More Coloring Pages fro VPR

Here are two more coloring pages that were illustrated for the VPR's But Why? A Podcast for Curious Children. This is  for the episode “Do Animals Get Married?” 

In addition to listening to the episode, I did further research to find that in addition to rats and chimpanzees, dogs laugh as well. I also found a way to include a bow tie for the hornbill wedding. It just made sense.

“But Why” is a podcast that take s all types of curious children's questions from all around the world and then spends about a half asking experts to answer the questions.

The coloring pages are now available to be down loaded and colored at their blog here. In the future they will be available at the actual site of the pod cast.

 I will be coloring them myself soon.

Its the Year of the Dog Happy New Year!

This day marks the Chinese New Year and the beginning of the year of the dog.  I chose to depict the shih tzu a breed of dog that originated from China.

What makes this year special is that we had the opportunity to host two university students from China for three weeks. It was joy getting to know them and learn more about China. I was also born in the year of the dog.

Happy New Year!

I drew this portrait of one of my sister's dogs, Mr Wilson, as a Christmas gift for her. I thought I would start the year off by posting it.

I am not one to set specific resolutions as I set goals throughout the year. In looking back, I realize that I did draw more last year. It got spotty around August when school picked up with new responsibilities, but overall I did well. Here is to a new year with more drawing. One of my goals now is to post a drawing, Bow Tie Guy or something else, five days a week.

Brementown Musicians at Vermont Children's Theater

I just finished the illustration for The Brementown Musicians poster. It will be playing at The Vermont Children's Theater on June 27, 28 and 29. My youngest daughter is the sheep. Nothing like the challenge of getting a donkey to play the kazoo.

Dr Dolittle

Just finished the poster for The Vermont Children's Theater production of The Adventures of Doctor Dolittle. The best part was my 2 year old son recognized all the animals except the pushmepullme.
