scary halloween!

Have a fun Halloween and watch out for monsters!

dinner is served

You know that pup is just hoping and praying for her to drop that platter.

giraffe on a moped

it sure beats walking around the sarengeti.

bad hair day

Here's another gif of a flip book I did for Peaceable Kingdom. Once again, working with the talented Derek Beck, I created this fun clip of this little guy having a hair crisis. This one was a lot of fun!

 I did this little spot illustration for Highlights magazine a little while back. It was on a page where kids send in little goofs they've made. This kid showed up to school with his jersey inside-out.

That's nothing-I once showed up to work with a pair of underwear hanging out of my pant leg!

splashdance

Hey everybody! Here is a gif of one of two flip books I did for the folks at Peaceable Kingdom. I teamed up with Derek Beck, who is great to work with and super helpful. I hadn't done a flip book since I was a kid, so I was a little rusty. I'm happy with the way it turned out though- a whole lot better than ones I did as a kid!

stubborn

I know-

I'm a total ass for neglecting my blog...a  bunch of stuff is coming soon. 

vampire vehicle

Okay, I know it's been way too long since I posted anything, but I kinda took the summer off to concentrate on a few big projects and try to get a little fun in when I could. I do have a lot to share, and hopefully I will be a little more on top of things here.

I miss all my talented internet illustrator friends and I will try to come by and check out what you've been up to lately.

Have a great Halloween!

pirate island

Hey everybody! Hope your summer is off to a great start. I'm totally buried in work right now, but hoping to see some light at the end of this tunnel sometime soon. 

I did want to take a second to post this 100 piece pirate puzzle I did for Mudpuppy recently, which is available now. Check it out here.  Now, it's back to work for me...aaaaaaaaargh.

baby animal cards

some card designs I did a while back for new baby...

cma gift shop

I went to the Cleveland Museum of Art yesterday and found my robot play scene in the gift shop
...right between Renoir and Charley Harper!

glasses

...or should they just be called glass?

                                                                            

Fifi Fideaux

Fifi was quite pleased with the job her interior decorator had done on her dog house. 

After all, pink is her favorite color.

robot world

I was going through some of my old files when I realized that I never posted this.

I did this robot vinyl sticker set for Mudpuppy a while back. I love drawing robots.

It was also a lot of fun creating their environment-set in the not too distant future 

when robots rule the world. Well, this world, anyway.

Check 'em out here.

monster guitar t-shirt

 I've been wanting to make t-shirts for a while and finally got around to it. My first design is this little guy, silkscreened in three colors on a buff background. You can pick one up on my Etsy site here. Check it out.

gobble gobble

Dexter always finds that a few cranberry martinis help him get through this particularly stressful holiday.

Hope everyone has a great turkey day! Don't eat (or drink) too much...and don't talk politics at the table. It never turns out well.

happy halloween

                      Have a fun and spooky halloween-don't let those scary things get to you.

walking the dog

Just a couple of pieces I did a while back for Today's Parent magazine. I would love to get a dog, but I'm afraid it would end up looking like the first picture rather than the second one.
