Napoleon Huckeby

My son Reece and his best friend Caiden decided to try out for their school talent show this year and do the skit from Napoleon Dynamite. They did a great job and won 3rd place. Yeah, we're kinda proud!

Si & Phil. Duck Commander Cartoon 2

A quick caricature sketch I did in a meeting today. Love the show! More to come on the Duck Men. Willie & Jase soon.

My NEW FAVORITE COMIC!

When I was younger I use to love Bloom County and Calvin & Hobbs. Then came The Far Side but lately I've been hooked on a new comic. It's called Bobo The Evil & Cute. The most amazing thing about it is  that the author is only in the 4th grade.Yeah, I know! This is a piece of fan art I did. Click here to read the comic.

Personalized Magazines

Ever so often I get stuck with wondering what to give as a gift for a birthday or special occasion. When I have the time, a good photo and if I've planned accordingly I might do one of these. The challenge is always making it personal so the headlines you see may not make sense or be funny to you but to the recipient they make perfect sense.  When completed I print them out and mock them up on foam core and display.

Personalized Christmas Cards

Four years ago a friend asked me if I would do a caricature of her and her family and make a Christmas card for her to send out for the year. She got a great response and since then I've done the Boatright's Family Christmas Cards. You can see that each year we pick a new theme and do a photo shoot to match whatever theme they choose. Its a lot of photoshop work but a lot of fun to see the end result. I think the Twilight theme is my favorite so far.

BATMEN Doodles during meeting.

This morning my buddy Justin Eddy and I were trapped in a meeting so we started a doodle page which is fairly common for us. I started by doing the lettering for BATMEN. This is the result of about 45 minutes. Check out his blog post here!

T-Shirts

Here's a couple of new shirts I just designed for my buddies screen printing shop. Ronnie's in Van Buren.  The mascot is the pointer dog and is one of only 3 used in the US. They have used the same art for years on school shirts and signs so I decided to add some new art to the mix and see how its received. The vintage art is available on the green and gray shirts. The dog head will be printed on black and green.

The Mad Art of Caricature

Merry Christmas! I got to open a present early and this is what I got. Tom even signed it for me. This will be my go to book for caricatures and if you or anyone you know has an interest in learning how to draw caricatures I recommend this book. In it Tom shares his secrets to drawing great caricatures for live events, published illustrations, and MAD! Weighing in at over 170 pages and containing over five hundred illustrations, step-by-step techniques, tips, and in-depth theories on the art form, the book is bound to be the definitive book on learning to draw great caricatures.

Waffle House Club Sketch

A couple of sketches from the last meeting. Jonathan Kendall, (Syrup Master) and Scott Kinney (Support Specialist) were kind enough to look towards me for about 10 minutes while I got my kicks. They kick off their North American tour this summer.  Scott is the one with the teeth.

HALLOWEEN PARTY 2011

We had a halloween party 3 years ago and I remember now why we waited 3 years to do it again. It's work!
Thanks to all the friends and neighbors who brought food and donated items. A super BIG THANKS to Jen who helped us pull it all together in the end. We would not have pulled it off without her. The costumes were great and the food was delicious. Overall the zombies ruled this year with a total of about 5 at the party. My 1800's vampire costume may have been a fail since I was guessed to be a magician, Willy Wonka and Abe Lincoln. My teeth however were perfect thanks to Kelly. You may not be able to see clearly in these photos but she made me a real set that custom fit my mouth. I could actually bite and bring blood with these chompers. But I wouldn't.
