My favorite suggestion to yesterday’s query “what should I draw today?” was Kelly’s “lots of crows.”

I got quite a few ideas from folks on Facebook and Twitter… including several who suggested a “May 21 Rapture” theme.. and some concepts that were so specific I couldn’t help but think “why don’t you just make that yourself?” Check out a few from the list:

• Avett Brothers “Murder in the City”
• A Wiener Dog
• Mother Theresa
• Tribute to the late Macho Man Randy Savage
• A little girl smelling a flower and from the flower comes out a rainbow that ends in the mountains (almost did this b/c it was just so weird)
• “Honest Abe” Lincoln with a halo
• What you see when you hear Shostakovich, Symphony No. 5
• Memories from Saved by the Bell (I’m sure I’ll do this eventually)
• Cheeseburgers
• a bird that learned it can fly underwater and the discovery it made
• a spiral coming undone
• a man turning into a city
• a fish
• leather pants

I loved the design so much that I’ve decided to make it available in the shop. Only 11 will be printed—the first of which will go to Kelly for making such a great suggestion.

Congrats Kelly!

You can get this in the shop now for a few bucks (and it’s a 5×7 so finding a cheap frame will be easy for you.)

Suggest a theme or idea you think I should illustrate and I’ll pick my favorite from the bunch. If your idea is selected I’ll send you a free print of your own idea!

A new free Star Wars inspired “Skywalker” wallpaper for your desktop, iPhone, iPad, etc. I think it will look especially cool on those new storm-trooper-esque white iPhones.

Just added one of my favorite prints to my shop. Smoking the Gun is part of an illustration series I started in 2010 about my travels around Michigan’s upper peninsula.

Announcing fellow Michigander Amy Mack was selected by random.org as the winner of the winner of my just-in-time-for-valentine’s-day print! The prize is a hand signed and numbered print out of a limited edition of just 13. It is a museum quality fine-art giclee created with high quality pigments and paper that will ensure it will last [...]

Enter in the next 24 hours to win one of these limited edition prints just in time for Valentine’s Day!

Here are a few of my favorite illustrations you may have seen around the internet over the past few months.

Over the past couple years I’ve amassed quite a collection of illustrations and designs, and I’m so excited to announce that they are now available for purchase in my online shop.

I’m excited to have a few of my pieces on display at the Traverse City Maker’s Market end-of-the-year “Holla-Day Bazaar.” This is a really cool event co-founded by my good friend Kelly Nogoski. It’ll be at the InsideOut Gallery in Traverse City this Saturday (December 11) from 10-5. I’ve collected a handful of my favorite [...]

I participated in the “qualifying” Layer Tennis match yesterday—hoping I’d do well enough to be considered for more high-profile matches in the future.
