Iron Heart Coaster - World Tour 2010-2012

[Katsushin]

Kannon, Japanese bodhisattva of compassion (for a client's back).
Like many things in Japanese buddhism, she was adapted from Chinese culture via India before that…
(Sort of like an eastern Virgin Mary vibe)

[Katsushin]

Aaaaaand quitting time…
(One on the left is mine)

For a coworker with such similar tastes in clothing, our beer preferences couldn't be farther apart…

Awesome sketch, and awesome pics!

It sucks you have to limit yourself…

Did jump day sprain your back?

[Katsushin]

^^^ Almost.
My dad fell off the top of a ladder I was holding and I caught him and absorbed his fall while imploding the lower portion of my back…

[nameness]

Someday I hope my kid likes me enough to do the same, good on you.

Hope your back gets better soon, take your time.  Back trouble is nasty business.

@Katsushin:

our beer beverage preferences couldn't be farther apart…

The difference is that you are drinking beer…........

[Beatle]

[premo]

Really like the drawing, cool update.

[Katsushin]

Seriously makes a great pot holder too…

[Katsushin]

Gonna make him start wiping off his paws before coming inside now…

[Beatle]

[elclintor]

Get em dirty!

[Geo]

great start to your tour section Kat - some awesome pics . . . love the pot-holder idea and the pimped-up doggie

plus WOW on the sketch . . . you have some great skills . . . i'm guessing that was pre-beer? 

[Katsushin]

Thanks man.
And yup, no drinking and drawing.
A slightly more finished version here…

[Katsushin]
