May 2020 Wallpaper: Dandelions
Shaenon: Continuing the theme of drawing things my kid tells me to draw, here’s a wallpaper design with a whole lot of dandelions. I’m also trying to work more with colors I don’t usually use. So: yellow! I like to imagine the team stopping at bucolic, isolated spots around these United States to step out of the giant robot and get some fresh air, and right now that fantasy seems more pleasant than ever.
As usual, if you make a donation in any amount to the Skin Horse Tip Jar, or contribute any amount to our Patreon, we’ll give you a link to this wallpaper, designed for two computer desktop sizes and cell phones. Patreon contributors will continue to receive new wallpaper for the length of their contribution.
As a bonus, you’ll get this May wallpaper from the archives:
As long as we’re all here, let me remind you that for the duration of shelter in place recommendations, all Narbonic and Skin Horse books from the Couscous Store will arrive signed and sketched by me. Thanks, and stay safe!
Channing: Robin has excellent taste! Love the colors in this one.
Only thing missing is Opus. I don’t think Skin Horse has ever had to help a sentient penguin, have they?
Skin Horse must hit the snow temp sometime. Get your ‘sentient’ snow bird, and
train with writing implements. THEN you can GET YOUR PEN-GOIN.
(proper pronounciation)
Except I doubt there’s a lazy PEN that’s EVER roomed with Skin Horse.
Watch it, guys. That’s how they got Dorothy and Toto and the Cowardly Lion…
Taraxacum officinale != Papaver somniferum
I love it when Tip wears Ozma’s poppies.
Not gonna lie, I’m loving Tip and Sweetheart in the field of dandelions, with the Annex One mecha in the background.
