The Devil's Grist Sketches

 

So, I will be working on some illustrations for a book that will be in collaboration with a friend. These will be new drawings for an 1883 book of Detroit mythology and folklore, with updates on what these areas look like now. It's still in the planning stages, but I am doing some sketches and designs for what those pages will look like. 

Some of the imagery and descriptions are just great. These sketches above are for a story called The Devil's Grist about a one half owner of a grist mill who curses that she 'will leave her part to the devil.' Legend has it that during violent storms one can see said devil working away in the ruins of the mill, claiming what is rightfully his. The location of this event is kind of close to where I live, a place called Windmill Pointe. I'm having fun with these sketches and will post more about this as it proceeds. 

Sh!tshow Page Profile: Derek Chauvin

 

Pulled directly from today's headlines, someone attempted the murder of a convicted murderer, whilst incarcerated. Now, far from me to judge this with skewed eyes, but maybe all of this could have played out in a much better way. Too bad, Chauvin aligned himself with hateful ideology. I would like to add that he is in stable condition.

You can see more of these types of questionable characters in my new and upcoming book of caricatures, 86 Sycophants, Charlatans, leeches, and Opportunists of the Donald J. Trump Sh!tshow, with a foreword by Noel Casler.  The Kickstarter campaign is currently underway. I'm over half way funded and you can check out the details by clicking on the link below:

Sh!tshow Page Profile: William Barr

 

Remember when there was a time that they actually DID use the DOJ as a political weapon? You know, instead of, say, upholding the law.

This is a page from my new book of caricatures, titled 86 Sycophants, Charlatans, Leeches, and Opportunists of the Donald J. Trump Sh!tshow. The Kickstarter is running now and we are half way to  our goal with just over two weeks to go. If you'd like to pledge your support and get the book and maybe some original art, click on the link below:

The comedian and producer Noel Casler provided the foreword for the book and he actually worked with The Former Guy, so he knows a thing or two about the subject matter. 

 

P Is For Princess Leia...

 

P is for Princess Leia

who had buns in her hair.

Hey... I needed something to rhyme with 'lair.' So, have a little compassion for my mad writing skills, ok? 

This one is actually the second drawing that I did for the letter 'P.' My first rendition was sorely lacking in capturing a better essence of Leia, so it had to be fixed. I even had some art direction for this one from an art director. Hence, it's better than it was.
