HE! HE!! Love the illo!! Fun characters and story moment.

Too funny. The chef's hat and the spatula really seal that poor critter's fate.

Good one! I like the look on the little guy's face...as he begins to sense something is not quite right.

Me gusta mucho el trazo del lápiz y, mirando tu estudio, he comprendido por qué tu estilo es tan acogedor; escogiendo para dibujar una mesa como la tuya el resultado sólo puede ser extraordinario. Felicidades por tu trabajo.

Fantastic! A great twist on the neighbor's barbecue theme. And wonderful art as well. I love your style.

AAHHHHHH! This is me screaming because this is so cute, it's making me curl up in the fetus position. Great job!

I had a neighbor like that! This is really excellent!

spacedlaw said...

Oh I LOVE this one !
It speaks volume, both funny and terrifying.
And anybody who had a nasty neighbour can feel for your little reader.

Mmmm ... makes me hungry!

Phil said...

Demonic laughter ran through my head when I looked at this illustration. Awesome.

The Asker said...

This is awesome (as are most of your illustrations). I was trying to come up with some witty caption about how fences can sometimes be a very good thing, but I'm sure Gary Larson beat me to it many years ago!
Love this entry though!

Til Vogt said...

Awesome! Fun, great characters, colors, overall style. One of my alltime favorites!!!
Is this in any of your books?

Matt Phelan said...

Hi, Til! The neighbors picture was done for Illustration Friday (I always try to do something new for the topic rather than recycle). Glad you like it!
