1 of my watercolor caricature illustrations in progress! – April 22nd, 2016

by on Apr.22, 2016, under What's New?

2016-0422-WarnerHalo

Illustration ready for watercolor! This is for a couple who met through a video game, named Halo 3. Had to research the game and all I could about it. Spoke to a fellow today who told me the outfits the characters are dressed in is inconsistent, which helped explain why i kept finding all sorts of variations of how the characters dressed. So, for Halo 3 fans out there, i did the best I could based upon what I could find.
 
Penciled today and prepped and ready for watercolor!

Retirement card for Rob Spindler! – March 30th, 2016

by on Mar.30, 2016, under What's New?

2016-0329-RobSpindler

While working in the City of Orlando Planning Department I got to work with a really great crew. Certainly that included my supervisor, Jeff Parker. Another was Robert Spindler who was one who took over my position when I moved over to the Engineering Department.

Rob is amazing in that he could be asked to do a project, amidst a maelstrom of other projects, and has the unbelievable organizational skills to get the job done fast and accurately. Skills I wish I had.

Rob retired Tuesday from City Hall after 26 years.
Congratulations and Best wishes, Rob, during your retirement!

Man in the Swamp Report – Friday Project Report & Other Silliness! – March 25th, 2016

by on Mar.25, 2016, under What's New?

People have been asking where else they can see me speak and be ridiculous. So, this is the first of a weekly series of videos showing projects I’m working on, how I create them and even some showing me actually producing the art. A bit of Easter good cheer thrown in, also. smile emoticon

By the way, if you would like me to create a painting for you or other artwork, let me know!

I Gave a Talk of #Florida water Monday night & got Eggs! – March 8th, 2016

by on Mar.08, 2016, under What's New?

2016-0308-Eggs

Spoke to a group about water issues in Florida last night and was awarded for it by being given a carton of fresh chicken eggs from the Wilson family! Thank you, Donna Dollar Wilson, Ed Wilson and your chickens!
 
My talk was about where our water in #Florida comes from, what endangers it, sinkholes, the humongous cost to taxpayers to fix damage done by others and the problem of massive “infrastructure” construction. The latter being a part of the former.
 
I invited them (Including being sure each had a brochure) and all of you to come to our Florida SpringsFest to learn more about our state’s water and have fun doing it! I’ll be there at Florida’s Silver Springs State Park March 19th and 20th with my Swampy’s Florida! Hope to see you all there!
