A little homage to Norman Rockwell’s Going and Coming painting, with a twist, of course.

Some of my favorite people are those who look gruff and spooky on first appearances, but turn out to be soft and mushy on the inside.

I had to speed through this one to make the Illustration Friday deadline, so you’ll notice it’s quites sketchy. It’s a play off another illustration I did quite some time ago: Momentum

So, to kill two birds with one stone, I decided to use this week’s Illustration Friday theme to create a new website header. My header has been like Christmas lights that you forget to take down… and in a year, they become useful again ;) Time to change that.
A box of crayons symbolizes a cocoon, where there’s something beautiful inside just waiting to get out and show the world. It’s wonderful to watch a child with a blank piece of paper and a box of crayons and see what they come up with.

Anyone who has kids who can speak know that it’s near impossible to keep ahead with finances.

Family dynamics are always fun to illustrate. Growing up with 6 sisters and 1 brother gives me lots of fodder for humorous banter.

This cute little bear character is a man-eating machine, can’t you tell? Just try and rub his tummy and see where you end up.

My 7 year old daughter is following after me with the love of art. Not only does she draw quite well for her age, she has a sense of humor to beat all. What’s really fun is to see when she gets in this humorous mode, and she just pumps out the work like there’s no tomorrow. She doesn’t care that the final piece is her finest, she just has to get her ideas out. Many times the spontaneous scribble is much more enjoyable to see than a well-drafted masterpiece because it’s a glimpse into her twisted personality. See below:
Santa Hit By a Snowball
I love the surprised look of Santa’s eyes just after being pelted by a snowball to the face.
Santa Crash
Here you can see that Santa really biffed it in a powdery mess. Only his hat and legs flailing recklessly in the air are visible after falling out of his sleigh, apparently from several hundred feet in the sky.
Santa's Fed Up
Most likely after too many falls from his sled, Santa decides to take a safer route and buy a car. Poor Vixon.
And lastly, I let the kids have full reign of an old digital camera of mine. Not only does this appease their desire to use my brand new digital camera, but we unintentionally get some wonderful shots from their point of view. I particularly loved this one, taken by the same daughter spoken of above.
