“Kids Play . . .” Lacrosse

Featured

One of the last drawings for my “Kids Play . . .” coloring book. (I actually finished the last two images for the book this week, and will be moving to post production).
I originally wasn’t going to include Lacrosse, but I had to many requests for it to ignore!

“Kids Play . . .” cover inks

Featured

Just finished up the inks for the “Kids Play . . .” cover. Still have some work to do on the interior pages, but it’s coming along. This is the first of my (12) coloring books to have its’ own stand alone cover which is not an interior page.

Fossilized mid-idea

Being a “hand draw” artist, I guess this makes me something of a dinosaur! Let’s keep humans in the arts. And I don’t mean the human creating or using AI to steal our work!

Spidey-Man inks . . .

Featured

Fresh off the drawing board – Spidey-Man inks! This was a cover I started during the comic book class I held this Summer. Took a little while to get to this point. Sorry, but I had other deadlines that came first. I will be doing this in full color, too!

Spidey-Man

Featured

Here are the pencils for a parody cover I started, in class, as an example for my students, who were learning drawing for comic books. Yes, we covered your standard ‘adventure’ style drawing and storytelling (plus Manga). But I’ve always been partial to humorous storytelling, in my own work anyway.

You can imagine the thoughts that went through their heads as I demonstrated this 5 point perspective piece. Not to worry, I only made them do a 2 point perspective. Couldn’t have 10-12 years old’s heads exploding! (well, not again)

Inks and color to follow!

Calling Down Da Boom!

Featured

Celebrating 250 years of Freedom! Despite what some people expect you to believe – God brought forth this nation and built it on the principles and precepts of belief in his son Jesus. There is no other way it would be the most prosperous nation on Earth, having raised up more people than ANY other nation in ALL of history!!

Damn Gamalon’s!

Featured

Kids will never again know the anticipation of coming home from school to watch a favorite cartoon – that you couldn’t stream anytime you wanted! Sad. How’re they gonna know how to face those Gamalon’s?

“Kids Play . . . Army!”

Featured

Image from my latest coloring book, “Kids Play . . .” I know, the whole “Army” thing is a bit dated, but it was always fun! At least they’ll like the lego’s

Wanna Bet?

Featured

I’ve been seeing a lot of these commercials for gambling apps lately. Hmmm. Ya think they’re trying to distract us from something?

Making Cereal Boxes GREAT Again!

Featured

Tired of those lame cereal boxes telling you it’s “heart healthy” all over the back, while having something equally lame on the front? Remember the days when the art was fun, and there were games and prizes? Well, here’s your chance!

I will be selling a limited number of prints. I may even have some boxes made up (mailed flat – you fold). Reach out if you’re interested

April Camp class lessons

Featured

As you all know, I draw live caricatures at parties as well. I’ve been asked a number of times in the past couple of weeks if I would do drawing lessons at, say, birthday parties too. Yes, this is something I offer. Kids love it! (I’ve also done it for a company get together or two)

A review: My kiddo is a tough customer so when she says she had a great time and wants to go back for more, you know she really means it! We’re looking forward to signing up for more of Jerry’s classes during the summer sessions.

Happy Easter!

Featured

Easter is the time we celebrate the resurrection of Christ!

But, even now, some people laugh at the misadventures of others
