Illustration Friday: Discovery

When the word for this week was “Discovery,” I thought of a project I did for the Wesleyan Church kid’s division about thirteen years ago.

I updated this illustration a little and added some shading. I couldn’t leave well enough alone. Still, it’s pretty much what the original illustration looked like.

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!

Retirement Card Final

This is how the illustration looked after I exported it from Adobe Illustrator to PhotoShop.

I was able to add the shadow and highlight details in there. In addition, I was able to add some stars and add some bush and grass details.

A few months ago, I did all my art in Illustrator. But now I’m finding Illustrator and PhotoShop work together and give me a richer illustration.

I printed the finished file at 14″ x 22″. I used an 18″ x 22″ poster board and folded it like a greeting card. Everyone at work will sign the inside of the card.

Illustration Friday: Camoulflage

When people move into a critter’s environment, some of them learn to adjust. This moth has done it nicely.
