This is Slick; she wants to say Happy New Year! She is a snake I created when I was 15. I started with Sprout and decided he needed a gang of friends. I went through auditions with characters, call backs, and finally chose the cast of 7. This picture is missing a couple of people.Continue reading “Happy Lunar New Year!”

Spinosaurus
This page was sadly neglected in my sketchbook. I drew this image out early in my sketchbook planning. However, because I had left so many pages to complete close to deadline I put all of my focus into developing and completeing ideas for those. Then I ran out of time to go back and finishContinue reading “Spinosaurus”
A Sketchbook Welcome
Welcoming you to my sketchbook is this pink little T Rex, giving you the biggest smile he can. Something compels me to make Dinosaurs pink or magenta. I don’t know what it is. I especially liked the idea of a Pink Tyrannosaurus Rex since they are the kings of the jungle. —I heard at oneContinue reading “A Sketchbook Welcome”
Sketchbook Project 2013 Delivered!
January 15, the day the 2013 Sketchbook Project had to be postmarked, came upon me so quickly; it was almost as bad as the eminently approaching Christmas Time. As passing years have gotten me used to properly planning for Christmas I am still not used to a looming deadline just two weeks after it. MyContinue reading “Sketchbook Project 2013 Delivered!”

Specimens and Animals in Alphabet at APE 2012
We have been settling in the past couple of months and I have only had time to draw a little. This little time has been spent sketching characters from other books for Alphabooks! You can view those over on my tumblr. I am hoping that after October I am able to get back to myContinue reading “Specimens and Animals in Alphabet at APE 2012”

Miggi’s Octo-Puss In Boots
A couple of weekends ago now–moving in caused some major disruptions in my schedule–I got to hang out with my friend Miguel Angel Cardona. We met in college and have reconnected this summer since we are both in the Bay Area. It has been great to hang out and sketch together. The last time weContinue reading “Miggi’s Octo-Puss In Boots”

First Three Dinosaurs!
Slow down, it takes a lifetime
I was once told a story about Picasso. He was in the park sketching people using only one line. A passer by inquired about it and Picasso drew them in one line in just about a minute. Awed the subject asked if they could have the sketch. Picasso said yes for $5000 or some otherContinue reading “Slow down, it takes a lifetime”
Final Destination, Finally!
Boy tomorrow from Tuesday, turned into Friday fast. California time is way slower and laid back. We have apparently acclimated to it quickly or we have actually stayed rather busy the past couple of days. Two visits to Hicklebee’s thanks to twitter friends, meeting new friends at the pool, lunch with crafter friend Eling andContinue reading “Final Destination, Finally!”
