An Ode to Wavebeard Wally

He's an old sailor chum and he always smells of fishes

His craft and his trade is the ocean and it's dishes

He doesnt like to walk on the solid solid land

His boat is his home on the ocean oh so grand

Every day on the ocean has affected him just so

That the beard on his face has found a peculiar way to grow

These whiskers in question have formed into the shape of waves

And it's not some parlour trick or the way that he shaves

He rocks the full wave beard and it's pretty darn rad

That's the story of Wavebeard Wally an ocean going lad

And Ode to Jolly Joel

Tropical island's in the sun
That's where Jolly Joel has some fun

Where palm trees rustle in the breeze
And that's where there is no killer bees

Bees of the killer kind just aren't cool
And if you encounter them while sitting by the pool

You should jump in the water and splash around
Maybe those bees won't sting you and you won't be found

I once saw this movie about a girl
Macaulay Culkin was stung and he began to swell

Those stinking bees got him really bad
Then he died and it was fully sad

So what you need to learn after you've had a little cry
Is to stay away from killer bees otherwise you might die

An Ode to Barry the Magic Bison

This bison is big, this bison is great
He's a really nice guy, he'll be your mate

So this is the way the stories been told
Passed through time and history and generations of old

When young in his life while roaming the plain
He stumbled upon a rainbows tail

This rainbows tail contained a pot of gold
And it's magical powers entered his soul

He transformed from brown to many a colour
And his magical powers increased in number

He could fly like a kite and climb like a goat
Run like the wind and float like a boat

He could buzz like a bee and sing like a bird
And he soon became the king of the herd

An Ode to Eden the Enigmatic Elephant

A mystery to one and all

A colourful massive beast

His wonder and his splendour

Spreads from the west to the east

Creator of the rainbow

Colours shot from his trunk

A magical conundrum

More pleasant then a skunk

And where there's rain, and where there's sun

You'll find this jolly beast

Having his lion's share of fun

At his giant moveable feast

And at the end of a long days work

He'll leave a pot of gold

Payment for the Leprechauns

As it has been foretold

An Ode to Dracula Darrell

Dracula Darrell comes from a family

Of bloodsucking monsters ever so scary

He has the skill of shooting beams of energy

Outta his hands and into his enemy

These radiactive lasers, so mutant and deadly

Will vaporize anybody who appears unfriendly

A zap zap here and a zap zap there

My laser beams are gunna give you a scare

That's what he sings when he's zapping away

And his smile so deranged stays around all day

Gary the Goatee Man

Prints available in My Magical Online Shop

An Ode to Gary the Goatee Man

Like JohnTtravolta this goats got style

But he's also deadly, like slipping on a tile

Gary is a mutant, half goat half man 

An unholy abomination, something like spam

He works security at a mutant night spot

Zapping unruly patrons with lasers so hot

He's a grumpy old goat, there aint no changing that

And don't ever try to make him wear a hat

Filthy Flamingo Surf Gang

© Mulga 2012, Filthy Flamingo Surf Gang, Ink on Paper, 30 x 40 cm

This is a piece of art of which I was commissioned to complete for Duvin Design, a Florida based surf lifestyle clothing label. Singlets are currently for sale with this art on it at Duvin Design's shop.

An Ode to the Filthy Flamingo Surf Gang

When a well so deep

Owned by the goons at BP

With oil began to leak

And gush into the sea

The formation of this gang

Did all begin

When this oil so putrid

Had all sunk in

These flamingos were pink

And now they're not

Transformed by stink

And oil so hot

These birds were friendly

Gentle and kind as well

But now they're mean

And they emit a smell

The other birds

Call them stinking greasers

But the flamingos retaliate

And kill all them geese's

They terrorize the coast

And the swamps of Florida

Trashing nests in trees

And strong arming fauna

Thus goes the tale

Of the flamingo surf gang

So filthy and rough

You better believe it mang

Lion Hat Leigh

© Mulga 2012, Lion Hat Leigh, Posca on Paper, 42 x 59 cm

An Ode to Lion Hat Leigh

Lion hat Leigh lives high in a tree

His Beard turned green, a sight to be seen

Because of his hat he's chief of the tribe

He's also very muscly, of this is do not lie

His hat was once a lion of the mountain kind

The taste of human flesh, it really did not mind

One night this lion it did pounce on Leigh

As he lay in his sleep he got bit on the knee

Then Leigh arose and battled this lion

Gave it a head butt and then it lay dying

He picked it up and put it on his head

Then lay back down to sleep in his bed

Captain Laramie Lion

I was commissioned to draw this for Duvin Design, a Florida based surf clothing company.

An Ode to Captain Laramie Lion

Captain Laramie the Lion

Never felt at peace

On the plains of Africa

As much as the seas

The odd one out

He favoured the fish

Over the buffalo

As his favourite dish

His journey began

The day he was caught

By illegal poachers

From Somewhere up north

Locked in a cage

And put upon a ship

Laramie picked the lock

And gave them the slip

He ate every man

Upon that boat

And became the captain

And wore the captain's coat

When he reached a port

He assemble a crew

A motley bunch

Drunk from too much brew

From that day forward

Laramie road the waves with ease

No longer king of the jungle

He was now king of the seas

Time Keeper Timmy

© Mulga 2012, Time Keeper Timmy, Ink on Paper and digitally coloured, 15 x 21 cm

An Ode to Time Keeper Timmy

Time Keeper Timmy was a punctual chap

He was never once late even when he had a flat

The sands of time slip through the hourglass

With this in mind everything he did he did really fast

He high fived instead of shook and ran instead of walked

His thoughts were double speed, he even rapped instead of talked

Running across the road he got hit by a car

Broke both his legs and was stuck in bed with a cast

For Timmy time seemed to slow to a shuddering halt

He had no place to go and no way he could bolt

So he got himself the Sunday newspaper

And mastered the force like the dark lord Vader

Larry the Lion King

An Ode to Larry the Lion King

Larry the Lion King

Just likes to say rah

He says it so much 

He sounds like a galah

Down at the shops

And up on the hill

It's over the top

He sounds like a dill

It's rah this 

And rah that

Can I have a burger 

And some rah with that

That's what he says

When he goes to lunch

His friend got so angry

He gave him a punch

Zombie Reece

An Ode To Zombie Reece

His name is Reece and he had a beard

So damn bushy and so revered

Then one day he made a decision

To cut that beard with a blade of precision

Everyone was sad and asked him why

He simply said "It was hot and in the summer I'll fry"

An Ode To Rodney Ropebeard

Rope Beard Rodney is an old sea salt
His poison of choice is whiskey and malt

He nearly met his maker, sent by Moby Slick
The great grand whale of Moby Dick

This whale was a zombie beast stained red
From the blood of the men upon which it has fed

Rodney tried to harpoon this deathly whale
But the odds were against him he was doomed to fail

It's skin was as strong as a golden orbs web
Harpoons were useless even to the head

Moby Slick devoured the entire stinking crew
Gobbled them up like some putrid human stew

Rodney did escape and he'll tell you the tale
Of his high seas adventure with Moby Slick the whale

Harry the Headphone Hipster

© Mulga 2012, Harry the Headphone Hipster, Acrylic on Canvas,30 x 40 cm

This is a recent commission I completed.

An Ode to Harry the Headphone Hipster

Hipster Harry liked the song
That was sung from his beard
He listened in all day long
Until he turned so weird

His hair turned a tone of green
His nose a shade of yellow
His moustache curled towards the sky
And his eyes became all mellow

He floated in the cloud of buzz
That his DJ beard turned out
Thus became his magic facial fuzz
As colourful as a trout

Green and blue and blue and green
Like the colours of the sea
Orange, pink and yellow
And anything in between

Roll up your trousers
Grab some loafers
Grow that fringe all out
Don some over sized headphones
And do the hipster flout

Gary the Gorilla will be sitting in my sketchbook which will be at the Good Jelly sketchbook exhibition on the 3rd of September at Wollongong. 

There will be 29 other pages with Gary's friends in the sketchbook. Yew!

An Ode to Gary the Gorilla

Gary is a Gorilla

A big beast of a thing

He lives in Manilla

He loves to sing

He is a superstar in Manilla

The biggest ape in town

He drinks a milkshake of vanilla

He can kill with his frown

Some call him the Gorilla Beiber

For his fame and his songs

The female chimps really love him

Even though he wears thongs

Did you know Ned Kelly was a hipster?

This drawing is based on a photo of him the day before his execution and I was struck by how fashionable he would look today. He would fit right in with the hipster vibe.

An Ode to Ned Kelly the Hipster Bushranger

A hipster was Ned Kelly

A notorious bushy ranger too

His favorite food was jelly

He rocked a hipster do

Snake Turban Steve

An Ode to Snake Turban Steve

Snake Turban Steve is a weird and dangerous chap

His headwear of choice is the deadliest form of hat

If you give him any cheek his serpent will pluck out your eye

Then the beast's deadly venom will make you slowly die

But if you carry a flute you know you'll be alright

The snake will be yours and you'll have no fight

Rastabeard Skate deck

© Mulga 2012, RastaBeard Skate deck, Acrylic and Posca on skateboard

This is a skate deck I painted for my buddy Jerry, it is a rastaman just like Jerry. I call it Rastabeard.

An Ode to Rastabeard

Rastabeard is a jolly chap
With a smile on his face
And hands that clap
Like home there is no place

Where good times cannot be had
Singing and jiving all night long
Always happy and never sad
Rastabeard is full of song
