Some guy named Mitch.

I was doing some doodling and came up with this character. Not sure what his story is, or if he even has one, but I can tell you he's a lot of fun to draw. So far I figure he's an archeology major in college and despite his massive frame, he's a bit of a nerd (and he's a bit dense). He lives with his parents, has a cool utility belt, goes on secret worldwide missions and wears his little sister's pink backpack. ..and his name is Mitch.

What the heck have I been doing?

Haven't posted in about a month, although I have been doing quite a bit of drawing. First of all, Black Cat Bone is steadily moving along. I'll post some teaser stuff up here soon. Also, I've been involved in a weekly drawing challenge over at http://caricatureconnection.blogspot.com/ Caricature Connection artists are invited to submit artwork according to a theme introduced every Monday. It's not a contest, or even a competition. It's just meant to share your artwork with the other artists. I've been helping to run the challenges every week and participate. Here's my stuff.

Week 1: Trick or Treat.

One night at work a guest asked me what I was going to dress up as for Halloween. I told her "A caricature artist" Then I wondered what a caricature artist costume would look like...

Week 2: The Yeti.

Here's the yeti in a candid moment, early one morning retrieving the paper in his wife's bathrobe.

Week 3: The Politician.

Dubya.

Week 4: Whatcha' Watchin'?

My favorite new show Heroes, a very close second behind LOST.
