Big news - ❇️ 100 Things You Love to Draw ❇️ is live for pre-order! This is expansion to my book Drawing is Magic which has now been in print for 11 years. It focuses on finding your visual voice through the enjoyment of making. All the big book sellers are taking preorders. It collects wisdom from my 20 years in the art classroom @washuivc and @washusamfoxschool with brainstorming and drawing exercises for all ages. I know all doodlers and makers will enjoy it regardless of if you’re just starting or a seasoned pro. 〰️〰️〰️✍️
McToad is back- now in miniature form, with pages thick enough to be chewed on! I really wanted to highlight my favorite drawing of McToad, just how did he get all of himself into that helicopter? 🐸🚁

Excited to finally see this jacket I did for “This Way to Happy” in print. Looks great! Congrats @alisongreenmyers 🤩I used the classic Great Gatsby jacket illustration by Francis Cugat for inspiration for the carnival.
Thrilled to have three of my images appearing in American Illustration, @american_illustration_winners … a juried annual of the best illustrations from the last year. Thanks to @ct_mag for the cover on Artificial Intelligence- and always glad to get my church sketchbook ✍️ in the show.
