I can't draw. Peanuts are suprisingly easy to draw. I still can't draw them well. Here are my attempts on drawing Peanuts.

D'oh!
So I drew that Twilight Zone peanut scene on Friday. I proudly showed it to my friend who'd never seen the episode. But she'd seen the Simpsons version of it. *sigh*

Happy Leap Year
Hello!
Happy Leap Year!
And no... as clearly labeled in my picture, I did not spell "Mascott" incorrectly. It's a shameless plug. (Hi Mark! I'm a horrible person. I've been meaning to call, really. I hope you are doing well!)

The Lorax
The Lorax movie is soon due in theatres. I love Dr. Seuss and can only hope the film makers respect him as much as I do.
I saw a commercial for the movie yesterday where someone refers to the Lorax as a talking Peanut.
For that, this. ;)

Science Fiction Fandom Fridays
So. I'm going to try posting a sci-fi related Peanut on Fridays from now on.
A couple of things need to be clarified for this picture...
• I've only watched up to the 3rd episode of season 3 with David Tennant.
• I've only watched up to the 3rd Season because of Torchwood.
• If I could draw Captain Jack Harkness' sweet jacket, Captain Peanut Harkness would have been posted first instead of the silly Daleknut.
• David Tennentnut / Christopher Eccelstonut would have been difficult to draw since David/Christopher didn't wear a fez or long scarf or celery. I would have drawn it and you all would have been like, "This could be any nut! I can't tell if this is David or Tom or Colin or who the heck!"
• Matt Smith is current, which somehow makes this blog more relevant.
Cheers!

Peanut. Attorney at Law
Long story short.
Company (who remains unnamed because I don't want to drag their name in the mud) gave me a faulty product. Complaints in store went unresolved. Complained on a social network site. Got someone higher up involved, and after some back and forth, I will be getting compensation in the form of products / services that would more or less be equivalent to a refund.
Good enough and (as of this moment) I'm a happy customer again (pending that everything goes smoothly when I return to the store to claim the compensation).
In all seriousness, I am truly happy that the company cared enough to listen to my complaints and do their best to fix it. Hopefully things go well. Feel free to wish me luck. :D
When I mentioned this to my friend she said I should be her Peanut at Law for the next time she buys a similar product and negotiate bonus swag for her.
I drew this.

Fruit Bat Nut
One of my friends decided I was more of a fruit bat than a peanut. I refuse to let go of my nickname. I compromised.

Peanutizing - illustrated
This is an illustration of the action I call "Peanutizing" which involves a lot of hugging, squishing, and naming things 'George'. The caption 'guilty peanut!!!' was added by Lady Caramel, who felt I was being suspicious.

Oscar Myer doesn't have to be the only one....
So I discovered this via Laughing Squid.
Yeah.
This Peanut will likely never be quite as classy as Mr. Peanut.
I don't even have a FB page.

WhiteBoard Cave Peanut
This Cave Peanut was left for a friend, who works in another part of the building. We seldom run into each other and I was leaving little friendly "hello buddy" type notes on his white board so he knew I was there.
He never kept my notes there long... some excuse about executive people wandering around his desk or something.
Pffft.
So in my frustration, Cave Peanut made his second appearance.
Please note that Cave Peanut does change his clothes. Just because he's a Cave Peanut, doesn't mean he's not civilized.

Nutella Day
The Peanut endorses anything that doesn't involve cannibalism. After all, this blog isn't called Hazelnut A Day. (But I suspect Hazelnuts are probably easier to draw than Peanuts.)

Save My Baby!
This is a detail of a Christmas Sculpture I had made for work (it was part of a decorate your desk contest) entitled: The Nutcracker. Not pictured is the giant nutcracker behind them eating another peanut, with peanut carnage around his feet.
Don't ask questions. I wouldn't be able to give a reasonable answer anyway.

Bonus: Fanart for Jenneta Problems
Fan art for some really nice peoples that I work and worked with. They (Jenneta) are adorable, and my limited art skills do not convey the cuteness.
Please go here to see the cuteness I cannot capture.

Tweeky Peanut
I suppose if you haven't noticed already, I should explain that I often label my pictures. I'm very aware that I cannot draw and it is best to label items within, lest someone mistake caffeine-buzzy lines as tape worms escaping from the Peanut brain or something more obscure.
It is probably a good idea, when in my company, not to pic me to be on your team in Pictionary or any other game requiring sketching skills.

Introducing Cave Peanut
The quick paced world of advertising. Deadlines come and go. And someone is always late, and the Peanut gets angry and turns green... no wait... how about, the Peanut gets angry and suddenly develops a unibrow and sloping forehead?

Late Nite Peanut

Introduction
Hello!
My nickname is Peanut. I cannot draw very well. I want to be able to draw. I really do. I would love to be able to express myself through drawn art.
This blog will feature the best I can do.
So. Presented to you with little or no explaination, here is Peanut A Day, a presentation of badly drawn peanut creatures, which may or may not be self portraits also.
