Opossum in a Pear Tree - Christmas Card 2011

With land development nearby, there are quite a few opossums running around our city neighborhood. With them and Gerry's current penchant for pears, I did my own version on the first verse of "The Twelve Days of Christmas." The partridge is a little miffed that his spot has been usurped by the opossum, but maybe the partridge doesn't mind a Christmas break?

Xmas Rabbit - Christmas Card 2010

This was an idea I drew on a whiteboard for a friend, Joe V, ages  ago. With more skill now, I defined the character better and used it for my 2010 Christmas card. I think of this Christmas rabbit as a bit of a misfit and the uncle of the more widely-known Easter Bunny.

The Sack and the Black Letter

Sack Pantomime school project. The criteria: 1) Sack sees an object 2) Sack reacts to it 3) Something happens. This animation is a statement on how the world isn't fair to naive do-gooders.

New Hampshire Coffee Shop

[2008, Pencil on paper, 8.5 x 11 in]
Back in January 2008, after Hillary's loss to Barack Obama AND John Edwards, she kind of "teared up" at a New Hampshire coffee shop. She quotes, "I just don't want us to fall backwards... This is very personal to me... I see what's happening and we have to reverse it." In my opinion, she didn't really tear up, but was just tired and who wouldn't be (especially after a surprising loss)? She's tough, but I'm for "change" and donuts (that's me reaching for the chocolate sprinkle one). Someday, I'll get around to coloring this drawing.
