A real throwback Thursday… going through my map cabinet I found this self-portrait from when I was maybe 10 years old? It’s not bad - I kinda looked like that. I like it.

My own child (an opinionated 9 year old) asked, “How is that possible? It’s so bad. You’re so good now?” 😆

This is in oil pastels and as I recall, I think we used turpentine to make them bleed a bit. As you can see, I have always loved colour and pattern.

Fingershot! One of Thunder Guardian’s villains. His bionic fingers are loaded with laser beams, grappling hooks, shrink rays and sonic blasts. The good guys better look out!

It’s a lot of fun taking my son’s character’s and drawing them in my own style. Such fun concepts!

Doing some drawing with my son, Will. Come on out this Saturday to meet both of us at @eastsidemags in Montclair, NJ where we’ll be signing copies of @a_kid_and_a_comic which runs our strip, THUNDER GUARDIAN!

My family found a drawing I made in first grade.

My 5-year-old has a poster board presentation of things she likes. For characters that she didn't have stickers, I (roughly) drew some, including SpongeBob, that she can then color. She wanted to draw Patrick Star all on her own. Not too shabby

When you think your science-minded great-nephew will like a Paint Your Own Solar System art kit, then his Mommy sends you proof that you were right! 🙂

TinyTyrant did this at school. Love it. I'm always grabbing old frames from thriftshops to put his art in. The framing needs a little formatting & I'll do that later but he wanted to see it on the wall before he left for school.

My 4 year old son drew this precious sunflower! ❤️

He chose that subject because he's really into Plants vs Zombies 😅
