Halloween


another pen and marker drawing

Brain Freeze


a doodle I did while "teaching" my cartooning class
more than one person said it looks like an "I Spy."
Can you find the bumble bee and the pea pod?
Pen and markers.

Cartooning Class


"This is my Sister"
Today was the last day of the summer cartooning class I taught,
this was the winning cover for the first class, ages 6-9.
Note the lobster arm, and flies.
This kid was hilarious.


This is a handout I made,
I just colored it on photoshop
(for fun, because I have photoshop now).

Snails love Sushi


I wouldnt usually put a photo on my sketchblog
but I had to show off the aforementioned snail picnic.
this will be working its way into an illustration soon
or a diorama.
Note the fimiliar rock in the background.

Rock and Feather


I painted this watercolor at Liz's apartment last night,
for this week's Illustration Friday topic, opposites.
finding references is definitely the best part of illustrating

Underwater Kingdom


In commemoration of the snail picnic with Liz,
I submit my underwater kingdom,
painted two weeks ago today
under these same curious circumstances.

The Baptism



I'm using an old painting for my first Illustration Friday entry,
the word "sacrifice" conjured up so much from my childhood...
I couldnt think of a better image, of how I see the tainted word.
Who is being sacrificed, for who... for the peas?
