Hello! Here is a new illustration I just did. I hope you enjoy it. The background texture is a combination of syrup and powdered sugar on a transparency sheet that I made on my scanner. After I ate breakfast, I spent about 2 hours making textures from all sorts of food and objects.

Banjo Pigs! Artist Challenge

During the last 2 weeks or so, many illustrators have been drawing pigs with banjos. Guy Francis began this challenge and many artists have contributed their banjo pig illustrations. Here are a few of mine so far. The first is a biker pig dude and the second was a fun name request by Chris Gilbert. I challenge you to make your own banjo pig and show it!

Observation Comic: A couple weeks ago, I spotted some twins that were a little too old to be dressed alike so I thought of this and sketched it.

School Visit in Argentina

A week ago I traveled to Buenos Aires, Argentina to visit a friend who now lives there. While there, I taught the kids at his school how to draw and also showed them some of my art. I had a great time seeing the kids enjoy drawing. Here are some of their characters below. I showed them how to use their imaginations and illustrate the story that they were reading in class.

Great work by the kids, huh? It is fun to see their styles and the characters they make just out of basic shapes. Can you find the random Cyclops on some drawings?
