The Latest Buzz


This is a fun little assignment I was did back at the end of last summer.
I was commissioned by my old friend, Brent Piaskoski to draw the cast of his sweet and funny tween comedy show up in Canada. Brent and his wife/writing partner, Barb, gave it as a wrap gift to the cast. This sort of thing makes me a little uneasy and wonder "Really? You think they'll like that?" mixed with "WOW! Cool beans! I feel so honored." "The Latest Buzz" airs in Canada on the Family Channel and in lots of other countries outside Canada too. Unfortunately it's just not the U.S. (yet)

Hello, 2009. Nice to meetcha.

Testing, testing. One. Two. Three. Anyone out there?

Yeah. I've been a bad blogger. BAD. More like, non-existent. My apologies to anyone who might still be checking in. I've spent the better part of the last many months coloring a graphic novel for another artist. I haven't had time to draw anything of my own outside of the occassional post-it doodle. I'm almost done with revisions on the book...so, soon I hope to share with you many new illustrations! I might go crazy once I find a little free time to play! (I cannot wait!!)One of my resolutions this year was to be a better blogger...so, here's a minor attempt at gettin' goin' on this again.

The above illustration was drawn for a really sweet and fun book for the 10 year old girl in your life! Published by Simon Schuster, written by Julia DeVillers and Jennifer Roy, who happen to be identical twins. A second book in this series is in the works...I'm just not sure when it comes out. I'll be sure to post that cover once it is out in stores.
