Cartoon of puzzled family at Easter egg hunt. Dad says, “Maybe I should have dyed the Easter eggs a different color
As cold as things are in Indiana, I’m wondering if Easter eggs wouldn’t show up if we just stuck to white? I wasn’t this cold as Christmas time. I’ve heard of a three dog night. This is a cat-in-the-lap sort of day. Across the country, this will be the first season of Easter egg hunts that will involve mittens, snowmen and hot chocolate.
Enjoy!
Caption reads: “It’s only fair. If boys have to wear ties on Easter, girls have to wear the floppy hats.”
So much of Easter centers around clothes. There’s “Sunday best” and then there’s “Easter’s best.” Floppy hats at Easter are the equivalent to ties. Neither have much of a use except to dress up that already new and flashy outfit.
Word of advice to the guys: don’t take a hat to church, especially if it’s a baseball cap. The ladies get offended when you are upstaging them.
Cartoon of a girl in a snowstorm. The caption says, “Macey tries out her Eater dress in the middle of a Midwestern, United States spring.”
Yesterday, it was 77°f here (25°c). A cold front moved through. We have a chance of snow flurries among the cold, gusty winds. Sunday promises to have a high of only 43°f (6°c). I’m going to feel sorry for all the ladies and girls in Easter dresses! Hang on, there! spring is coming, it’s just hidden right now.
Here’s an illustration I’ve done this morning for Warner Press. It’s for a prayer card. In July, you can have a prayer card for the kids in your pew.

One of the illustrators we work with at Warner Press has a feature in our local paper. The article is “Local Illustrator Published Second Series of Greeting Cards.”
David Liverett is a neat guy. I’ve known him since college and gave me some good advice back then on how to tackle the illustration market.
My work is nowhere detailed as my stuff. He is into realism and does a spectacular job rendering old barns and lighthouses. He also has a few books on the market featuring his work.
