    Ways to take one home

    The original

    The actual sticky note, , signed on the back. Ships flat and insured anywhere in the US, framed if you'd like.

    A print

    Signed prints on heavy matte paper, blown up from a scan so you can see every curl. .

    Your own

    A doodle of your fella, your partner or yourself, drawn the same way. See how commissions work.

    Ask about a piece and I'll hold it for 48 hours while we talk. You can pay by PayPal or invoice. International shipping on request.

    Commissions

    I only take a few at a time so each one gets the love it deserves.

    1. Send the idea. Reference photos, sticky note colour and the vibe, through the form below. I usually crop in on one smaller area, so tell me the part you love most.
    2. Get a quote. I reply with a price and a date. A 50% deposit holds your spot.
    3. See the sketch. You approve a rough before any colour goes down. One round of changes is included.
    4. Receive the original. Pay the balance and it ships to you. Prints of it are available too.

    Everyone drawn must be an adult, and you need permission from anyone whose photo you send. Reference photos stay private and are deleted after delivery. I may turn down any request.

    About

    Hey y'all. I'm squatgnat, and I draw big, hairy, soft-in-the-middle men on sticky notes, down in Alabama.

    I mostly work from reference photos. I crop in on one smaller area, like a belly, a hand or a jockstrap, and stick to drawing what I can see, with a little of my own sprinkled in. Every curl of hair goes down by hand in ink and colored pencil, then come the white highlights and a scatter of confetti.

    Sometimes I pick up the watercolors too. I sell originals and prints, take commissions, and I'm always down to trade with folks who make things.
