Happy 13,000

13,000 hits is nothing for some blog sites; however for me, I don't think I could even count that high. Looks like I've just hit this milestone in just a few short years without really trying. Who is looking at this thing anyway? Become an official follower of the blog or leave a comment why don't you. Thanks to those of you that have followed my progress, left comments, and encouraged me along the way. To celebrate, here is a tease for an upcoming project/event.

Becky's Birthday Card

The second comic book version of Becky. This one illustrates some running attire I gave to her for the spring. I gave it to her attached to a lanyard. A dialogue bubble saying “I’m older than you” was added. The deal was she could have anything she wanted until my birthday as long as she wore the picture round her neck. I think she wore it for an hour tops.

Father's Day 2007

Dear old Dad.

Mrs. Incredible

If there ever was a Mrs. Incredible it is my wife Becky. Inspired by her marathon training while filling her role as a full-time mother, I sketched this picture for her Christmas present in 2006—some under armor gear perfect for outdoor winter training.
