Hello, I'm Chris Murphy — I specialize in creating engaging, user-centric interactive experiences.

I've been working on a few illustrations over the past few months and recently I've begun a new series. I don't have a lot of spare time on my hands most weeks, so I didn't want to start a project that would consume a lot what time I did have. While doodling this past weekend, I came up with some little icon-like critters that are a blend of Asian caricatures, and elements of north American illustration.
I developed these caricatures as little icons that I could use in place of MSN pictures or avatars on various sites. I don’t really like to use photos of myself, and there are times I just want something that’s a little expressive, fun, and different.
I’ll post more as I develop the series. Let me know what you think!
Edit:
Here are a couple new freakies that I created earlier — I thought I’d update this post rather than generate a new one. I may end up creating a new page altogether for these, but well see.

They are really awesome!
I was thinking about making these kind of creatures too and yours look almost exactly as i imagined them!

Thanks Robert! These are just roughs at the moment, but I’m developing the idea a little further — perhaps next week I’ll have one or two more to show.

I love the creatures, was hoping when i saw you on my feed reader it was to announce the new theme but these are good enough for now
Are these allowed to be used as icons (msn etc.) nothing commercial of course.
