Still kicking...


Howdy. I've been juggling five illustration jobs, so things have been busy. It's funny how the work comes in waves. There on the right is a logo I created for a family show written by Scott Martin. It takes place at a camp in 1938 where folks get freaked out over Orson Welles' War of the Worlds broadcast.

In addition to the Little Green Men, I've also been fielding adjustments to the Clean Riverside comic/coloring book. And I'm working on nailing down contract details and rough sketch ideas for an online book cover. I also did a little doodle for Musical Theatre Guild's upcoming reading of Out of This World – a caricature of a lead actor as a Greek god that will be blown up and used as a set piece.

And then there's a job that's sort of out of the norm for me. I'll be appearing at the John Wayne Cancer Foundation's Odyssey Ball at the Beverly Hilton Hotel tomorrow. Following a New York theme, the entertainment will include dancers, singers, and, as requested by the client, a chalk artist. I know... I don't usually work in chalk. But I've created a piece (also requested by the client) representing the Strawberry Fields mosaic in Central Park. I'll be putting the final touches on the piece and drawing something else at the cocktail party, so I look forward to a new adventure. After the gig I'll post my musings as well as a photo of the art.

Well, that's it for now. It's a lot, but I don't think I'd have it any other way. Take care, all! Peace & love.
