Proportional Preference


Texaco FatMan Bank (Repro)




Fat's Domino



The Sculpture of Fernando Botero


As an illustrator there is a proportion that appeals to me.

(The above sampling a representation.)

Though, I don't think there's much of it in my drawing. It's mostly in three-dimensional objects that I see.

Think I need to play with it.

She's Got Obama Arms


Another Star Telegram piece. (Becoming a quasi-regular in their health section, with another one assigned this week.)

The article was fun, about an editor who decided to develop muscular Michelle Obama arms. It's a piece of advice I should follow myself.

Holiday Eating

The Fort Worth Star Telegram and I go way back. I was their sports editorial cartoonist for almost five years. (One of two newspaper weekly sports editorial cartoonists in the country, thank you very much.) Now they send me gigs from time to time. Here's one from November, right before the holidays. Sadly, with my eating this holiday, I was the guy in the gravy.
