Did some hunkering down Friday night to draw like crazy finish the Swampy’s Florida comic I planned for Free Comic Book Day.

I’ve been inking mice!
This is a bit of the River Rats coloring storybook I’m working on.

Here’s the finished painting I had shown in progress earlier.
It’s of a family who own a restaurant, Dee Dee’s Cafe, in Ocala, Florida.
The owner loves television programs about royalty and I then interspersed various other interests of the husband and sons.

The scan muted subtleties of the watercolor painting. The board is Crescent Board.

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.

Was a guest speaker for, my friend, George Pieper’s cartooning class in The Villages. It was a particularly inquisitive class. I did my usual audience participation illustration involving a dog, golf and a watch.

Inked a set of characters for a project today and sketched this bunny which I’ll be including in another upcoming project I’ll be sharing here soon.

At Florida SpringsFest March 3-4, 2018! Drawing in a couple hundred books. Good to see so many friends nearby and from afar at the event. Hope to see more Sunday!

The call came in at the last minute Wednesday night to have complete by Thursday. Worked on an idea, penciled, got approval, inked and then digitally colored. Also removed all of the identifying information involved.
