Greece! Rome! Monsters! Art!

I recently received a wonderful email from Rainier,who created this amazing wall hanging
for her son Gabriel. The project was inspired by his interest in Greek mythology,
and by extension, the book that I illustrated titled Greece! Rome! Monsters!
Check out the beautiful bead and fabric renderings of my paintings. I'm very flattered
to have such fantastic skill and effort put into bringing them to life in another medium.
Thanks Rainier, for sharing this cool project!

Don't be a

couch 'tater. You'll regret it later.

The Yggyssey!

I just recieved my first hardback copy
of The Yggyssey by Daniel Pinkwater.
It's the sequel to his amazing novel The Neddiad.
I did the cover art , as well as a small ink illustration for
each of the sixty-nine chapters.

School Cafeteria Food.

Some things never change. Gross school cafeteria food for instance.
Will, a local poet, artist, and all around cool kid sent me this
awesome poem and drawing. "The Mac n' Cheese is made with...
glue! "–you'd think they'd at least use wheat paste,
but Nooooooo!

The Holiday Elephant

December eleventh is traditionally the day when the Holiday Elephant
makes his yearly appearance. Brandishing a pagoda tree
and a bucket of candy canes, he meanders through every town and metropolis
delivering pickled licorice to the fickle populace. Hooray for the Holiday Elephant!

Speaking of Birds...

This is a drawing done for a project called
Los Pajaros del Arcoiris – Rainbow Birds - created by
Foi Jimenez Jurado and Charles Glaubitz.
It's a coloring book that will be sold to raise funds to donate to a
charity of poor and orphaned children in Tijuana, Baja California,
where both artists live.The book will be printed in an edition of 1000,
distributed and put on sale in various locations and art exibitions.
I will post more information when the project is complete
and books are available.
