I’ve been doing a lot of drawing lately! Sometimes you’ve just bombarded with ideas, and you’ve got to draw them all out and then work on them one at a time. I get a lot of my ideas from my writing, and others just sort of come into my head (inspired by things, I’m sure). In the case of Umbra, I got this idea from my writing.

Most of the time, I am too busy (or too lazy, really your preferable choice of words here!) to participate in a lot of the artist “events” that happen over social media. The past couple of years I’ve been trying to take more of an active interest in trending artist topics as a way of showcasing my artwork to new people.

Anyway, I like drawing bugs a lot, and I often see a flutter of bright white moths around my front porch light, so I got to thinking about the contrast of white on white and then black.

Recently, I had the pleasure of working with client Donnalee Lozeau of Southern NH Services. She was looking for an illustrator who would be interested in, on a very short schedule, creating an illustration that would be printed and gifted to National Community Action Foundation (NCAF) co-founder and CEO David Bradley. They wanted to thank David for all of his hard work in helping fight against poverty.
