I love you, Gumballhead.

I want to make a new drawing to send to my nephew every week. He'll probably critique them and say they're not very good, but it's the thought that counts, right?

A little "ELF" wants to wish you a Merry Christmas!

My initials are very fitting for this time of year, especially for cheesy cards. I made these little guys with Bristol board, card stock, construction paper and googly eyes! My favorite is the elf, he kind of reminds me of David Sedaris' story of working in a department store during Christmas.

First a Squirrel Monkey met a Soups....

Beep bop boop beep...I like You.

Creepy Bunny Birthday

The pupper whisperer becomes a puppet.

Vaudevillian

Easy, Peasy, lemon-squeezy.

Quite A Lady.

I never got to meet my grandmother, but I keep this photograph of her, taken when she was a little younger than me I think, on my wall above my desk to remind me all the great things she did and all the potential great things I can do. She was the original creative lady of the family; I also keep this drawing she did near my desk. Wouldn't that make a beautiful dress, even now, probably at least 60 or so years after she designed it?

Hot Pepper Noodle, I love you so.

Birdy

It's tough out there.

Reuse, Reduce, Recycle

Keep on dreaming.

My Nemisis

Mr. Deuce

For a certain little man.

Maybe a potential stationery design.
