The man with a vast red hat met a flower on the pad and asked, "Are you my dad?" The flower said, "No. I'm not the one, but I'll pretend I'm your dad if you'll pretend you're my sun."

To do list. I usually hate them but this one was kind of fun.

Doodles and notes I started at a regional NJ chapter of SCBWI conference this past weekend. Then just kept adding stuff to the page this week. I learned a lot and met some great people. Looking forward to June!

Sometimes I just have to draw hungry marshmallow slurping monsters.

Illustration inspired of Hokusai woodblock print The great wave. First a big version i draw for commission. Second one is sketchbook version i do for Inktober prompt ”wave”

The town gets a little crazy when King Kong shows up.

Mixed media. Acrylic, pencil, digital. This is a piece from the book “Mail Me Art - Medium Without A Message” by @littlechimpsociety. I think it was the second call for entries/book.There are now 4 books filled with awesome art drawn and painted on outsides of envelopes and packages by artists all over the world who then mailed them to the UK totally exposed to the postal service. The original was all analog. I brought this into Procreate and reworked it. I may do more when I get a chance but I’m pretty satisfied with it now.

If it's not too much to ask...

The new Hasselblads are so dang out of my range! I can't even swing a used one. This is the first time using the oil brush in @procreate on a final illustration. I have to admit i didn’t want it to end.

Having way too much fun with textures and halftones in Procreate.

Allover fish pattern using some old and new ocean themed drawings.

85% chance of brain. I had a brain storm today.

This was a morning doodle that took me into the afternoon. It’s so hard to stop!

Birds bikes and bells. It started as a quick bike doodle and then I got carried away. I kinda like getting carried away. I seldom know where it will end up.

Fun digital doodles.

Here comes the doodle caravan. It's getting close. Can't wait to see what everyone uploads.

Fishy stuff going on with Bradshaw lately. Summertime must be getting close.

More nautical stuff keeps pouring out of my brain and into my moleskine.

A lot of times my pens take over, spilling out the inside of my brain onto the paper. Thankfully, it's not as gross as it sounds.

Depression is a focus on the past. Anxiety is a focus on the future. Breathe in presence. Exhale stress. Focus on what you can do. Do.

Cute cat on pink background.

True Like. Because everything on the internet is true, right?

I drew these guys with a Pilot Custom 823 FA and Platinum Carbon Black ink. The FA nib has a good drawing width on watercolor paper - one of my favorites. It's a soft nib but I don't use the line variation, just some nice shock absorption with each downstroke. The Carbon Black ink is out-of-this-world good, though being pigmented I fear keeping it in too many pens.
