Met this evening with Gar Thaddeus Gernstein at a Steak ‘n Shake in Gainesville, Florida, to get some artwork done and go over some artwork he’s helping me with. Here’s a pile of work done tonight.
Due to a couple of Swampy’s Florida books i had to get done, I’m behind with a ton of other work I’m working hard to finish.

Taught a cartooning creativity class earlier today. I meant to get a photo of the drawing, hidden back there, i created from the answers i got from this small group, but lack of sleep got the best of me…in many ways today. 🙂

This drawing was for today over at my Swampy’s Florida to celebrate Saint Nicholas Day today. This is St. Nick meeting the actual Saint Nicholas. Didn’t have time to color it, so I’ll use it next year.!

Cartooning the Marines! – November 9th, 2016
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Nov.09, 2016, under Cartooning
My Swampy’s Florida daily celebrations continue and tomorrow’s celebrates the Marines. I needed a model and so happens my friend Brent Schell graduated his first Marine platoon Wednesday. (Congratulations, Brent!) His wife Andrea Schell posted a photo of Brent in his uniform. A perfect model to ensure accuracy of my drawing to celebrate our Greatest American Heroes in the Marines protecting our country, like Brent! 
🙂
Though maybe it shouldn’t get around the platoon that Brent was the model for a cartoon cat. 
😀 The inked version is above.
Former classmates and drawings at a Victory Party! – November 8th, 2016

It was great to see Lynette & Suzette Duncan Weddington at a party Tuesday night. I think the last time the three of us were together was during a play we did at Edgewater High School, ‘Dirty Work at the Crossroads’. Unlike myself, Lynette and Suzette have not changed a bit. Stephen Orth, who played the dastardly bad guy, likely remembers that triumph of us thespians! 😀
Otherwise, I volunteered my bit of humorous illustrative life coaching.

Was part of a marriage rehearsal Saturday north of St Augustine.
Very honored to meet Bob who started with a mere 20 cents and built a construction company through great work and effort, something that escapes too may today. His company eventually was bought by the Orlando based Hubbard Construction Company. His family is still working for Hubbard, now owned by corporations outside our country.
Rich loves orchids of all kinds, especially bromeliads, and hopes to meet Clyde Butcher someday and purchase a few prints of Clyde’s photography. I told him what great folks Clyde and Nikki are and get on down to Venice, Florida, and say ‘Hello’! Also, he needs to plan a trip to the Fakahatchee Strand to see the elusive Ghost Orchid. You can visit Clyde’s amazing work here on Facebook by clicking here: Clyde Butcher
Troy is part of the historically significant Mickens family in West Palm Beach. He had been part of the also historic New Bethel Church, but has recently gone on to start a new church where he is pastor. Had a few moments to talk Palm Beach County history with Troy and hope I can meet with him in West Palm Beach and get a personal tour of the historic churches.
Saturday it’s a trip to Titusville to perform for a wedding at a BAKERY! They better hide the cookies!
