(sketch) Cigarette Warnings Preview

A current project I am working on is painting cartoons of the Canadian cigarette warnings on actual cigarette packages. I collected the 16 Next International, king sized, exceptionally smooth, 20 packs. These are the drawings that will be used.







CIGARETTES ARE HIGHLY ADDICTIVE

















TOBACCO USE CAN MAKE YOU IMPOTENT

















EACH YEAR THE EQUIVALENT OF A SMALL CITY DIES FROM TOBACCO USE


















CIGARETTES CAUSE LUNG CANCER


















CIGARETTES CAUSE STROKES



















CIGARETTES CAUSE MOUTH DISEASES

















CIGARETTES HURT BABIES


















IDLE BUT DEADLY


















WHERE THERE'S SMOKE THERE'S HYDROGEN CYANIDE


















CIGARETTES ARE A HEARTBREAKER


















DON'T POISON US


















CHILDREN SEE CHILDREN DO


















CIGARETTES CAUSE LUNG CANCER
that's right there are 2 different packs with this same warning

















TOBACCO SMOKE HURTS BABIES


















CIGARETTES LEAVE YOU BREATHLESS


















YOUR NOT THE ONLY ONE SMOKING THIS CIGARETTE

(sketch) A Freindly Reminder part 4

On my way to work the other day I saw a sign that said "watch for children." I couldn't help thinking what a fair trade.
Here are some more reminder slips. Mostly chicken.

(sketch) A Freindly Reminder part 3

At times, when the kitchen is slow and the dishes are done, conversations about the strangest things arise. One such day, on the topic of music, the song Detachable Penis was brought up. Strange tune about a man who wakes up to find his penis missing. Ouch I know but don't worry it happens all the time because it is detachable. Nice tune.


at this point the accordion of reminder slips was in my opinion getting too long so i started another row

Here is more of those helpful reminder slips. No chicken or bacon can be forgotten with one of these bad boys there to slap you in the face while screaming "WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME GRANDMA!!!" as loudly as possible. Try it, I dare you.

(sketch) A Freindly Reminder part 1

While working in the kitchen there are times while doing prep-work and making the food orders where you need to remind yourself that things are in the oven. Some people will put a blank paper up with the order slips, others will write down what is in the oven. Me, I have gotten into the habit of drawing it instead. Here are some of those drawings, more to come. Like a shit load more.
