Illustration Friday - Save


When Grandma sends you a wad of cash for your birthday, the absolutely most boringest thing you could do with it is save it.

What about buying a whole shopping car full of vegetables?

Okay, maybe buying a whole shopping cart full of vegetables would be more boring. But saving it is second most boring thing.

What about buying a year's supply of underwear?


Ewww! I am NOT buying underwear with my birthday money - Gross! And I'm not gonna save it either - Umph!

Your scratchboard style is my favorite style of yours. Great linework, characters, and subtle textures.

She means business! No one wants to buy vegies or undies with gift money!

I like this style.

I love this "chunky" style and the characters you create within it. The illustration and the thoughts that go with it are perfectly fitting.
Very expressive and wonderful!

super cute! I love the scratchboard style! Is that a digital technique or the "real thing"?

Jenn, the little girl's expression is priceless. I swear that i give the same look when my husband tells me that I "don't need any more shoes."

You always have the best attitude in your illustrations. That is what makes them so much fun! She is adorable and no matter how cute that little piggy is saving your birthday money is BORING!@

When my son was younger he was once asked "What are you gonna do with that money,buddy? Are you gonna save it?"

"No. I'm gonna waste it."

This reminds me of that. :)
