New Illustration for “North”


For the Northern Vermont University Visual Arts 2018 Faculty Art Exhibit “North” I exhibited a number of illustrations that I created over the past few years. I also spent time creating a new illustration for my “A is for Alliteration” book that related to the the theme of North.

This one is titled “N is for a nearsighted Napoleonic navy nabob navigating nervous narwals not so nicely through narrows near numbats nibbling nachos, nine nefarious newt ninjas, and naïve nerdy naked mole-rats wedding neither necklaces nor neckties 'neath the nebulous northern night.”

I like long titles.

Bow Tie Guy of the Day: Numbat

Numbat (ˈnəmˌbat)

The numbat is a small endangered anteater from Western Australia. It is also known as the banded anteater, marsupial anteater, or walpurti. This marsupial once inhabited a large portion of Western Australia, but the introduction if the European red fox in the 19th century almost completely eliminated the species.

Since 1980 conservation has helped in increasing the population of the population.
