It worked out that that there was a blank spot at the end of the 2002 Wondercon program book. I was asked to do an illustration to fill the space.

Wondercon CBLDF Illustration
This illustration was done for a page describing the activities and membership of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund in the 2002 Wondercon program book.
Wondercon Page Florish
In 2002 Labor of Love was commissioned to design the Wondercon program book. Jason did all the design work and I contributed a few illustrations to spice up otherwise dull parts of the pages.

Every year for her birthday I try to do a portrait of Nizzibet. This one is from 1997 or 1998.
Burn Baby Burn
Huh. I think this is the last Backyard Enterprises area rug design. We’ll move on to posters, brochures and incident art next weekend.
Read the Label
Only a few more of these area rug designs to go. There will be more Backyard Enterprise materials to follow but there will be a bit more range in the coloring to those.
Keep Those Barrels Safe and Dry and Warm and Snuggly
Doesn’t that look comfy?

There will be no further posts until the 18th. I’m flying up to Anchorage, Alaska for a wedding and I don’t expect to have internet access while I’m there. And even if I have access it would probably be rude to take much advantage of it. It’s not like the family gets together very often.
Chemicals Are Dumb
Another Saturday, another cautious message about the intellectual capacity of toxic substances.
Sargasso, the Series
This was the final cover art for my Sargasso proposal. As I said, the proposal was rejected. All of our proposals were rejected. This wasn’t really surprising. Based on the cartoons that were already been presented on the company’s website our work wasn’t likely to be a fit. And that’s fine. Our stories are still ours. If things go well, eventually we’ll present them to the world in some form. Maybe as novels. Maybe as comics. Maybe even as cartoons. Who knows?
The Sargasso Sea
I contributed two proposals to serialized internet cartoon pot. The first was The Cauldron, a police procedural set in a world of magic. The second was a very loose adaptation of William Hope Hodgson’s The Boats of the Glenn Carig that I called Sargasso.
The Cauldron got rejected because it was thought to be too similar to a television series that was about to begin on the UPN network. I don’t remember why Sargasso was rejected.
