Artist Block and the Big-Toothed Pea Eater

I'm new to blogger, so bare with me as I try to figure out all my layout schtuff.

I'll start out by posting this. It's a drawing I painted awhile back when I was trying to learn the tools in Painter. I haven't used painter in awhile, so I should probably "brush up" on my knowledge on it again soon.

This character was created during a period of "artist block". I was sitting in bed with my sketchbook late at night and having one of those "I want to draw but I don't know what to draw" moments. My fiance Carly said "draw a big-toothed pea eater" so this is what I came up with. I love collaboration.
