Getting paid to draw elfs... Cool!

Fun with tesselations

These were done for a freelance assignment, an editorial piece for a magazine. I had a great time figuring out how to pull it off. In case you were wondering what the heck are tesselations it's the kind of art MC Esher did, and they have some kind of math behind them, which I largely ignored because it makes my head hurt. I think Escher liked the math part though.

T-shirts for the fam

I was asked to do a few designs for our family reunion t-shirt. These were the ones rejected, but the ones I liked the best (of course.) Ok I'll admit the octopus is a bit odd, but I think he is way cool!

I feel like I should apologize for being so lame in neglecting my blog. There has been sort of a perfect storm in my life as of late. Normal things like too much freelance (is that possible?) and our project at work is nearing completion, and not so normal things like Rosemary being diagnosed with cancer. But I have done a few images recently you all might enjoy...... which I shall put up momentarily. BTW Rosemary has a great blog of her own talking about what its like to endure cancer...she also has a real engaging writing style (i think.) Check it out at "My Unintentional Life". You can read her great posts and see some dorky photos of me.

The Bible speaks of Jesus' family, this is one of his brothers, James. James has his own book in the new testament and was the first bishop of Jerusalem.

This is my first sketch I'll try to take it to a finish

sketch 23

I created this image for a client who is always coming up with jobs that never fail to surprise me. I do enjoy them though, because it keeps me on my toes. I thought she turned out pretty good, so I decided to post the image.

found some animal sketches I did a few years ago for a client, thought you might like em.....

Emily wanted to share this illustration of her hamster.

not sure where this guy came from....

My 8 year old daughter Rachel made this really cool picture of a frog eating a bug, she wanted to share it with all of you.... enjoy!

Here's a color sketch of the first spread of the Small Mark book, its a redo of the other one I posted a while back.

I've begun working on "Small Mark" in earnest. I've decided to use "Mary Blair" arms and a warm nose and ears. Any thoughts?

more snow in the forecast

We have been stuck inside all day, too much snow!

I did some cars for a client a few years back, not the kind of thing I normally do but I thought they were pretty cool
