Grumpy Bird

by jeremy tankard

children's book
traditional drawn, digital colors

Really fun clumpily(?) inked art insanely colorful. Very loyal to the loose brush strokes much like sumi-e caligraphy and so forth.

here's the blurb: Bird wakes up feeling grumpy. Too grumpy to eat or play -- too grumpy even to fly. �Looks like I'm walking today,� says Bird. He walks past Sheep, who offers to keep him company. He walks past Rabbit, who also could use a walk. Raccoon, Beaver, and Fox join in, too. Before he knows it, a little exercise and companionship help Bird shake his bad mood.

This book reminds me of myself, only without the resolve. I wouldn't say skip a meal to buy it.. but if you already ate and you have 8 extra bucks on you , scoop it :D Peep more of Jeremy's art here.
