Here’s a tiger adrift!

It’s Illustration Friday’s word of the week: Adrift. During my UStream broadcast I called out for another word. Thanks to Jared Sloger and Chris Bjors who piped up ‘Tiger’ and ‘Ribbon’. So I added both. You see the tiger and if you don’t recognize the ribbon, it is not just something you tie in your hair, it is also a type of flag.

I had a little bit of extra time after this past Monday’s UStreaming of me drawing the editorial cartoon. So I tossed out to viewers the Illustration Friday word of the week. I ask for another word to make it more fun. Dick Daniels came up with “Rubber Duck”. So, I quickly I focused on ‘Focused’ and figured out how to create a gag with ‘Rubber Duck’. Above is my contribution to ‘Focused’.

The next morning (the 8th) was a breakfast meeting for the SATW. I went out and got a photo of one of two neon signs left in Downtown Charleston.

I loved these hand painted metal soldiers. I wish I had that kind of patience to paint such intricacy!…Well, a lot of people wish I had that kind of patience!
