Dunno how I convinced my boss to let me draw a breakdancer, but my work soundtrack was dope for the day.

Hitchin
Scantily clad lady for the day job. Which is different than the scantily clad ladies I draw in my free time.
Mars needs women...also liquor and gambling.

Day job thing that I shoehorned a martian into. I kept saying that martians were topical, but no one was buying it.
Total Hoser
Hitting the ice for the day job. Drawing sports things requires so much reference for me, but I'm pretty sure I could draw Wolverine with my eyes closed.
Hockey players and Wolverine are both from Canada, that's close enough right?
Well I Think It's Booty

The first of a whole mess of illustrator stuff to share.
I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've drawn a pirate, which explains why I am not a famous artist yet.
Mark's Larry Birdthday
My pal need a spot illo for his birthday invites, so I whipped one up in lieu of actually getting him a present. This is quickly becoming the de facto cartooning style for me.
Madtown: Rejected Scene
While nailing down a style for my Madtown segments, I did this scene which was rejected in favor of a looser style.
I like it, I got to compose for movie parameters instead of comics, and it's one of the rare times I've rendered shadow in ink and I don't do it nearly enough.
Carol And John's Superhero Club
Designed some buttons for my pals at Carol And John's Comic Shop. They should be available for their big holiday sale this year. If you're in Cleveland, you should stop by. Santa, free beer, buttons, and comics. Sounds like reason enough for the season to me.
Madtown: Scene 65
Got the okay to put these up, so here are some of the storyboards I've been working on.
I'm working with 4 other artists to bring Charles Moore's script to life, and he really wanted me to push my comic book experience with the segments. So, I'm relying more on line of sight eye movement and less on conventional film shot framing. It's been a lot of fun to tweak my style, while playing in a familiar sandbox.
I draw these double size, and shrink em into the framework Charles set up.
Down And Out In The Magic Kingdom @ The Cleveland Library
This week is the beginning of the library performances of the Ingenuity adaptation of Down And Out In The Magic Kingdom by Cory Doctorow. If you're in town, you should come out to support it: Library Performances. It's a really fun event, and an excuse to support libraries.
I illustrated the third act of the play, and thought now was a good time to show that off. You should still try to come out if you can. The pictures make a whole lot more sense with the voice actors and music.
Actually, even without the easy access to scotch, the library is probably a much better venue for the play than Ingenuity was.
Down And Out At Ingenuity Fest
Ingenuity fest is a big three day arts festival thing in Cleveland, and this year I got involved with all the nonsense.
I produced 20 illustrations for act three of Down And Out In The Magic Kingdom, which is an adaption of Cory Doctorow's (Boing Boing) Novel of the same name. It's a really great story, and was a blast to illustrate, despite having two weeks to get it done.
With the deadline, I used it as an opportunity to dust off what comic book chops I've accrued over the years, and I'm pretty happy with the results. It's the first time I've seriously used a brush in a long time, and its just like riding a bike. A really nice bike, with streamers and everything. I had so much fun, that I'm hoping to find the time to get some more comic work under my belt in the coming months. God knows I've got enough scripts around the house.
Down And Out In The Magic Kingdom is shown four times: Schedule, and it's going to be at some libraries after that. If you live in Cleveland, come check it out and say hi. I'll be hanging out in the doodle bar wearing a La Parka mask.
Far From Home-Grown
I drew the cover of The Scene!
I cashed the check in San Fransisco, where I live now.
Everybody looks cool on the internet.
Smile The Day After Today
In the future, the United States will fund space exploration to find the most powerful substance in the universe...Love.
