Pilgrims and Indians

Happy Thanksgiving! It's always been my favorite holiday. All you have to do is cook and eat. Nothing more is expected. Maybe watch some football. Here's a cartoon from a few years ago. I stumbled upon an old sketchbook with the initial doodles for this cartoon. Also, a strange drawing of old boats on the horizon in pen, ink and crayon. I always seemed to gravitate toward Pilgrims and Indians. It was never sharing a meal in harmony as you might expect. The focus was their first encounter seeing one another on the beach. Somehow this seemed like a nice opportunity to comment on immigration.

Happy Birthday Obama!



Today is President Obama's birthday and that means his sign is Leo. Here's a really funny piece that ran in the LA Times today. This is the illustration I did to go with it. Sort of a Lion King Obama kinda thing.



These two are rough sketches of other ideas during the concept phase. They liked them all but went with the more graphic image. I had to agree and think that thick, strong blacks look good on a newspaper page. The lion at the podium is just me being silly.

Hair Flap

This ran as a full page in the LA Weekly a few weeks back. Had a lot of fun coming up with ideas for hairstyles. In case you missed the flap here is a link to the bad hair comment made by Carly Fiorina.

















Here's how it looked on the page....
