Mr.Peabody & Sherman

So I know this post is several months late, but I figured there is still a few weeks left in 2014, so I'll post some work that I did for the 2014 release of Mr.Peabody & Sherman.  These are some beat boards I was asked to do several years ago for an earlier version of the movie.  The Art Team and Leadership on the project was great, and so the paintings that you see above is a sample of what I contributed to the show very early on.

At the Old Haunted House

Just in time for Halloween is a new book I just finished illustrating.  It's titled "At the Old Haunted House" and was written by Helen Kettman.  It's a spooky book filled with Ghosts and Ghouls and everything the slithers and goes bump in the night.  The pictures above and below are from the book, with the text not included.  You can find it in stores and online HERE

Band Shirt

A few years back, I was asked to create some art for a band t-shirt. They wanted something with a split screen idea, and so we ended up with this idea of 1/2 astronaut, 1/2 alien, in a Jim Flora-ish insipred design.
