boba = yum

Around Christmas time last year I did this group caricature/cartoon of some of my friends (I'm holding the boba on the right). It was a new style for me and was experimental. I enjoy drawing people this way. it's fun and loose and I don't have to get caught up in the details.

Illustration Friday - Garden

One of my neighbors growing up had a full-size, yet fake well in their front yard. It was surrounded by a lawn and a garden and I used to attempt to chuck pennies into it from the sidewalk (this vexed my neighbor greatly, I think). So whenever I see a well I think of that house and while "well" isn't the IF topic this week... I can connect the two thru my mischief-making memories. This here's a card I did for my dad a few months ago. It's in a cut-paper style I've been doing for Lakeshore lately.
