Daddy Dollar Time!
My wife had the awesome idea for “Daddy Dollars” as a reward for our daughter Eva. They will be something concrete she can earn while she is working towards a bigger goal. Once she gets 10 “Daddy Dollars” she get’s a trip to Chuck E. Cheese or Bounceland. Eva seems pretty excited and I was pretty happy with the little “Daddy Dollar” drawing. And yes, that...

Cleopatra in Spaaaaaace! and a Mexer Copy
This is my version of Mike Maihack’s webcomic heroine Cleopatra in Spaaaaaaace!. It’s a fun comic, check it out! I drew this in my sketchbook during some open office hours last week.

Dancing Family and Someone Talked About Me!
I’m starting off with an image because that’s always more interesting than some dumb writing (at least on my blog.) But sadly, I do need to use some words to communicate. So, I’ve been keeping busy with things while I have been absent from this blog. The deadlines got pretty hectic for a while, but they should be great during the Christmas season. I’ll keep posting the...
