I just picked up an Eddie Bauer catalogue and found some work that I did for them last summer. One of the projects that I worked on was a placement graphic/ logo for their new canvas duffel bags and rucksacks.

Happy Easter!

Hi all! I've been very bad about blogging since my move to Seattle....but wanted to let you know that my Stuffed Portabello recipe is being featured in the fall issue of N.E.E.T. magazine. If you haven't checked out N.E.E.T., it's a super cool online indie mag. They are featuring some of the artists from Salli and Nate's blog theydrawandcook. You have to flip through to page 246 to see our illustrations but it's a terrific issue- have fun! Thanks Stephanie!

Here is another page from the Children's Book project I have been working on with Mary Beth Granito. This page is about Winter. This is exactly what I want to do when it's snowing! Good thing there is no snow now, just rain!

Here is a follow-up to the sketches that I posted a while back. I just finished a piece for a book by author Mary Beth Granito. The book is about the four seasons, this one being "spring". I will be posting the "winter" illustration soon!
