeep trail in 4x4 Low to get back in this pocket where most campers can't reach because of clearance issues and I'm about a half mile from the road. Most people don't camp in February though preferring to stay in expensive hotels especially when it's been raining for two days straight! Rock crawling was required for this free room and board. ::: on another spookier note I've been scaring myself reading up on #pigmies #reptillians and #bigfoots they have been sighted in the #Superstitions including several classic UFO sightings... I left some of my food at the bottom of this canyon and I have respect for these mountains. All I want to do is get a good nights rest in one of Arizona's most #paranormal mountain ranges! It's currently raining! 😅👽🙄 Shot this pic with the #iPhone7Plus tonight... #ufocongress #iufoc #az #arizonagram #ufology #eerie #landscape #camping #wilderness #superstitionwilderness (at Superstition Mountains)

Why call them micro pigs when we can call them Pig-mies

Unknown Creatures: The Pigmies

So this is a story that I grew up with when I was younger. My mum was born and bred in Adelaide and had many a stories to tell us when we would go and visit family. One that has stuck with me is a story my mum and Pa told me about Gorge Road.

This story is about Timmy and the Pigmies.

‘Timmy was a naughty little boy who would all ways get in trouble at school for bullying the little girls. One day is father sat him down and told him “son, if you don’t stop being mean to the other kids at school, I’m going to feed you to the pigmies”. Timmy was frightened by his father’s threat and stopped bullying for about a week before forgetting what his father had said and he pulled a little girls pig tails. That night when Timmy got home from school his father told Timmy to get in the car, they were going for a drive. They drove down Gorge Road just on the edge of dusk when Timmy’s dad pulled over onto the side of the road in front of a large, round cave. “Get out the car, son. I told you what would happen is you bullied the kids at school”. Timmy shocked got out the car, his father drove off with the intention to turn back around and pick him back up, hoping he experience had scared him. He turned around and drove back to the cave but by the time he got there the sun had gone down and Timmy was gone. The police and rescue were called and they started their search. They searched everywhere but even with torches it was too dark in the cave. They ventured into the cave at the crack of dawn. What they found sealed the fate of little Timmy. They found a small skeleton, stripped of all flesh beside the eye ball that still lay in the skull. The bones had dents and chips associated with the feeding of animals.’

My Pa told me about Pigmies. They are small human like creatures with pig legs that live in the caves along Gorge Road. They eat any meat they can get their paws on but they love the taste of human. They hate the sun light so they stay inside their caves during the day but stalk out during the night. I was told that they like to jump on top of cars to try and rip out the unsuspecting victims but get frightened away when other cars drive past shining light on them.

I drew a quick sketch of what i always thought they looked like growing up.

i know that these creature may or may not (I lean towards may not) but I thought that this would be nice creepy story to share.
