Illustration Friday: Contagious

Illustration Friday: Contagious

Cartoon: Boy to teacher, "Nobody will play with me, Mrs. Hunt, just because I told them I?m extremely contagious."

This week’s theme for Illustration Friday is "Contagious." I had this idea swimming around my mind as all the hype about swine flu was going on a couple of weeks ago. This looked like the perfect opportunity to bring the idea to life.

I drew this in Adobe Illustrator CS3

The other day, I saw a lady operating a computer at church. I drew a sketch of the scene.

It amazes me how pervasive technology is becoming. People who I thought would never have a computer are now using them. PC’s now seem to be a part of every church. Hi tech has hit mainstream!

Illustration Friday: Hierarchy

Illustration of a man cowering behind a desk. I originally had this for cartoon 1992. When I heard Illustration Friday’s theme was “hierarchy,” I thought this fit the bill.

It made me think about all the business troubles going on in the banks and Wall Street. It takes a lot of courage to make it in this business climate. But be strong and courageous! We’ll get through it!

I drew this in Adobe Illustrator CS2.

Cartoon of man to woman, “I always thought falling head over heels in love was an impossibility.”

“Head over heels” has always sounded like an impossible cliche to me. Then again, I guess our heads are always over our heels, right? That must mean everyone has a chance to fall in love.

I originally drew this cartoon several years ago. When Illustration Friday announced this week’s word was “impossibility,” I went searching through the archives and came up with this one.
