From the vault!

These are pieces that were created back around 95-97 when I first started to really get serious about gaining new freelance work. The illustration of the lady on the street was influenced by the style of Eric Brace who is a Hallmark artist as well as a children's book illustrator. (It's no where near the level of his work!)

Random stuff

Photo Caricatures-Arnold, George & Dan

This is a photo caricature style I came up with in order to try and stand out in a rack dominated by hand drawn caricatures of the typical greeting card characters. First was Arnold then Dan and finally Bush. I like the way they turned out.

Grumpy Great White Shark

My favorite subject to draw, the shark! I started drawing sharks at the age of 5 and still to this day never tire of their shape. I plan to blogart a whole series of sharks soon. Hold me to it!!!

Crazy Dog

Dodo Bird Creature

This started out as a simple study on the beak of the dodo bird and then I started improvising. It's one of my favorite sketches. I'm not sure what the body would look like. Maybe I'll go in eventually and finish it but for now I think I like not knowing.

King of the Doo Hickies

T-Shirt Design

If your last name is Korman and you're having a family reunion in Kansas City, this is what your t-shirt might look like. I did a total of 3 designs for them to choose from, the 3rd design that they chose is not shown.

Cartoon for Greeting Card

Series of Birds

Not the Cloverfield Monster

I guess I have to hand it to JJ for his latest monster movie! I'll try not to ruin the movie for those who have yet to see it. Cloverfield has likely made many moviegoers lose their popcorn mid-way through due to the hand held look of the film but if you can make it through that part you'll get a real life monster treat! It was the perfect amount of Monster for the money! Just enough to make me believe and cause me to obsess about it all night until I start a monster doodle of my own in hopes of getting the thing out of my head for a while. While this is in no way the monster from Cloverfield, it was 95% inspired by.

T-shirt Logo

This is a recent design I did for a friend. Something to do with selling Tyson chicken. ? I like the design.
