Here’s a couple of daffodils starting to come up earlier this month. (Before it snowed.)
Here’s a honey locust branch because the thorns always impress me. (And this is only a little one.)

I am somewhat concerned by the blatant workplace safety violations depicted in this illustration. 😉

Third Grade Textbook Illustrations
I’ve been busy the last couple weeks. Here’s some of what I was working on. These images were commissioned by Hart Mcleod Ltd. for a textbook project for third grade. Click on the images for (slightly) larger versions.
Plain Cupcake
Just a plain cupcake. I’ll decorate it later…
Jump Rope Animation
It’s just a simple little stick figure jumping rope, but it’s my first ever animation. I made the frames in Illustrator and animated them in Photoshop. It consists of ten frames at .05 seconds each, so a rate of 20 frames a second. I figured out the timing by singing “Miss Mary Mac” at the tempo that goes with jumping rope and set the speed to match that. (Though it still might be just a bit too fast, I’m not sure.) It’s not very fancy, but I’m proud of it. 
I may have overdone her bouncy hair a bit, though.
