Here’s the 10th interior.
The coach substitutes at the Sea Turtles’ school and observes that the team is really working well together. They’ll be a real challenge to the Jackrabbits next time they face them.

Here’s a recent commission for rap artist, David Smith, who goes by the stage name Dave 3X3. This image is to be used for an upcoming album cover. He was wonderful to work with.
Good luck to you, Dave!
This image (above) was based on an earlier image (below) from 2013 with the same character. You’ll notice these aren’t drawn in my typical style. The first was one of my experiments, playing with different ideas. Then I matched the style (and refined it just a little) for the new commission. I like playing with different ideas, and sometimes they even lead to new opportunities.
And always, I am accepting commissions!
Here’s the third illustration for the book project I just finished for Learning A-Z. Page 5 of The Neighborhood’s Night by Juliana Catherine.
In this one, it’s a bedroom at night, but red and blue emergency lights from the window and a white light from the hall are lighting it up. The girl, Leena, is running across the room with her shoes and emergency bag while her mom and little brother wait for her at the door. They’re about to leave the house because they’ve been ordered to evacuate.
Here’s the first illustration for the book project I just finished for Learning A-Z. Page 3 of The Neighborhood’s Night by Juliana Catherine. Like with all the interior illustrations in this project, this one’s a spot illustration that will be the width of one page without any bleed. The image has a half inch on either side that will likely be cut off, but allows the publisher some room to shift the image left or right or to adjust the size a bit if they like. Like the cover image, the lighting was quite important on this one too. I rather like the swirling smoke.
This lightning storm was fun to draw. The piece was all about the lighting. And the lightning. Lighting my lightning. 🙂
Here’s what I think is going to be the last in the portfolio series I’ve been working on. This is a very current scene. Our girl is participating in a zoom conference with her peers. Perhaps in an online class or study group? I don’t think she’s sick, but she is isolated in her home, away from her friends.
Here’s the fourth image for a graded reader I recently illustrated for Learning A-Z. Mom for City Council by Jessica Malordy.

Here’s an image for page 7 of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. This shows a boy puling the curtains away from a space heater his mom’s turning on.
Here’s 3 of 4 images for page three of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. This page is showing four situations where you should call 911. This one shows a girl trying to shake awake her grandfather who doesn’t seem able to wake up. He needs help!
