This one went to Barbara. Barbara and I met once or twice many years ago. She was one of the first people who friended me after I put up my MySpace page.

Left Hand – Color
I have birthmark at the base of my thumb. I tend to forget it’s there unless I’m looking at the hand. Obviously I wasn’t looking at my hand when I was doing the coloring here.
Left Hand – Black and White
This card went to Cherie and Rob in Oregon. Yeah, it’s my left hand. Sometimes it’s important to just draw what’s in front of you.
Finnegan – Color
This is Tom Finnegan, the protagonist of Finnegan’s Brink. Finnegan is a graphic novel that Nizzibet and I worked on back in the early ’90s. The publisher who commissioned it shut down before we finished it and the art went into a box. One of our long term plans is to finish the story and get it in to print.
Finnegan – Black and White
This was sent to Nizzibet. You think I’m going to just send one card to my honey?
Footsie – Color
I love Photoshop. I can spend hours testing out different effects, none of which actually improve the illustration. That’s why I try to do most of the heavy lifting for an illustration on paper before I scan it in to the computer. It’s still too easy for me to waste time noodling with filters.

Footsie – Black and White
These feeties went to Gregg Victor.
Wild Things – Color
Sunday morning. Get out of the city. I’ll burn it down while you’re gone.
