Made these a few months ago for a non-profit called ilearn4free.

Some Trees

Filled my sketchbook with trees one day. Trees are awesome.

Monster Sketch

I must've seen the Monsters University trailer last week. Yep. Yep I did.

Robot Walking

Hero

A quick doodle from my sketchbook.

Bird with eggs

I'm not sure why you'd need a nest if your eggs hang from branches, but this bird has a nest just the same.

Self portrait

I always thought the Yoda training sequence from The Empire Strikes Back was awesome. Also, there will be more beard story soon.

Tree

I like funky trees.

Dude

I'm sure this was influenced by Crime and Punishment, but this isn't Raskolnikov, for the record.

Love Is In This School

Ah, Washington Elementary. My 3rd-6th-grade alma mater. I don't really remember what the janitor looked like at Washington, but I do remember our school's motto (which has since changed): "Love is in this school". Pretty good, right?Well, this janitor is wearing a neon green "Love is in this school" shirt. He's also wearing a Washington School "Star Student" hat (The name has been changed to Windor to protect the innocent. No, actually, I didn't think of giving him a "Star Student" hat until later, so really he's just wearing a hat that says, "Windor Flskjg". But he should be wearing a star student hat. The kind with the squishy front that has puffy paint printed on it and then the cheap mesh stuff in the back. You know what I'm talking about. Have you ever tried to fit a whole paragraph into parentheses? It's fun.)This is probably a misperception, but I seem to remember school janitors wearing random school paraphernalia all the time. Especially neon green stuff. Must've been a late 80s thing.

Little Kite Drawing

Just a little sketch of a boy and his kite.

Knight

Anutha image from my new sketchbook. Trying out Moleskine watercolor for the first time. Very nice paper.

Folksy Art

I like it when just flat color does a lot of the work, as in this little sketch. And the green shoes are fun.

Mary Blair-ish Sketch

Did I ever mention I love Mary Blair? Oh yeah, I did. Blair's art for It's A Small World inspired this.

Little Spaceship

Here's a little spaceship doodle (1" x 1"). Nothing much to say about it. Except that it's a Toyota, of course.

Parka dude

A few months back, I saw an exhibit of interesting-looking helmets (think the headgear the sandpeople (sp?) wear in Star Wars). It inspired this little sketch.
