Picture Book Maker: Helllp! Perspective!

Nathan Clement is a first-class illustrator with tons of talent and an all-around good guy.
His latest post shows how he got some help with a tricky perspective problem. In the process, he revealed a great site from another artist, Julie Duell. Both sites are rich in illustration and art information.
Here’s Nathan’s site: Picture Book Maker: Helllp! Perspective!

Cartoon: Homework Excuse

Cartoon of a mother and son. Son says, “But if Grandpa says the world is hopeless, what’s the point in doing my homework?”

I’ve heard a lot of negativity lately. The news and commentary can bring people down. Let’s not bring down the next generation, shall we? We’ve been through troubles before and we’ll get through the current set of troubles. Hang in there!
I drew this in Adobe Illustrator CS3

Cartoon: Games at Work

Cartoon of husband and wife in the kitchen. The husband says, “They’re not giving me a raise, but they are letting me play this really cool game at work.”


This is a classic cartoon I did back in 1996 for the sixth edition of the “New Rider’s Internet Yellow Pages.”

I used to design books for a computer games book publisher. It was fun playing video games for research. Too bad I stunk at video games. I knew I was in trouble when my five-year old son started beating me!

Cartoon: Spreading the Love

Cartoon of a girl and boy. Girl says, “I’m trying to spread the love. Sticky notes help me do that.”


I may have to try this technique today. Where are those sticky notes? I need to write something to my wife today.

I drew this in Adobe Illustrator CS3.

Cartoon: The Finest Computer

Cartoon of dad and son. Dad says, “Welcome to the computer age, son! I got you the finest Commodore 64 money can buy.”


This is a classic cartoon I did back in 1996 for the sixth edition of the “New Rider’s Internet Yellow Pages.”

I remember the Commodore 64. A friend had it in college. I was jealous. Does that make me old? I wonder if my son would like a Commodore 64? I’ll ask him after he’s finished playing on his XBox 360.
