Skating Time!

#35 – Skating Time!

No particular inspiration today.  Just felt like pulling out an old character.  Radar, this rabbit, has been around since I was doodling in college. This one made Andrew’s Wall.  Of course it did… it has a dog in it.

Fall Cannonball!

#34 – Fall Cannonball!

Andrew tickled me when I asked him about this one.  He thought the boy was jumping into fire.  I can see his point; as far as abstractions go, a pile of leaves and a pile of fire look similar. I … Continue reading

Robofamilia

#33 – Robofamilia

Inspired by just about everything Andrew draws.  He frequently draws our entire family.  He said that he didn’t like this one because I forgot our dog, which – of course – he never does.

Without a Net

#32 – Without a Net

I ask Andrew what he thinks of these every day.  Sometimes he says he likes them, but most of the time, his answer is “not really.”  I asked him what he means and he said, “I only like the dog … Continue reading

#30 – Going for a Walk

#29 – Millipede Munch

Have I mentioned that I love bugs?  This love – slowly but surely – is rubbing off on Andrew.  Millipedes are my favorites.  Nevertheless, he deemed today’s “gross.” I’ve wanted to draw a more serious version of this one for … Continue reading

Wanna trade?

#26 – Wanna Trade?

If you can’t plagiarize from yourself, who can you plagiarize from?  Actually, nobody.  Don’t plagiarize.  Writing is hard. The little girl in this photo is Elsa, named after Elsa Beskow.  Elsa is the main character in a story I wrote … Continue reading
