Its so funny to see all my work getting made and sold ('60s and '70s in this series SOLD OUT) because my boss at this place, HATED me and everything I turned in.. and yet it's all getting sold. Hehehe

This was part of a SNOW GLOBE series that I came up with and pitched to the sales rep/account exec for the Hard Rock Cafe store. It's just one of my series that was made and sold to them.

I'll keep posting them as I see them. It's hard to keep up with these and also the Disney ones. Since I am not working at this place - the aforementioned boss let me go cuz he didn't like me or my work about 7 months ago - it's not always easy to find them, especially Disney, but I am always excited to see my work made.

That was my first real consumer products job and I did hundreds of designs for both Hard Rock and Disney (as well as a few others). It's still a thrill for me to see them once they are made. I am used to seeing my drawings in books and on the big screen but to have a physical something is really cool. I miss that job a lot, it's a bummer that the owner just didn't like me or my work, I loved the job a lot.

This is the original one sheet that I turned in. They had some revisions and the '90s is totally different, although I still love my boy band and grunge pins. (I guess you can't use the Space Needle, which I didn't know at the time cuz I was new)

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!!

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...
