Goldfish on Canvas.

Julia, Goliath and Spike are on canvas! Deborah Becker with State Farm Insurance fell in love with my Goldfish Trio illustration. She requested that I would produce a large scale 24'x36' canvas print for her office in downtown Eau Claire, WI. I've had very good luck with my 3D images reproduced on canvas but I've never printed an image at such a large scale. The final printed result turned out absolutely marvelous and proudly hangs in Deb's office accompanied by my April Rain print.


-Before delivering the Goldfish Trio canvas to Deb I snapped a quick photo of the print with it's inspiration.

Coloring Book Weekend!

Andrew, Erik and I had another coloring book party! I'm not talking one night of Michigan, Vista Fleet, Colorado and Wisconsin Activity Book fun. No, I'm talking a whole weekend of Movies and Coloring! I however didn't join them in the coloring frenzy because I was busy inking the newest Activity Book... Pennsylvania! It's ironic that PA was the next book in the Adventure series because just this fall Erik and I visited Pennsylvania for the Highlights Illustrators Party. Little did I know the trip would be great research for the project. The PA pages certainly have the most technical and historic illustrations of any of the books to date.
