On the Drawing Board

I haven’t done one of these for a while, mainly because it’s so boring to post what I’m working on but no images due to client confidentiality. Oh well, things are beginning to pile up a bit in the studio:

Scholastic- Full page illustration to accompany an article for their “Dynamath” magazine. This one’s a take-off on “High School Musical”.

CD Cover– Sort of. It’s actually for an virtual CD cover to accompany a collection of Sherlock Holmes audiobooks for Audible and other downloads. I should be able to post pencils and that image when I’m done with it, as well as a link to the audiobook production site.

MAD– 2 page gag article. Short deadline. Can’t say anything more, but it won’t be long until the parody I did in May will be on the stands, and then I’ll post some images here.

NCS Foundation poster art– I mentioned a few weeks back that I am on the board of directors for the charitable part of the National Cartoonist Society called the NCS Foundation. “Bo-nanas” cartoonist, illustrator and fellow MAD-man John Kovaleski and I are doing a poster to spread the word about the cartoonist’s scholarships the foundation is dispersing. More on that later, but the image is in the works. That I should also be able to post pencils and steps in the process.

In the meantime, I’ll be doing live caricatures today and a few days early next week at Valleyfair. If I remember to bring my camera, I’ll post some live caricatures on the blog… One of these days I’ll see if I can do a video of one from start to finish.
