This was done for a sailor challenge. All I could think of was the fashion style that seemingly comes and goes once every decade. You can see elements of it in Victorian and Edwardian fashion plates as well as throughout the 20th century. I re...

Paper Swan

I've always liked the printed word and oftentimes try to integrate it in some form into my work. I remember as a kid writing in words that explained the picture I was drawing or writing in words and dialogue. More than one art teacher told me ...

Pattern

I want to ride my bicycle!

Another fascination of mine is anything vintage or old. I get excited when I see something remotely Victorian or Edwardian, whether authentically from past eras or with a modern twist like Steam Punk. Just ask my friends and watch them roll the...

Variation on a theme: cups

Nerd! cough

So, the new theme to illustrate is nerd. I liked doing the kawaii style object and carried some of that over to this illustration. This is Eustacious Q. Harrington, dungeon master and straight A student.

Kawaii Spoon

So kawaii is this cutesy form of illustration from Japan. I've mostly seen it as smiley faces on cupcakes. It's very symmetrical and geometrical for the most part with round soft edges and bright or pastel colors. The most famous representativ...

Aging
