Here's another little Olympian demonstrating his ability to make a mess by unraveling a toilet paper roll!

And finally, here's an illo of a girl learning how to walk with an Olympic torch carrier in the background. This was inspired by the editor's story of her little girl taking her first steps during the Olympics!

This is the next illo I did in the Olympic baby series for the current August issue of Babytalk Magazine. It shows babies reaching the developmental milestone of communicating!

This baby has bounce! He's another Olympic baby I drew for the current August issue of Babytalk Magazine.

This is illo #1 in a series I did for the August 2012 issue of Babytalk Magazine. My illos feature babies showing off their accumulating motor skills by competing in different baby-style events. Being able to turn over a bowl of spaghetti on his head shows that this baby has motor strength!

This week my illustrated recipe, "Maui Luau Sandwich", is featured in They Draw & Cook's "Summer Delights" recipe collection on the home page. I loved drawing this recipe! Thanks to TD&C for highlighting my illo!

No, I'm not lonely! It's just this week's topic over at Illustration Friday! This is my take on it...

who gets to call it art?

The Paso Robles Art Association hosts a monthly art movie event and they've asked me to create the posters! Here is the artwork I created for next month's film, the documentary entitled Who Gets To Call It Art?

In the 60's Henry Geldzahler was the Metropolitan Museum of Arts's first curator of contemporary art. This film combines his recollections of the art scene in New York along with interviews from artists of that period including David Hockney and Frank Stella. You can view the trailer here.

Sadly it's not available for streaming on Netflix, but you can get it by mail if you're hardcore!
