Been playing with the Manga Studio again and decided to work up one of my favorite books about my favorite city.  Confederacy of Dunce is not only a funny book, it's set in the New Orleans I grew up in and no longer exist.  this is just for the old portfolio but I plan on having some fun.

Doug of the Dead 2

I'm not really drawing much anymore, it seems the ordinary chores of the day are sucking the time away from the drawing table.  When the kids get back to school next week I may try to get back into the swing of things, but I make no promises here.  This drawing is a special job for my good friend Doug on his birthday.

My old friend Doug came over from Tulsa and spent the week with me and drove me around while I recovered from some surgery.  He mentioned that he was a member of the Zombie Squad in Tulsa and I thought he would get a kick outta' this one.

Things are good here, the weather is getting milder and wetter and we are settling into the fall routine.  Here is the fall poster for Donna so she can gallivant around the country in style.

I can't believe that I ever tried to post one drawing or cartoon a day on this blog!  Hell, I'm lucky to maybe get one a month on here.  It is too easy to blame the kids or any one specific thing,,,except, OK, I will say it,  the laundry.  Here, that's a load of my chest,,,get it, a load,,,,sorry.  I spend more time, washing, folding, hanging and looking for hidden clothes than any other thing in my day!  And to make matters worse, Madeline and Leslie's clothes now all look the same to me so I'm never sure who's shirt or undies makes into the right drawers.  At least the dogs still hang out with me.  Here's another rabbit poster, maybe they will one day be my "Blue Dog",  naw, I didn't think so either.

another Bunnies Poster

If you are wondering if these are the only guys I'm working with these days the answer would be; yeah.  So much going on these days at the casa, not to mention my new career as a soccer manager and treasurer (can you believe these people gave me the money?).  This going to be a big show at a really well known venue here in Nashville.  Cool weather is coming right? right?

bunnie's moondance

I'm still playing with photoshop and using the wacom pad to go totally paperless.  There are some advantanges but it does seem to take forever to get an image down.  There is an art to drawing on one surface and looking up on a computer monitor to see the image form.  I will  more than likely turn this into a gigposter for the Bunnies.  Hope all are well!

well, it's be a long hot summer and to top it off, instead of drawing, which yours truely is suppose to be doing daily, I got wrangled into being the kids soccer team manager and treasurer!!!!  what a time destroyer this has turned out to be!  Here is another Bunnies poster, thanks miss Donna and have a great time in Chicago!  May have a line out to storyboard a real film, more as that develops!

new poster

I am having a very unproductive Winter this year!  It's been too cold, the kids too grumpy and the house too dirty to get any real work done.  To those of you awaiting any work, all I can say is that I'm getting more motivated  and the increasing temps only help!  This is the latest work for the Divine Miss D, who will use this as her main poster this year.  Spring is almost here, and with it, I just might get something done.
Thanks, d

 Here is an experiment using some new software called Manga Studio.

 I know I haven't been on here in a while and I'll just go ahead and plead the 5th!  Too much going on around the house, and a few recent trips outta' town; you look up and it's almost Christmas time.  I have a line on illustrating a children's book  and this is the first concept art for it.  Still not sure about this gig as of yet and hope  this matches what the author is thinking.  I missed the filming of a short film I storyboarded today in Nashville to get this done so, I hope it's for real.  Outdoor soccer is almost over for the year and I'm glad, been freezing my butt off over the last few weeks.  Hope all have a great Thanksgiving!

 Been offline for awhile, due to mild illness, trying to get back into the swing of things. Got some new software to learn , the new Mangastudio, looks like a lot of fun with all the zipatone options I wish Photoshop had!!!  Hope to publish some of that stuff soon.  Here is a recent poster for my friends, the Bunnies.

 New poster for my friend Donna Frost here in Nashville for a gig in Austin, Tx.   They want to go another direction, so this is not the one we will be using.

Zachfest 2010

I did a series of birthday party flyer's for years for some great friends for their son Zach, who has now, much to the displeasure of his mother gone and grown up. I haven't done one of these for years, but seeing as how he's grown up and all, I'd try one more attempt.
