Wacky Sunday. The prince of "oh no, back to work tomorrow" goes to the store to buy milk. (Lactose free, of course.)
Wicked. Will alone is what we need. Will...with a bunch of money from a rich uncle...
What in the world? Can we just get to the pictures already???

"Smile" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Digital drawing created with MS Paint on my laptop with a silly, clunky touchpad.] Who's in charge here??? I would like to formally file a complaint! Why is this incredibly useful, inexpensive, and obviously HEAVENLY technology being ignored? People aren't just throwing the baby out with the bathwater, their tossing the entire TUB off the side of a cliff! Oh well; our cult with continue in the darkness!

"Do You Ever Feel Like a Goblin?" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen and brush pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] Yes. I often feel like a goblin, but one who has been cast out of the fairy world and stripped of all his powers. Punished for some terrible offense, like falling in love with a HUMAN... What a foolish thing to do!

"Mantis People" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, brush pen, liner pen, sticker collage, cardboard collage, and tape on reclaimed cardboard with minor digital embellishments.] The ancient MANTIS PEOPLE are proponents of the UNDERGROUND CASSETTE TRADING NETWORK. This bizarre and terrifying activity isn't ONLY practiced by the MANTIS folk, but they are the most notorious participants. Don't dig too deeply into CASSETTE TRADING, whatever you do. Some ancient practices should STAY LOST...

"Groppoh the Fleep" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Digital drawing created using MS Paint on my laptop.] Saint Groppoh started "LIFE" as a rock wall that protected the alleyway behind a holy ICE CREAM SHOP. When a gang of motorcycle-vegans threatened the very EXISTENCE of the ice cream parlor, the MIGHTY and righteous SODA-JERK, Hank, performed a divine incantation and brought the spirit of GROPPOH THE FLEEP to life using the stones from the alley wall as a body. The rest of the story is undoubtedly well known by everyone...

"Tentacles in the Sky"
PAINT - 7 FEB. 2026 - I've been making paper zines again. Fun to do. EASY. Plus, I've got a table coming up at a local FAN CON! (Fan Convention.) I enjoy the paper arts: zines and postcards and books... All that stuff. All that stuff all at once. Then we take pictures and print them and make them into more zines and upload them to the interwebs... Thrills and chills and bellyaches!!!!

"Spaced Out" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, brush pen, sticker collage, and tape on reclaimed cardboard with teeny weeny itsy bitsy digital embellishments.] I'm pretty sure this was meant to be a page in a hand-made, cardboard book, although I can't recall, for sure, if it made it IN to one or not! (I make a ton of stuff, and sometimes I don't FINISH them.) They are unofficially declassified as ELEMENTS until needed in some future project. Yeah?

Please make a THING. It doesn't have to be NEW or FANCY. It just has to be FROM YOU.
I'm having fun. Maybe you will, too...
