Here are a few pages from the new Swampy’s Florida Storybooks” Trilby’s Flower that I’m introducing at the 2012 Pine Castle Pioneer Days. Come out and say Hello! I’ll be drawing and painting live Saturday after 3pm and all day Sunday.

Drew a mess of caricatures Saturday evening… and night!

I intend to post parts of projects I’m working on here and then forget. Here’s part of an illustration I’m working on.

Here’s part of a gag cartoon I finished.

Today is Jacob’s 15th birthday. Amazing but true, for those who know what this is about. I had lunch with my father at Steak and Shake. The sketch (First I’d done in the sketchbook for almost 2 months) is of gumball machines at the restaurant. Later I was fortunate to have the opportunity to spend some time and talk Orlando history with my 101 year old friend, Lucile Fair. Later Met with Tex Ann and Bob Buck to work on Orlando Remembered display. Still later met up with ol’ Ken Culotta and worked on gags at a Denny’s. Below is a photo from that meeting.

Just finished most recent commission for client. Teddy bears and lollipops!

My personal commissioned pieces are inexpensive compared to commercial pieces.

Here’s a young person working through the hierarchy per Illustration Friday. This was zipped through in between projects. Hope it turned out OK.
