Again with This Guy…

January 16th, 2015 | Posted in General

I’m swamped after all the time I spent in the last week with the NCS and the events in Paris. Sorry to say posting will be a little light for a while. READ MORE

For those of you who might be getting tired of all these posts pertaining to the Charlie Hebdo massacre last week, you’ll be relieved to know this will be my last one. This really did rock the cartooning community, and not just political cartoonists. The National Cartoonists Society made a call to all members (although they welcomed non-member pro submissions) to speak their minds and show support over this terrible event in the best way we know how… through cartoons. There is now an awesome gallery of these cartoons, 130 at last count, up on the NCS website. My contribution is above. One last thing.… READ MORE

After the video there was an audio clip featuring Homer Simpson as voiced by Dan Castellaneta opening the evening: I did the above quick ink and watercolor caricature as a thank you to Dan for… READ MORE

Sunday Mailbag- Shipping Art?

December 14th, 2014 | Posted in General

Q: I was wondering if you could share your shipping methods. Specifically, how do you box up your prints and/or commission work for shipping and what advise you would give to others on how to prepare artwork for shipping in an efficient manner. I feel like I spend way too much time getting artwork boxed up in a safe way that makes me confident it will arrive in one piece. Thanks! A: This is actually a big concern because shippers do not treat packages very well, especially at the sorting stage. Trust me I know… I worked at UPS for about 6 weeks when I… READ MORE
