ReplyDelete+2 FOR ME!
ReplyDeleteI've been following your blog for quite some time now, and I truly love your artwork.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'm finally not Anonymous anymore!
Pacific! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWe all know the skulldugery is to be had in the Indian Ocean. This is strange, but I totally hear sound looking between the two images. Nice jump cut, man.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to go with Arctic Ocean just because I like the way the word arctic sounds. Really hope I win this one as I've been eyeing that drawing when it was on your etsy page!
ReplyDeleteWell, one day I'll be living in a country on the Indian Ocean :) Good work Cory!
ReplyDeleteThe Pacific . . . it's so vast.
ReplyDeleteI love the Atlantic Ocean. I was looking at it this morning :)
ReplyDeleteI like oceans. I think I like the way Pacific sounds, but I've only ever been to the Atlantic. The Mediterranean is an awesome name if only it was an ocean!
ReplyDeleteHope that the science partner has recovered from the initial shock of today's subject.
North sea. Pretty cold and stormy. Good for weltschmerz.
ReplyDeleteYour gifts are getting better and better! What can we expect for tomorrow?!
Both of these are awesome. The print reminds me of Van Gogh's "Man with Poplars."
ReplyDeleteNice work, Godbey!
ReplyDeleteMy ULTIMATE favorite body of water is THE RED SEA.
I love all the oceans. Don't think I could pick a favorite, there are too many great things about each of them.
ReplyDeleteOh man! I love this sketch! So cool.
ReplyDeleteMy fav ocean would have to be the Arctic Ocean. What a great name! It even sound cold :).
I like the Atlantic. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the Pacific and the pieces you are giving away today. Great work.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to go with the Indian Ocean.
ReplyDeleteCount me in again!
ReplyDeletePoseidon's ocean.
ReplyDeleteI like the Atlantic, more specifically, the Gulf of Mexico. If it's possible to fall in love with a place, I have... on the Island, Isla Mujeres off the tip of Mexico.
ReplyDeleteEnjoying your work!
This is for my daughter.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!
Another great give away... and your cat is too funny!
ReplyDeleteNot a big ocean fan either, but I've always wanted to meet a real live polar bear, so I will say the Arctic.
"I want that"
ReplyDeletethese are beautiful! i've also been following your blog for quite some time. your art stirs something deep within me:)
ReplyDeletemy daughters always enjoy spending time with your work as well. (we love Ticket!)and you've inspired my husband to try some watercolor!
all that to say...thank you for doing what you do! you do it brilliantly!
The Atlantic is fantastic
ReplyDeleteI've got to give it up to the Atlantic, because I live on the east coast of the US and it's always been there for me.
ReplyDeleteLove your stuff! Following everything you are working on... Ticket has got to be the best book I've purchased in years, and your Terrible Yellow Eyes blog was truly inspiring!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the fantastic work!
Arden needs this in her nursery. Think of my child, Cory....
ReplyDeleteAnyway, my favorite ocean today is the Pacific because I'm currently staring out my window at it and man, is it gorgeous: grey with just the right amount of fog and giant, angry waves crashing on the rocks down at the point.
Oh awesome!
ReplyDeleteOceanus Procellarum
Thanks Cory.
-Steven
it occurred to me that the animals are swimming around in the water in the oceans in our bodies and another had been found another ocean on the planet given that our blood is just like the Atlantic
ReplyDeleteAnd how
I love this drawing!
I like the Pacific Ocean. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been a regular reader of your blog, and I just have to say that your work is just wonderful. Keep up the lovely work.
I have lived long in Tenerife (Canary Islands) and I must say that the cold water of the Atlantic Ocean revives the dead...
ReplyDeleteI love the water there.
Atlantic is the only one i ever saw, so I'll go with it.
ReplyDeleteAnd these drawings are brilliant...
i thoroughly enjoyed Oceans 11,12 and 13.
ReplyDeletemarianer depths for me. love ur drawings.
ReplyDeleteLong time lurker, first time poster :) Really enjoy your artwork, very inspiring!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite ocean would be the Pacific, for all its vastness and mystery. If it could be any body of water, i'd have to say the Mediterranean. Clear turquoise waters, beautiful marine life, gorgeous beaches... aaaah why is it still winter????
Pacific...but it's the only one I've ever met.
ReplyDeleteGreat work. I love it.
Ohh, I want it!! It's really nice!!
ReplyDeleteAtlantic or Pacific...it's like comparing apples to oranges, and I love them both!
ReplyDeleteAlso love these pieces!
oh boy oh boy oh boy! Lucky day if this lands in my mailbox some day!
ReplyDeleteFavorite ocean...probably the pacific...surfs up.
Ohhh I love your Grimm illustrations, so I'm emerging from lurk-dom and leaving a comment. Favorite ocean... I suppose Atlantic, but if i were to expand and consider seas as well, I'd say Mediterranean. :)
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteThe pacific fer shure!
ReplyDeletearctic ocean, because I'll probably never see it. Great work!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture! The Atlantic is my favorite because it's where I grew up.
ReplyDeletePacific. :] I
ReplyDeleteSweet pic too. Really like the Ivan final photo too
I've always been fond of the Atlantic.
ReplyDeleteI love the Ohshin Ocean.
ReplyDeleteRocking the Atlantic.
ReplyDeleteThe Atlantic, definately. Though it seems like the Indian ocean is often overlooked....
ReplyDeleteGreat work, man!
Ok, so I was all excited because I didn't see any posts on your blog. I thought SWEET, I'll definitely win this one... which was so cool because I think this one is awesome. Aaand then I realized I was on your FB account.
ReplyDeleteBut anyway, thanks for doing this. It just makes me happy. *crossing fingers, hoping I'll win*
PS-Pacific
Atlantic ocean, only one I've seen so far...
ReplyDeleteI love the Atlantic Ocean. Especially around the Caribbean, where the water is crystal clear. :D
ReplyDeleteU R the BOMB!
ReplyDeleteThis is a sweet one! I'll have to say the Indian Ocean.
ReplyDeleteHm, I think I'd like the Indian Ocean the best, but I've never seen it. :-) Come to think of it, I've only seen the Atlantic from 30,000 feet (or so).
ReplyDeleteI love your work! I have several prints from your Grimm collection, but not Ivan and the Firebird... (So maybe it's not fair that I'm entering?)
Are you planning to sell prints of your Mario pieces? I love 'em!!
I am a fan of the Southern Ocean, but the Atlantic is home.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Firebird!!!! And if I were randomly selected to be the recipient, I know that Brenna would steal this in a heartbeat and put it in a place of honor in her room. Btw, my favorite ocean is the Pacific.
ReplyDeleteKat
Atlantic! Thanks for the contest.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great drawing!
ReplyDeleteAwesome work yet again, dude!
ReplyDeleteahhhhhhh WANT!!!

ReplyDeleteWhichever ocean Ponyo lives in makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteYour artwork is great!!! My sister has two of your pictures in her house, one of a mole reading in a big blue armchair and one of a tree and a girl having "tea"---keep it up, they are all beautiful. Someday I will get me one, too!
