Fireboy & Booyah
January 2010
Wacom Intuos 9x12, Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0

The picture was pitched to me thusly, and I attempted to clarify it in turn, in that magical language we call Deafanese:

[12/28/2009 9:50:36 PM] Fireboy Erin says: i pick on booyah just funny
[12/28/2009 9:50:54 PM] Fireboy Erin says: i act like silly
[12/28/2009 9:51:06 PM] Professor Hazard says: you bully booyah little funny
[12/28/2009 9:51:27 PM] Fireboy Erin says: lol
[12/28/2009 9:52:02 PM] Fireboy Erin says: you are think bully
[12/28/2009 9:52:20 PM] Professor Hazard says: yeah make him funny
[12/28/2009 9:52:23 PM] Professor Hazard says: that what you want for draw?
[12/28/2009 9:52:49 PM] Fireboy Erin says: just pick
[12/28/2009 9:53:26 PM] Fireboy Erin says: any want draw ok

And so immediately the imagery formed in my head. The happy-go-lucky robot boy Fireboy Erin casually murdering Seņor Booyah, who is politely trying his best to extricate himself from Erin's unfeeling robotic noogie.

I may not know art, but I know what I like.
