"Shoes" Picture Book Sneak Peek

I just sent the final art for a children's picture book off to the publisher. Now it's in the designer's hands to add all the text. I thought I would offer a couple of pages as a sneak peek here. When the book itself is published I'll show more and hopefully all of the finished book.

Family Portrait, an Experiment and Mystery Comic Book Character Sketches

Here is my family portrait for 2010. These are for my wife's birthday (Valentine's Day). I was a little late on finishing this for her and I've waited quite a while to post it. I hope the Valentine's thing explains the hearts and the color scheme. I normally don't wear that much pink.


I decided to do a realistic drawing because I get that itch every few months. This was drawn from an image of Luke Wilson from Royal Tenenbaums with no effort made to actually make it look like him. I really enjoyed doing the texture stuff.


I often have mystery comic book projects going on with Keaton Kohl, Erik Harmon and my younger brother Lee Laughead. They usually don't pan out but we have fun talking about story ideas. This one is coming along further than most we've done in the past. The image here is a sketch of the protagonist (on the right), his best friend and his sister. You may have seen a hat/helmet similar to the one the guy in the middle is wearing in some of my past work. The character donning that hat in the past was called "Acornhead." So we have kept that name as the working title. I'll post more when there is more to show.

Little bit of hippo

My brother-in-law scolded me for not updating my blog often, so I'm adding this little entry.

I've been spending most of my time lately finishing up a children's picture book. The story involves the little hippo girl that I am showing a glimpse of here. The work is going well and I'm really happy with the results. Especially the texture I have going on.

I'll be finishing the book up this week and I'll post the finished pages as soon as I get the okay. I have no idea when that will be.

Family Tree Illo

This is a recent job I did for Thriving Family Magazine. I love working for them.

This kind of reminds me of the Record Day illustration I did a while back. I liked doing the albums in the background on that one and I liked doing the photos on this. Most people are in love with the guy with the afro. But my favorite is the kid with the big glasses.
