An Illustration for Farfaria's Puss in Boots
Farfaria is a super cool iPad app. It has tons of great stories and really awesome artwork for kids. My 3 year old and 6 year old love it! You can get the 30 day free trial here: Farfaria. I illustrated a version of "Puss in Boots". I am working on more stories with them, both writing and illustrating. Here is an illustration from "Puss in Boots".

Noah's Ark Interactive "Mural"
This is a small project that I plan on donating to the children's ministry of my church. It is an interactive "mural" painted on a 36"x 54" wood panel.
I painted the entire surface with magnetic paint which you can find at most hardware and craft stores. Then I painted the simple ark scene with acrylic paints and brushed a coat of gloss sealer for a textural finish. The panel has a wooden frame attached to the back so it stands about 2.5" off the wall when mounted.
Here are some detailed images of the magnets:
I sketched the characters with pencil and scanned them into my computer. I painted them with digital watercolor in Corel Painter and then printed them on "antique parchment" paper which gives them a warm and textural look. I used 3M spray adhesive to attach the prints to a sheet of magnetic material (which can be purchased from sign suppliers) and then covered them with a layer of clear gloss vinyl.
I'd like to make a bunch of these that could possibly be used as interactive apps as well. I have dozens of scene ideas (space, jungle, fairy tales, ocean, cars, zoo, etc). It would be a dream to make a living by painting fun interactive murals for daycares, schools, libraries, kid's rooms, restaurants, etc...
...so...
...feel free to contact me if you have an interest in commissioning a fun interactive mural of your own!

"What Can I Do For You" #2 Patterns for the People!
Between "Stack" and my next story, I want to produce a series of relatively simple "What Can I Do For You" images. I will use them for the "call to action / about me" section of my website and also in a small printed portfolio for marketing and promotion.
I am very interested in licensing my work. There are millions of products that require decorative art and design. Single images work great on most products, but sometimes a large area needs to be filled. A repeating pattern can be used for stationary and office supplies, fabric prints, website backgrounds, and more. Here is an example using a kiwi and a kiwi:

Stuck Illustration: Mooo?
I haven't received any questions about whether or not a cow will play a significant role in Stack. The answer is no. She has a part in Stuck.
