Nobel Peace Bird

I had the kids at Hwa Rang Do's Tommorrow's Leading Knights create bag puppets that they would use to give a speech on how they would make the world a better place in commemoration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.  So to provide some incentive to get up and speak, I created the Nobel Peace Bird Trophy!

It Is What It Is - 'Oops'

Guards at museums standing next to artwork and look like there about to fall asleep are really slipping into a coma because of these type of scenarios.

It Is What It Is- Gorilla Art

This comic I had a little fun with creating a gif video for the t.v.  Both the gorilla suit and the video are watercolored and then I mess with them in Photoshop.

Zoo Drawings

When ever I get the chance I've been trying to get together with a couple of drawing buddies of mine ( usually just Nick Straight and myself) to draw some animals.  As wonderful as that sounds to do, you find that most of the animals are curled up in a ball or there's a lot of people blocking the view, or it's just plain chaos!  But it always feels good to get out and draw!
