Another made up word. Sorry about the jump on the impending post-Canadian Thanksgiving-Halloween-US Thanksgiving season. I'm more of a last minute shopper even, maybe this drawing is more telling than I realized when I was working on it.

Rejected...
This here is a rejected cartoon for a local paper.
It's meant to convey the similarities between the Hamlet story and Jacob Zuma. The editors decided against it at the 11th hour.... bugger!

Summerhouse
In this Illustration, I tried to recreate a sense of peace and tranquility with the kid playing with a kite.
The vector drawing was made with Corel Draw. Then I used Photoshop to create the mood and color with different layers (screen and overlay).
Sure, the house is not in a normal place... I believe it's a abandoned-ancient-alien-robot. But now it is just the kid's favorite place to play.

Little Village
I would have never thought of going to a place like Salzburg. It was never on my radar. Yun dreamed that one up. But i'm glad I went. It was such a nice compact little place. Not a care in the world. Surrounded by such beauty. There is a giant castle high on a hill overlooking the village. The palce is all lit up at night. Lots of schnapps. I was constantly exhausted from travelling and walking all day. But I did manage to squeeze in a few drawings like this one.
There is a great interview of me by the writer, Susan Henderson on her website. She is one of the best people i've met online. Check it out here. here
Patches-O-Plenty
Here are some of about '135' embroidered patches I've been designing for 'Upper Deck' for use on a baseball card product line. Each patch will be embroidered and applied to a jersey swatch baseball card specific to the player or event. The size on these are just a little bigger then what you see on-screen so the level of detail had to be very simplified which can be tricky. All of them are due by the end of this month so I've been trying to crank out '20' a day among other on going projects so it's been tricky pulling it off.
I really love the sport of baseball so it's always fun working on this type of project.

Revolution
When Yun and I were in Prague we went to the Museum of Communisim. We learned all about how the Czechs finally organized to drive out the russians in 1989. A lot of what happened was the act of a single individual. A student named Jan Palach. He was so disillusioned by lack of freedom and opportunity in his country that in an act of defiance set him set on fire on Wenceslas Square. He died three days later. 800,000 people streamed into the streets to attend his funeral. No one really knew it at the tme but it was the beginning of the end for communism in eastern europe. It would take twenty more years, but his death would again be a catalist for the end of the russian occupation. A handful of college students wanted to mark the anniversary of his death with a vigil. The communists came and beat the students terribly. This time the Czech people took to the streets by the millions and they did not stop until they toppled the government and drove the russians out for good. My friend told me his mother was friends with Jan Palach. I asked her about him but she got too emotional to really talk about him. She said he always spoke about doing something dramatic to protest what was happeneing but she said at the time she just dismissed what he was saying. She was schocked like everyone else when he did it. You can read more about him at http://archiv.radio.cz/palach99/eng/palach.html

Spingle
We went for a walk along a wooded trail yesterday afternoon; that experience, combined with finding a nest this past summer that has a short length of shiny pink gift ribbon woven into it, became the foundation of this drawing which escalated into a crow and a chandelier.

Grey Scale
I saw my friend Butch Belair drawing one day and he used a light grey magic marker. I love how it looked so I gave it a try myself. I like the result. Ordinarily I would crosshatch the shadow. It appears more real this way. It's a nice little tool to add the repertoire. I just got back from a trip to Asia with my wife. I went to South Korea, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Beijing. So as a result there will be a lot of new interesting sketches and stories on the way.

Another new watercolor piece. I start by drawing out the black outline with a Staedler 3.0 pigment liner, I skip the pencil stage. Once I am satisfied that the ink is cured and water proof I startin with the water colors. I go back and add more black after the color has dried. I am still experimenting with these, because I am much more comfortable with acrylic paint, or just plain black and white ink work. It's 4"X6".

The Character That Got Rejected
This is done as my first school assignment for character design class. Actually this was part of my development work for my boss but this design was rejected, but I felt the character was really fun to draw, and had alot of potential. I wanted to play around with him, so here was my chance with my school work.
