  • Gingerbread Family

    I just liked this gingerbread family so much that I had to color them!

  • Wooly Ron (Swanson)

    My wife and I used to be just casual Parks and Rec watchers until recently, when we started the entire series from the beginning. What a great show and now I can see how well it pairs with The Office! Every character is hilarious and often relatable at times but Ron Swanson is a tv legend.

    I drew a sketch of Wooly Ron a week ago right after Drawlloween and decided not to post it until I colored it. I went for a different approach with this illustration using my graphic design skills. I work with Adobe Illustrator every day and I love the clean control of lines it can get, so I did my line work in that program and colored it in Photoshop as usual. I wish they would make a real version of Wooly Ron one day but for now you can get a print from my Etsy!

  • On the Way to Cape May (animation)

    Happy Memorial Day weekend from our family to yours! If I haven’t told you 50 times already, my great-uncle wrote the summer classic, ‘On the Way to Cape May.’ This is my little doodle of that ditty, inspired by my dad’s account of his trips to the shore with his family. I took some liberties with the model and make of the Country Squire, but the rest is based on facts from my dad’s stories.

    Here’s the Wiki link: On the Way to Cape May

    Here’s a little gif:

  • Oil Spill (Mermay 2018)

    I did a quick coloring of a sketch of the day from last year to kick off #mermay

  • The Goldbergs!

    Finally finished all of The Goldbergs! This was a different approach for me because I illustrated them one at a time without much regard to a composition of them all together. It’s haphazard but they work together well. Viva la Goldbergs!

  • Pops Goldberg

    Growing up we didn’t have a Pops around the house, we had a Nan! Nan had a lot of similarities to Pops Goldberg: she often wore leisure suits, she threw card parties in her mother-in-law suite, and she was young at heart. She was always there for my sisters and me and we adored her. Like Pops, she was our Jedi master, training us in the ways of the world and how to stay away from the Dark Side.

  • Murray Goldberg

    My dad is a salesman like Murray Goldberg but that’s where any similarities end. If anything my stepfather was a little like Murray- sort of grumpy and always grumbling, but deep down he was a teddy bear. Murray is like an armchair Buddha with the same words of wisdom for any situation: Don’t be a moron!

  • Barry Goldberg (Big Tasty!)

    I don’t have any brothers and I can’t say Barry Goldberg is like any of my family members. My younger sister had dark curly hair when she was a kid, but that’s about the extent of any similarities. Barry is a middle child like me, but his confidence and charisma are something I have always wanted but never quite had. I think Barry has hilarious observations and some of the best lines on the show. JTP!
