cook book illustration

This cartoon is for a camping cook book published thru NOLS. The text describes melting snow for water while winter camping. Originally in B&W, I added some color for this blog posting. I love playing with subtle blue tones. Two well placed boing marks.

frog as instructional

Typical instructional illustration. Six boing marks.

typical instructional cartoon

A typical instructional drawing for Climbing Magazine. Note the one-finger holding power of the long haired climber. This is actually a funny cartoon if you have any insights into the sport. Lotsa boing marks, I lost count at 27. And a very forceful hand lettered: UNGHH!

nice use of subtal tones

Caricature of a typical artist at work. Espresso, cigarettes, ascot, beret, goatee and Jack Percells. Eight nicely placed boing marks, and I'm especially proud of the two boing marks on the cartoon butt of the girl climber.

placing bashies

Two drawing in a series for climbing magazine. Simple instructional cartoons, awash in boing lines.

Two boing marks, and some drips of sweat. Angry moose from the Really Cool Backcountry Ski Book.
