PHOENIX

Pretend the Headless Horseman burns up in a blazing Jack O' Lantern fire at the end of each Halloween and is reborn from the ashes for the new year's Halloween. It's the best I could come up with!

HAPPY NEW YEAR Illustration Bloggers!

Peace

Teatime, Christmas tree, fire, cat (that would really be in the lap), book, quiet, solitude= Peace.

I hope you have a great Christmas and Holiday Season, you are fine folks!

HELP

Catching the moon with the help of some small fairies (this is entirely possible).

I hope your week is "Superfly"!

Mask!

It's hard for me not to long for Halloween when we talk about masks- so here is this poor character pining away for the holiday that just passed.

Have a great week!

Might

It might snow this Christmas!

I hope you have a great week!

INVENTION

It's bigger than the Segway- the new "Christmas Elf Scooter"!

Have a wonderful week (I hope)!

Clear

Isn't this a hoot? Clear, cold sunset at holiday season.

Y'all take care!

Wind?

Wow! I really hoped we'd have a theme like "Haunted" or "Halloween"! Well, here is Johnny Paul digging a grave on a windy Halloween night.
Happy Halloween!

Ghost

What a great subject to work from! Ghost! My best friend and I talked about a career as ghost hunters but wisely realised we'd both die the first time we saw one so dropped that plan. I did, however , grow up to see a real ghost... it was witnessed by me and my young son from two different points of view ... weird!
I sketched this lady while watching that great old movie "Gaslight" on the Turner Classic Moives network.... I love that channel.

Happy Haunting!

Ray Bradbury Haunted Dream House

Here is a link to a Ray Bradbury inspired haunted house commission I just sent to its new owner (thanks Phil!)... I hope you enjoy it! Happy Halloween!

Smitten

When I was in the 2nd grade my Dad visited my class and drew some Halloween pictures on large pieces of paper... it made a huge impression on me and I am smitten with the dear, lonesome, spooky sensation that occurs only in October.

Happy Halloween!

Trouble!

This is supposed to be kids bothering an old pet... I found in my childhood that this situation often resulted in TROUBLE!

I hope you enjoy this upcoming weekend and week!

Quiet

I like quiet...
Here is what I call the "Autumn Sunset Fairy Tree" or "The Sunset Tree". I am a shameless fan of old fairy illustrations. I looked at those books as a child and put their credibility right up there with every other subject in school, probably at even a higher level of truth. Thank God I can still go there...

I hope YOU have one of the top ten weeks of your life!

Hey, the Fair is in town! I'm going to go sketch people shamelessly eating corn dogs and french fries!

PHOBIA

I guess the fear of fear is a phobia... here is a simple comic I made... you know, click each one then email if you want a link to the rest of the story (it is short)

Waiting for the season's change...
Have a wonderful week!

Farm

I have no farm... but how about John Keats flying over a farm... in Autumn?

Have a great almost Autumn weekend!

SAFE!

Safe at home... getting ready for OCTOBER!
Have a great, long weekend!

RUN!

You know me... Halloween is coming! Run from the Headless Horseman!

I hope your week is great!

PLAY!

"PLAY" is a great topic! This is a pretty accurate self portrait (actually the wings are a little less blue ).
I hope you have an excellent day and week!

CAPTURE

A plot to capture the moon!
Have a great weekend!

CLEAN

A clean, Autumn sunset (with some little fairies).

Y'all have a great weekend and following week (Autumn is coming)!

hAuNtEd sKyLiNe

Greetings! I defaulted to a haunted skyline sketch. I hope you have a great week!

sTiCkY

I'll have to go with the sticky candy.

Take care... I hope you have a wonderful weekend and 4th!

Rain!

Singin, in the rain! Yes sir!

Thank you for visiting... I hope your weekend is memorable and the week that follows too!

Dance

Here's a little dance band.
I hope you have a great weekend (and week)!

Halloween Cake!

I baked this illustration just for you!

Have a great weekend!

Sorry

"Sorry", that's an easy one. I've been sorry so many times that...(That what?) I don't know, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better! I hope y'all have a great weekend!

Illustration Friday CHAOS (Angels and Devils)

I had to rely on an older picture because of a too busy weekend (Mother's Day, School Play and more). Have a great weekend! Random

Illustration Friday "FAT"

The last skinny man in America escapes with his life (and the last jelly doughnut) from a supersized mob with trendy flip-flops and goatees (there, I've said it).
