Frog Story



Here is an updated version of my frog illustration. I've been playing around with Gouche and I like the brightness it gives to the paper.

Go Green and Buy a Flying Carpet

I couldn't resist drawing this quick sketch. A magic carpet would be a fantastic way to get around. What do you think?

Jellyfish Doodle

Couldn't sleep last night so I was up scanning a bunch of watercolor doodle cartoons I've done. Some of my doodles are characters that I might use later in different paintings.

I love jellyfish, very calming and peaceful. Although I have been stung and that' not fun.

Goin to the Aquarium

5x7 acrylic on canvas board

At the Aquarium of the Pacific by Craig Erick Chaffin
I saw this poem on www.famouspoetsandpoems.com

I saw a brilliant angelfish whose tail

and fins shimmered yellow until it turned

and silver spread like an undercoat of fur

when stroked against the nap, across its scales.

Black as caviar and rimmed with gold,

its eyes, though flat as dimes, looked deep as wells.

The clownfish cruising by above the shells,

its idiotic smile painted bold,

passed disinterested as if it’d seen

it all before. Maybe. But I've heard

fish see only black-and-white,

so why this purple puffer and iridescent green

parrot fish-- and for whom? It's absurd

to credit chance. Either for us or for the light.

To View a Fish




I brought my kids to a pool party two days ago and since I brought along my paints I painted this little acrylic painting out by the pool. It reminds me of a little fish I encountered in Grand Cayman a few years back while snorkeling. This little fish snorkeled with me all morning by my side. I loved that.
