    To celebrate the release of his new book Ares: Bringer of War, everyday George O’Connor is posting a drawing of Ares by one of his friends.  I was honored that he asked me at to take part! I wanted to do an Ares drawing that included his sidekick Eris (goddess of strife, chaos, and discord)…

    As previously mentioned, I have been doing little drawings for the birthdays of my daughter’s playmates.  This one was for Cami who was way into penguins, giraffes, and golf carts on her 2nd birthday.

    The main reason I haven’t been posting things as often is that I’m now a stay-at-home dad taking care of a rambunctious little girl.  I decided that when one of my daughter’s playmates has a birthday, I would do a quick illustration of something they were really in to at that point in life.  My…

    Here’s an ultimately unused illustration I did for a friend’s band, The New Black.  The instructions were to draw the band members as kids in a cartoony style for a gig poster and masthead for their YouTube page.

    This was originally going to be my donation to this year’s Woman of Wonder benefit auction, but I didn’t finish it in time.  In fact, I’m not entirely sure it’s finished yet.  I’ve already re-drawn it a couple of times, but the pose just feels stiff.  At this point, I’m ready to move on to…

    I was honored that my life-long friend Matt asked me to draw the invitation for his wedding with his wife-to-be Krystal.  They wanted something laid-back and somewhat cartoony depicting their entire family including their son Will and two dogs (the cats did not make the cut!)  I ended up doing this in water color all fancy-like so…

    I created a new name and logo for my Fantasy Football team.  I’m not that great when it comes to following the NFL, so I expected to be beaten often.  Thus, I named myself The Redheaded Step-kin.

    My friend and studiomate George O’Connor has an ongoing series of books based on the Greek gods. He recently came out with Hades, the fourth book of 12. Way back when the second book, Athena, was being released, George put out a call for guest artists to do their own interpretation of a character from…

    I’ve been remiss in posting about some illustrations I did a couple of months ago for the short story Claimus Flees Manhattan written by Ken Wohlrob.  The story is being released in six parts by Undie Press.  Each part has its own illustration, and so far the first three have been made available for your…
