This illustration is taken from a photo from a social media connection posted early in his Instagram development. I saw it and, as with many of my other illustrations, was inspired to reproduce it. I loved the feel of camaraderie, the youth, the feeling of future and a look of wonder… All in [...]
This is one of those illustrations that never seems to be done… until now … 🤓 I finally love it! I started it about 2 years ago and it’s seen a variety of iterations including color and graphics . None of them seemed to hit where I wanted the illustration to go. I wanted a [...]

There’s something special about the movie A Christmas Story. In many ways, I identify with Ralphie and his fantastic world of imagination. The family is nothing but love and insanity (as mine was at that age). And we all know, as parents, it’s all a guess at best and sometimes aunt Clara’s god awful pink [...]
I just wanted to share this again. When I’d originally illustrated it, Beto O'Rourke was just another candidate I admired for his tenacity and willingness to fight a good fight. Now, it means something more. I haven’t done a lot of illustration lately. I illustrate people and things that inspire or move me. Unfortunately not [...]

Derphead Humpday Cartoon Mess #Humpday #doodletimebrings some kind of Human-Alien mish-mash ... I had about 5 ideas rolling around my head and I think all of them just kind of spewed out at the same time. I also tried to work in a specific, more muted, color palate... some complimentary colors and a build of triads [...]
