Nice shapes and patters. Excellent detail.
Crisp lines and good use of the sharpie and pens.
Perfect blending and highlights in the art work. Good use of color.
Drawing skills are excellent and good use of paper to make yhe drawing come to life.

What a darling cartoon of a bunny hatching from an egg.
Not sure why the description was in a weird code but I figured out that It's done with sharpies and bic pens on cardstock paper!
Great job as always!

This is a very cute entry for the contest and I enjoyed watching the video too, but wasn't too sure what the connection is - or am I just being dumb??? Lol
Great little drawing and just in time for Easter! Good luck in the contest!

Cute image and the video was a nice touch as well. I like the story behind it and the music. The image is perfect for Easter which is right around the corner. Nice colors and presentation. Thanks for sharing.

Oh my god my friend this is so beautiful I really love this so much. You are just such a magnificent cartoonist I really love to see your work. The colors are just phenomenal the details are so perfect. I don't know what else to say this is just perfect. I am so happy to have a six to give you today I run out so quick. Do you still want me to send you pictures of couples of my work? I'm sorry I haven't sent them to you I've been sick I'm finally feeling better.

Nicely drawn entry for the pet art contest. I like the details you put into the surroundings of this cute little guy. The fence and the shadowing are well done. Thank you for sharing

Mark, you are standing true to your expertise. Your humor is subtle, whimsical and very enjoyable. It is important to see and understand what it is all about.
This morning I saw a particular article in the newspaper titled "The Ten Best Dressed Pets for Easter".
Then I saw your hamster with bunny ears on "Why Me". All the pets had the same expression as your hamster had. You certainly have your finger on the pulse of humanity.
The cartoon has the signature Mark Flood green hedge and white picket fence with shadows. This year, for the photo opt they had to revert to hamsters, because the pay scales for Santa Claus, Easter Bunnies and Easter Chicks has gone through the roof.
I totally enjoyed the video, "Its Not Easy Being Me" by ACDC by the way excellent job and I noticed you to artistic license and gave the character a blue cape. This parallels the cartoon and is very appropriate. Fantastic take on the song. My personal opinion, I was disappointed with the ending, namely the straight jacket, because "everyone has the right to dream".

    well i have another old one for ya..do a FAR title search for "do they look happy" and you will chuckle over that one as well. now the video that is attached the music is from "Five For Fighting" that group has been in the pop charts for the last decades. now about the video..i bet it felt like a hit in the gut at the end? well that is by design because if you watch this video just one more time you will catch the whole story is a fantasy by someone from a psych ward..seriously watch it one more time with that in mind. the ending is the wake up call for that person. i did this video years ago..course for years i would always end in dont stop believe...then i amend the statement for the last few years to.. STOP DREAMING....START DOING...AND DONT EVER STOP BELVIEVING IN YOURSELF...thanks for the awesome review

Well, the drawing is great, cartoon style, especially the leaves in the background and the picket fence in white. I look forward to seeing the video. It is so late at night, morning can't watch it now. Nice work, artist friend, with shadows of the broken egg and picket fence. Nice alert rabbit, cute.
