A brief history of notKeith, flying angrily in the face of blogging convention by posting in chronological order. Old at the top, young at the bottom. That’s me explaining “chronological order” right there. Never overestimate your audience.
Alternative Borises
The first half-decent pics I did after I decided that my old blog was going to be about me taking up drawing again, rather than moaning about having MS. These got published in Grasslimb – out now!
Surgery
And then I found out that I had an inoperable congenital cerebral aneurysm in my right frontal parietal. Why I’m drawing pictures of surgery when the aneurysm’s inoperable is anybody’s guess. Hot nurses! Theme!
Wheelchair
My fear: being crippled. I clearly have no fear of being a melodramatic twat.
Pablo For Our Sins
I still miss Pablo, and he wasn’t even my cat. One of Stan’s most moving posts, I thought.
Brains
I quite like this one. Was playing round with drawing brains for a possible blog banner design, and it turned into this. It’s at this point it all goes a bit wrong.
Cross-Dressed Cock in Gingham
Don’t ask me to explain. I don’t think I could. It’s where the cock drawing started. Theme!
Infinite Split
A first attempt at painting. Brains that look like a bell-end: theme combo!
Disappointed Robots
Stan pointed out that the lady robot’s mouth looked like a glans. I thought I was getting over my obsession with drawing penises. Tilly has saved me from spending my thirties cottaging.
Creepy Man With Creepy Hand
One of my favourites.
Urethra Franklin
On discovering I didn’t have the clap. Hot nurse! Cock! Elaborate pubes.
Tilly
Tilly. Caused a bit of a kerfuffle. Also, cock!
Prison Train of the Big-Titted Nazi Face-Sitting Cannibals
So the Tilly pic caused some fallout. This was my response to accusations of being lame and immature. I showed ‘em!
Tentacle Monster’s Show of Affection Mistaken for Attack
Sketchbook stuff, but Selena quite liked it, and she’s been enormously supportive, so included here for no more reason than that.
Beauty and the Burberry
Last pic at the old place. I’m over the cock thing! Until I find out I’ve got Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.

I hope you still have the same email address. I just sent you an email. I was wondering if you would like to collaborate on something.

Well howdy and welcome to your new space. Nice and roomy here. I like the suggestive red curtain!
And thanks for pimping Grasslimb, something it can never get enough of.
September 14, 2008 at 10:22 pm
Excellent. Excellent excellent excellent. The drawings look great together like that. I’m going to try and get other people to see them. I am going to be your pimp. Which will make you my whore.
Now, I dare you paint those lilies.

Your clock is wrong.
September 15, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Super new place! Would you mind staying put for a while please as my feed reader thingy is getting cross.
September 15, 2008 at 4:43 pm
Thanks for the instruction on “chronological order”- Now please to ’splain alfabetikal ordur to me as well, too…?
Good call on the farewell to the cock- I hope you never post that you have Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease…which I looked up- because I really didn’t know what that was- I’m sure Mrs. Hall Got the reference- Hi Mrs. Hall- so if you’re giving up on the fallic pictures until then- what will you start making if you find out you have Mad Cow?
As to the site, “I don’t know of any earthly way you could make it better.”- ok maybe there are- but I can’t think of any at the moment.
P.S. It’s my favorite becase, if you didn’t have the picture title I’m sure that people would immediately think the drawing was of an monster/alien being hostile; when, in fact, all it is doing is trying to smile and be friendly.
I think it says a lot about people’s perceptions.
“Just sketch book stuff”, Pfft!
P.P.S- Hi Valerie in San Diego- I’m in San Diego too- It’s such a small Internet World.
September 15, 2008 at 8:25 pm
Mrs Hall: hey there. You should have my response in your inbox.
Valerie: Hello, and thank you. As for pimping Grasslimb – well, I can hardly claim to be entirely disinterested – but you’re more than welcome.
Betty: thanks, daddy! I can call you that in public now, can’t I? They weredamn realistic-looking lilies.
Penelope: thank you. Also, hello! I intend to stay here forever. Which, in internet years, is probably about a week and a half.
Selena: Hallooo! I had no idea you were in San Diego. Glad you could drop by. If I get CJD, well, I really have no idea what I’d post. Probably page after tear-soaked blank page. Mixed with runny poo daubings. I’ve now got the CJD fear.
September 15, 2008 at 10:05 pm
Now you know and knowing is half the battle!
Don’t be afraid of CJD; be afraid of the Bird Flu or Lupus. I’ve learned, on the hit TV show House, Lupus is always one of the 1st things the patient could be suffering from.
Are you sure you don’t have Lupus?
September 16, 2008 at 12:38 am
A complete side note here. I was a neurology nurse for my first three years as a nurse. I worked with MS patients, Parkinson’s patients, those with epilepsy and other neurology disorders. I worked with kids and adults. I even had on CJD patient.
The brain is my first love. If you want to hear me wax poetic about this, go to my blog and see my post entitled, “Like Homer Simpson to a Doughnut.”
SO! Very weird I happen upon this very blog. Completely random.
But, I don’t believe there are any accidents.
But no lupus. I think that is internal medication, not neurology. All medical care and their associated ailments are subdivided into their own names. Like, obstetrics, internal medicine or neurology. At least here, in the states that is.
Hence, House is an internist. But wait, does he do surgery?
Fuck! What am I doing? I can’t turn off my nurse brain even in an art blog!!!
Ok enough!!!!

I’ve always loved your drawings, ever since Stan pimped your first site out. Do you do commissions? My sick sense of humour can think of one right now that I’d love to have you do; me attempting to rationalise and cope with some very hard stuff currently going on in my life.
September 16, 2008 at 2:19 pm
I love your new site, it’s all streamlined and sophisticated and everything.The drawings are excellent and I also like the curtains ever so much.

Hi Mrs. Hall- House is a differential diagnostician/genius/pill popper/grumpy gimp/sherlock holmes- who specializes in Infectious Diseases & Nephrology and yes he does do surgery.
Ok enough about House- more about Not Keith’s work.

[...] Photobucket have censored me some more. If you look at the ‘Greatest Hits’ post, you’ll see it’s a bit of a mess. I’ll have to sort it out at some point. [...]

Bleah: Hello! I’m very flattered and I don’t think you’re a bitch at all. Thank you.

Tentaticle Monster looks like something inspired by Fritz the Cat.

Hi GeologyJoe! I was trying to be Robert Crumb! You must drop by more often.
