Mama’s Day

A little ol’ dapper bear with some flowers for mama today – Mother’s Day!

Be careful, though. Don’t accidentally get between mama and her grown cub with those flowers. If so, WATCH OUT! You might get an unexpected bear hug!

 

Be thankful for your mama!

Birthday Game

Here’s a fun little sketch I did inside the birthday card of a friend who loves to go deer hunting. I guess not everyone was happy about that birthday so it seems.

 

Oh great, I’ll bet he starts complaining about the shotgun noise next.

Slaw Dog Millionaire

A few years back, I was having lunch in the San Fernando Valley at a place called Slaw Dogs with my buddy Tom Cain. While eating, a woman walked past us on the sidewalk LOADED with perfume, and her own sense of bedazzled/leopard print style. When I got back to my desk, I quickly roughed out an impression of her from memory. I recently revisited that sketch and worked up this drawing.

Bless you Los Angeles, for all your quirkiness. I call it “Slaw Dog Millionaire.”

 

She’s all that and more.

Peaceful Protest

Well, mostly peaceful I suppose. Squirrels can offer up a lot of jibber-jabber chatter when their trees are in peril.

 

Oh, he’s a lumberjack and he’s okay…

 

Guess it is to be expected for squirrels to be like this on a day like today – Earth Day. 🙂

The Singing Cowboy

Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboy singers.

 

Always best if those notes are in tune.

 

This was a traditionally inked sketch in my sketchbook that was then taken into Photoshop to be colored. The hardest part was writing the song that he’s singing.

Smile & Wave

How’s everyone’s spring going? Everyone vaccinated and breathing some fresh air? Everyone free of ticks? And how about that tax day moving to May? Let’s all wave goodbye to what would have been tax day today!

 

This is what happens when you try to set up a secret nature camera in the woods.

Pencil Pusher

Every now and then, it’s good to get out the ol’ sketchbook and just see what might flow forth from one’s hand.

 

Always feels like there’s a million faces just waiting to fall out of my pencil.

Easter Bunny

Well, ol’ Bugs Bunny isn’t exactly the Easter Bunny, but he’ll do for today.

 

He is just a poor boy, though his story’s seldom told…
