A Geek Discovers Girls


I'm catching up with my Illustration Friday illos and posting them with the date of the challenge so they fall in order. I'm coloring Moon and Poem right now but here is a theme combo I just finished - Geek and Discovery. This isn't me but I can so relate to being a geek and discovering girls for the first time. The girl is actually a caricature of the first girl I had a crush on. Oh, man, I'm sweating and shaking just thinking about it...

Love your geek Mike. Its funny how we both saw our geeks as red headed and glasses. Must say that first crush girl is kinda cute. Course right now Im on antibiotics so it might be the drugs talking.
