Kid
This is the type of drawing I always did as a kid. I was stuck in another boring meeting so I cranked this sucker out. I found a cool thing which I'm sure most people know about already. It's called google alert. Just type that in and you can get an e-mail sent to you when some on the web posts something about you. Check it out if you haven't already.

Oddica #6 - Revenge!
Oddica has released a new issue of their free, online magazine featuring the above illustration of Otto, along with new work by Malota, Ray Frenden, and an awesome cover by Erik Abel. If that wasn't enough, Oddica is also having a big Holiday sale allowing you to stockup on fresh t-shirts for yourself or loved ones.
Health Data Management Cover
the cover for health data management this month. it was a very hard topic to illustrate because i had very little to go on and pretty vague. It was about executives, it guys, doctors, nurses, hospital staff working together to find the right mobile software and hardware "solutions" Sounds so exciting right? sometimes you gotta make lemons into lemonade. I gave them 2 versions, one with the paint texture "platform" they're standing on and one without. they ended up going with the platform version.

SFG: b is for...
...Buck O'Neil.
John Jordan "Buck" O'Neil was a first baseman and manager in the Negro Baseball Leagues. In 1937, O'Neil signed with the Memphis Red Sox for their first year of play in the newly-formed Negro American League. His contract was sold to the Kansas City Monarchs the following year. He remained with the Monarchs for the rest of his playing career. O'Neil had a career batting average of .288, including four .300-plus seasons at the plate. In 1946, he led the league in hitting with a .353 average and followed that, in 1947, with a career-best .358 mark. He played in four East-West All-Star games and two Negro League World Series.
In 1948, one year after Jackie Robinson broke the major leagues' color line, O'Neil took over as player/manager of the Monarchs and guided them to two league titles in 1953 and 1955.
O'Neil left the Monarchs following the 1955 season, and in 1956 became a scout for the Chicago Cubs. He was named the first black coach in the major leagues by the Cubs in 1962 and is credited for signing Hall of Fame player Lou Brock to his first contract. After many years with the Cubs, O'Neil became a Kansas City Royals scout in 1988, and was named "Midwest Scout of the Year" in 1998. In 1990, O'Neil led the effort to establish the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City, and served as its honorary board chairman.
Buck served on the Baseball Hall of Fame's Veteran Committee and because of his input, numerous Negro League players were inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame that didn't receive enough votes previously.
When Buck's name appeared on the ballot for induction, he fell one vote short.

Give it up/Give it up/For Buck O'Neil"
