Illustration Friday: Poem


Does anybody still serenade? What about a poem on a midsummer’s night?

It has to be a good poem. something that sparks romance, yet is harmless enough so it doesn’t inspire the dad to call the dogs on you.

Ah romance! I think I’ll go read a James Whitcomb Riley poem.

Illustration Friday: Geeky

If laptops were around thirty-five years ago, this probably would have been be. No, not the girl with the laptop, I would have been the boy looking over her shoulder and wishing I could use it.

I lived vicariously through others. Just ask my brother. I convinced him to by the comic books so I could read them.

Illustration Friday: Twist


When I heard of this week’s theme, I thought of a twisty ice cream cone. The next thing I knew, I saw the torch of Lady Liberty. Quite fitting for Independence Day.

It may be a heavily American theme, but that’s what’s on my mind this week. Happy July 4th!

Illustration Friday: Cars

When you live in Indiana, racing takes all your attention in May. Cars are a natural fit for this week’s theme.

It’s fun to see boys get all excited when they race cars. They can think up some original tracks. They combine racing with a theme park ride to make the ultimate car experience.
