Framed!


My coworker had this professionally framed.
My photography is slightly lackluster (this Canon is toooo fancy if you know what I mean). I was very pleased with the final final.

Baby Cat


I'm working on this image of Baby Cat for my mom and also to display at a few local pet shops (in hopes of boosting Leslie awareness.) After winning some high school art shows with cat pictures I promised myself that I'd draw only people art from now on. I have to admit though, pet pics are still a nice supplemental income.

The Snarkabet




My nephews love (the work of) Eric Carle - and so do I! I got to thinking about making some sorta poster/multi-frame E.C. styled alphabet for them. I was also thinking I'd use it to show different font styles too. I have 26 creatures to make so I thought I'd post my first letter today. F is for Franklin Font & Frog. It's a work in progress.

Fruit Lady

Someone asked me to draw an old-skool art neauveau (sp) type lady carrying fruit for some comic splurp I was working on. I can't remember why, but here she is anyway. Think I'll go back in and color this later.

Griffin


I've been told that this cat looks disturbed in nearly every picture he takes. Possibly due to the large amount of dogs in the house constantly trying to sniff his b*tt. :)

Nicely's


Something I was working on for my friend Scarlet. I haven't really settled on a style yet. Cartoony? Dark? Portraitee?

Perry's



This was a birthday present for a coworkers brother.

2001 RANDOM CELEBS


Illos from the 2001 Sketchbook -




Here's some sketches of me, mom, and larry from my 2001 SB. I was feeling nostalgic last week and decided to dig these books up and start posting some old skool stuff.

Recycled Polar Bears




I drew these for our frozen food theme sales and we didn't end up using them.
So I reworked them with friendship quotes pulled from the four corners of the internet.

Everyone is off today..



So I'm drawing to distract myself from internet abandonment.

Twilight



I'm reading the Twilight Series...so I'm sure these are the first of many Edward Cullen and Bella Swan doodles.

SANDSQUID



I'm working on a patch and logo for a local group of supply soldiers in Afghanistan called the Sand Squids. Here's my early ideas for the patch.. 10 tentacles for each member of the group. Sand color for sand (duh). Weapons = Supplies. Will be adding various other elements over the next few weeks.

Cara



Another freelance dog for my friend Carrie.

"Mavericky"


I was going to pull this piece together around the premise that if the McCain-Palin ticket wins I'd move to Canada. Then I thought, I'm totally NOT moving to Canada or any other country for that matter, so I need to find a way to make this work.

I'm waiting for my magic hilarious quote to come for this illustration, but it's not happening. I tried layering "their" quotes in the background, but they were too boring and long winded to be poignant.

I'm not sure if it's because I'm not good at going negative (ha) or if I am so disturbed by all of McPalin's attacks on MY candidate. SO I'm open to ideas. This illo is not finished yet, so friends - Email me some ideas.

Show me the funny.
