My senior year of high school, I became friends with a group of guys who I’ve known multiple decades now (how has it been so long?). Since I don’t typically refer to other people by name on this site, I won’t do that here, but they know who they are. Anyhow, although we had a lot of overlap in terms

As I was thinking about tentative plans for a few upcoming posts, the thought crossed my mind to do another artwork giveaway. It’s been about a year since my last one, so I think it’s a great time for another. They’ve been a fun way to generate new art projects, and the four or five I’ve done previously have had

The project involved two main tasks that actually evolved into three, and each project sort of naturally transitioned

Like so many parents, we’re doing our best to keep the little ones busy as well as ourselves. In an effort to keep myself busy, I recently wrote, illustrated, and published a children’s book called Robot Family Adventures. It’s actually free on Kindle right now, so if your kids want a short story to read, this one features robots and

Apparently, the beginning of April is book publishing time! Last year, I released a book called Pencils and Process. That one took months to write, and was a 150ish page personal account of my experiences returning to art after having been away from it for a decade. This year, my April book release is a kids book called Robot Family
