Update on Captive8

So the owner of Captive8 in Australia has apologized to me, but she has not paid me. She is upset with me for sharing what she did on here and other social media. I again will say I am not trying to hurt her, but I want to make other artists aware that someone is stealing artwork from the internet and using it. I have given her the chance to pay me and then I told her that I will definitely post this. The new story is that someone else gave my work to her. She hasn't told me who, and hence why it appears to me that she is lying because her first reaction was to say that it looked "similar". It's a real shame that someone would run their company this way. She needs to pay and I am giving her a huge break on my licensing fee, so you would think she would do this instead of having a lawsuit. I will keep you posted!
My drawing that I posted here April 17, 2014


The logo that she made sometime this month. As you can see she used the EXACT same image, she didn't even bother to trace it.

Make Art That Sells Bootcamp Assignment Sketches

I signed up for Lilla Rogers Studios MATS bootcamp that started on Feb 3rd, it's amazing to be part of such a great group of talented artists. As many of you know I have worked professionally as an artist for 18 years, but only have been doing my own art for about 8, because I was always working a million hours at the animation studios-which was great by the way, but I just never had time to do my own work. In the last two years I have really been focusing on my own stuff, but I never even thought about making art that sells. Well since I met Lilla via FB, I got connected with a licensing rep and landed two licensing deals for my pets, now I see a whole world of possibilities for my work. These are some iPhone mock ups for the first month's assignment. I may do other designs as well. I am also enrolled in a children's picture book course, so I am burning the candle at both ends, and of course working on a new picture book, an animation job at the end of the month and commi...

Wow What A Year-So Far & New Illos!

Wow-what a year it's been and it's only August!! We have so much more to go and that includes a presidential election in the fall--could be the most important one in our history--AND the holidays and all this during a pandemic----how did we get here?  Well, I won't pretend to understand why people are the way they are and why we are here but we are.  Here are some illustrations that I did just for fun so far since the beginning of the year.  I'm sorry for not posting as much but I'm also a writer and have been creating new courses and memberships for other writers and it's taken up a lot of my extra time as I still work full time for an online greeting card company here in California This said, if you'd like to check out my stuff for writers you can find it here Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy the drawings!!
