A drawing for APEril as April ends! – April 30th, 2018

by on Apr.30, 2018, under Cartooning

Being away from Facebook more than usual during April, I’ve missed much! One is cartoonist John Sanford’s newist challenge – APEril! Drawing our swinging simian pals during the entire month. Thanks to seeing cartoonist Stacy Curtis APEril post this last day, I got clued in and here’s my chimp!

I did this, per chance, last week as a warm up at Lollicup before working on the River Rats comic.

My projects in progress: Individual illustration. – March 22nd, 2018

by on Mar.23, 2018, under Caricatures, Cartooning

Bopped over to The Villages Wednesday to attend their Comic Book Club. Who would guess anyone in The Villages collect comic books? They do.
 
From there traveled a short distance to my objective to take photos of a nice lady for an illustration to do. Got that started Thursday, as can be seen in the attached photograph.
Couldn’t get much from her, so it’ll be a simple illustration.
 
Motored from there to my old pal Peggy Peterson’s nearby place where I was invited to a fine – and much needed – good meal.
 
Thursday was a day working in the studio all day. Trying to get out to hike while our Florida weather is still hikable. Might sneak out Friday.

My projects in progress: A royal family! – March 1st, 2018

by on Mar.01, 2018, under Caricatures, Cartooning

Yep, it’s a royal family! And i don’t mean the hilarious play by Kaufman and Ferber. They rule the kingdom at their locally owned and operated eatery.
 
I’ve still got about 5 or 7 hours of work to do, but thought I’d share where this is since the pencils I posted a few weeks ago.
 
This is watercolor onto the last of the Arches watercolor board. Arches has stopped making the board and I’ve only a couple sheets left.
