found art 2

Here is another sketch I found within a folder of a job I was working on back in 2003. The job was for a prep school in Manhattan and the project was to design a mascot for the middle athletic department. I will be posting about that next and showing some of the sketches that lead up to a "cute wolverine".

In the meantime, please enjoy this sketch of the baddest asses ever penciled on to paper (what is up with that bulbous feathered freak?).

The Devil

According to an old story devil was looking at Gods creating process and got jealous. He tried to do something similar but didn't succeed and a bat was the only result of his efforts. Unhappy with the result he decided that a bat would fly only during the night so nobody would see it. (ESS newspaper)

Super Alphabet launched! :D

Hi everyone! I've started a new project on Kickstarter. It's my new kids picture book "Super Alphabet". Please stop by and take a look. I would greatly appreciate in advance if you contribute but I totally understand if money is tight. If you could take a few minutes to post the link to other sites and possibly send it to friends who might be interested, that would help greatly and you would have my undying appreciation. Keeping my fingers crossed and working on the text for the interior of the book.
Here's the link:

Thanks,

Found art?

I have no idea why I drew this. I'm cleaning my office and rearranging the furniture and this is what I found in one of my old illustration folders. I'm totally perplexed.

As I go through my office I think I will post more FOUND ILLOS.

Typographic Prints by Gemma Robinson

When not busy illustrating, Nottingham based designer and illustrator Gemma Robinson likes to torture herself by cutting teeny tiny little letters into lino. These lino cuts are then individually inked and printed by hand to produce a small range of handmade typographic prints, now on sale from Gemma’s Etsy shop. View the full range here.

Matte Painting

In the last two years i've done around 40 book covers, many of them as Matte paintings. This is actually the first one I'm doing for myself. It didn't take that long, I didn't start with a particular goal, I just went with the flow as the image progressed itself.

Here's a drawing from a 15 minute sketch challenge two weeks ago! Summer in the Pacific Northwest this year has been coming in fits and starts but not staying. We have more clouds than sun. This is my attempt to visual who is causing this problem... at least from a metaphoric pov...
Hope you dig it!
