Not-A-Box
My good friend Paul gave our family the children’s book Not-A-Box (now a TV show?) back when our kids were babies. It was a favorite in his house and quickly became a favorite in ours. For Paul’s birthday this year, I drew him this card in the style of the book, but with the dark…

Comic-Con Poster
I had the pleasure of helping put on the 2nd annual PS 261 Comic-Con at my kid’s school once again this year. We had an amazing lineup of authors come to Brooklyn to talk with the community about creating their books. I made the logo (above) in the style of the old Uncanny X-Men logo.…

I Want A Puppy Dog
I made another music video for the guys over at Puppet Holiday. Though the Popcorn Monster video I made for them was released earlier, this was my first foray into animating a full music video.

I enjoyed the unexpected challenge of figuring out the math…

Oklahoma History Book Cover
I had the pleasure to create a book cover for a family friend, Mr. Ken Stern. The book details the history of public education in the state of Oklahoma, provides insight on why the setup differs from other states, and critiques the resulting difficulties. Though I’d illustrated a few covers before, this was my first…

Vector Posters for a Boy’s Room
I recently did a quick turnaround on an illustration job creating “posters for a boy’s room” to be used as set decoration on a children’s video production. Since these were going to be poster-sized, I made these vector drawings so they could be any size without losing definition. I went with basic color palettes so…

Wee Veronica
I’ve been stay-at-home daddy-ing it up to this rascal. I drew this to be printed up as Thank You notes for baby gifts that we received.
