My wife and I are on vacation while our kids man the fort. They’ll be so happy when they find out it’s raining in Florida today!
I did a quick sketch of my wife while she slept. My intent was to get the quick pose and not to focus on detail. This is pencil and blending stump in my sketchbook.
Open wide and say, “Ar-r-r-r-r-r!”
When the word, “Open,” was announced, I started thumbing through a previous sketchbook.
Where did this ideal come from? Perhaps it was “Talk Like a Pirate” day. Or maybe Sponge Bob was on while I was brushing my teeth. Who knows. All I know is don’t count on a pint-sized pirate for your dental hygiene.
Last Friday, there was a Homecoming parade in our town. I spotted these two girls ready for the fun. They had plastic grocery bags to collect any candy thrown from the floats. As the band came into view you could just feel their tension. They wanted the rest of the parade to come by so they could collect their treasure.
I’m guessing they will get all the candy eaten just in time for Halloween.
My daughter has brought home a nice, little puppy. It’s a little furball of energy.
The cat has reacted better than I thought. He hasn’t been violent, though you can tell kitty has the blues.
Here are the finished illustrations I did for Warner Press’ line of kids birthday cards.
Most everything was done in Adobe Illustrator. I then exported it into Adobe Photoshop for the finishing touches and the type.
