Donald Duck

After a recent trip to Walt Disney World, my interest in classic Disney characters was rekindled. Here is one of the ideas I had while visiting the Magic Kingdom. Everyone's favorite, ill-tempered waterfowl.

Happy 110th Birthday to Dr. Suess!

Yesterday was the legendary genius Ted (Dr. Suess) Geisel's 110th birthday. To celebrate the birth of one of my all-time favorite authors and illustrators, I drew one of the enthusiastic Harvard Club members from 1948's "Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose".

Support for Stan and Sharon Sakai

This is a piece I recently illustrated to benefit Usagi Yojimbo creator Stan Sakai and his wife Sharon. They both recently lost their grandson, and have also been struggling with Sharon's debilitating illness which has let to costly medications and around the clock care.

Here is the link to the information…

I've always been a fan of Stan's work and wanted to donate something for the Cartoon Art Professional Society auction and fundraiser. I met him years ago at a comic book convention and he was a very friendly and approachable individual.

I created this traditionally with India Ink and watercolor.

Merry Christmas 2013! I wish you the happiest of holidays and a great 2014. This is my latest Christmas card. I always wanted to draw a tree-lot theme. I have lots of good memories getting trees when I was a kid. Now I have a fake tree, but I still look driving past the lots for nostalgic reasons.

Santa Stowaways-2012 Christmas Card

This is a slightly color tweaked version of my Christmas Card artwork from 2012. A few people told me that Santa's face scared their kids. This was also the second time I drew it. I wonder if they know about the Krampus?

Birthday Invite Artwork

This was the artwork for my daughter's 5th birthday invite last year. Sadly this year we did not print a formal invitation (which just goes out to our immediate family). But it is nice to have the invitations as a keepsake for each year. I'll still have to draw one for this year but it will be a bit late.

Happy Moose

Here is my happy moose mascot that is going to babysit my old website for a while. This guy previously had a different head and shoulders on him. I opted to make him happier, and a little less sharp-edged. Drawn with India ink and colored via Photoshop.
