I am a content creator and storyteller based in Florida, where I work for OneHope. I love digital and content marketing, writing, and the occasional doodle.
Today, I discovered the work of Ricco Schacherl of Johannesburg, South Africa. He had a delightful cartoon for Illustration Friday’s word, “flying.”
Cartoon of soccer boy and girl. Boy says, “We play the game. Next week we’ll just do it all over again. What’s the point?”
What’s my motivation, coach? It must be a challenge to keep early elementary kids into a game. Attention spans can’t be as long as the game. That’s what makes watching the games fun. I can relate to the kid out in the field who is picking dandelions instead of paying attention to the game. No need to have playoff pressure when you are six years old.
I drew this comic in Adobe Illustrator CS2

Paige Keiser at the Fox in Socks blog has an interesting post on the business of children’s illustration. http://paigekeiser.blogspot.com/2009/10/5-quick-tips-to-getting-published-in.html
Comic of two men walking. An older man says, “I once had a fit body like yours. Then my warranty expired.”
This is a cartoon I did back in 1996 for the sixth edition of the “New Rider’s Internet Yellow Pages.”
