1.We get up at the crack of dawn to begin working on our cartoons.
2. And we keep on thinking till the sun sets slowly in the West.

3. We are no different than anyone else. We face the infamous "Blank Page."

4. Our little Billy feels that it's always best to begin with him if nothing else works.

5. But that isn't always the best either. Many ideas come and go in the trash.

6. So it's always best to lay back and rest and think about stuff.

7. Now we have to put our heads together and collaborate.

8. Bingo! A brilliant idea has come. So we sharpen our pencils and get our erasers (because we aren't perfect and do change our minds a lot) and pens ready for drawing.

9. Everyone takes turns drawing and Billy puts the final touches on the rough draft.

10. Brownielocks will make sure it's all ready to scan and then be colorized (painted) in Paint Shop Pro before being presented on-line to you. Psst...this is also the same place she makes the ~watercolor backgrounds~ at.

Note: Unlike a lot of cartoons you have seen in the past and today, our cartoons are really digitally made on-line, giving them a rougher line due to the pixels. They are drawn with a mouse (rather than a brush or pen) and colored using a computer program called Paint Shop Pro. Most of the cartoons you see are the originals, as none really do exist on paper (except for a rough draft idea in some cases).
