Inktober Day 29 Surprise

I have to admit, I pondered upon this for awhile.  I figured there would be a lot of people doing a surprise party or a birthday gift, I mean, that was my immediate thought.  All along I have wanted to interpret these words in my own way.  Here's when a surprise might not always be a pleasant one.

Unbeknownst to Carlo

Unbeknownst to Carlo, his ex-girlfriend had just been hired at his favorite barbershop.

This was actually Day 35, "Unbeknowst to Carlo," but remember, I'm still catching up posting about 20 more pictures, and since then, I've posted current paintings, and well, I think I'm just going to give up on the number game--I'm all out of order now, and really, you don't mind, do you?  I fear I've been scrambling your mind by listing a day number then not.  So, I hereby decree, I'm stamping out the confusion, and just posting creations!

Richard Had to Buy a Baby Lawnmower to Keep Up with His Haircuts

Richard was blessed with fast-growing hair, but it was a curse as well.  It was like he had rows of premium sod adhered to his scalp.  He was starting to run out of money just to keep up with a presentable appearance.  He liked his barber, but he didn't want to hand over his entire paycheck each week!  Instead, Richard resorted to buying a baby lawnmower and started to groom himself.
