MORE SUPERHERO FUN...and other sketches

As promised in the last post, I will be putting some of the sketches that my son did from our superhero game. Here is the latest: ALIEN MAN!

I have had to make some time for myself the last couple of days to get some stress out of the system. Consequently, I have taken the pen in hand and doodled what has come to mind. Some of it isn't really noteworthy, but a couple of the doodles I liked. I'll include them all, and you decide what is noteworthy or not.

And finally, life isn't complete with another gratuitous sumo...

Super Hero Fun with my boy

For the past two weeks my wife has been ill and unable to be as involved as normal with the family. It's been sad for us, however, it has given me an opportunity to spend a lot more time with my children. The other night my son and I were playing a game with our sketchbooks. He would guess a name of an unknown superhero (something that nobody has heard of yet) and I would draw it. Conversely, I would pick a name for him, and he would come up with his version of a superhero. We had a blast doing it, and he made a ton of drawings. I'll be posting them here over the next few days because THEY ROCK! Here is his first:

Portrait Exchange

I talked with Kerstin Klein in Germany the other day to collaborate on a project with her. She sent me a picture, which I used to do this portrait, and she is working on one from a picture that I sent her. This is a fun project that is happening between artists throughout the world and are being posted on blogs here and there.
