I taught a workshop in Atlanta this past weekend. We ended up with a little bit larger group than normal and there was a higher than usual number of pro caricature artists thanks to the participation of a number of artists from A.J. Jensen‘s The Toonheadz caricature company. It was a great group and we had a lot of fun drawing together all weekend! If you want to participate in one of my workshops this year, you are running out of time! Chicago and Boston are sold out, and I have only two spots left in Phoenix. The one in Minnesota I just added has… READ MORE

While many Americans spend their Memorial Day grilling burgers and brats in the backyard, or floating around on a lake or river enjoying beers and the unofficial start of summer, it’s important to remember the reason for the day off. That reason is to honor the members of the United States Armed Forces who lost their lives in the service of our country. Their sacrifice, and the sacrifices of all our military service members, is the reason we are free to grill those brats and raise those beers. Thank you. READ MORE

I had to cancel my September Seattle workshop, but I have replaced it with one here in Minnesota! The workshops I do here take place only about 2 miles from the studio, and are unique in one way… they include an evening in my home and studio for the entire class! That’s right! The Lovely Anna and I host the class on the Friday night prior to the start of the workshop at our place. We’ll have a backyard cookout, adult beverages, Anna’s famous chocolate chip cookies and a tour of my studio looking at original art and other cool stuff, plus a look at… READ MORE

Here we go with another nauseating step on the chronological crawl through my work for MAD Magazine. This was the 99th issue my work appeared in, and fittingly enough this piece, a spoof the the prime time TV game show “The Wall”, was written by the same guy who wrote the very first piece I ever had printed in MAD… MAD‘s MADdest writer Dick DeBartolo! This first appeared in MAD #546, Aug 2017. This also ended up being the last time I did the art on a Dick De feature. Of all the writers I worked with at MAD, Desmond Devlin was far and away… READ MORE

Jerry Seinfeld‘s new movie “Unfrosted”, a fictional origin story of the “Pop-Tarts” breakfast pastry, was released for mass consumption today on Netflix. It happens that I did the art for another fake MAD cover prop ala “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”, only this one was for “Unfrosted”. This, of course, did not necessarily mean the cover prop would actually be seen in the film. I’ve done a number of projects for film and TV that never got seen or used in the end product. However the cover does make a brief appearance in the film, with Melissa McCarthy‘s character reading an issue while working… READ MORE
