Client: Ferocious Quarterly (Blogrocious)
Link: When the Pocket Collapses

I made this illustration to accompany a story by Jason Roemer for the Ferocious Quarterly blog. The yin/yang dogs refer to the balance in the scene between the chaos of the dogs’ activities and the relative calm and shut-down attitude of the main character.

Kidney Kare Run 2011

Client: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, UNC Kidney Center

Every spring, the UNC Kidney Center organizes a walk/run fundraiser for their research. I’ve had the opportunity to work with them every year since their inception and I always have fun figuring out where to put the next Carolina Blue anthropomorphised kidney. This is the sixth year, so there are six kidneys.

Halloween Comic 2010

David — Sun, 31 Oct 2010 19:00:22 +0000

My friend Elio made comics for his trick-or-treaters, and I loved the idea, so I stole it.

I made a print & fold PDF version as well, with a coloring page on the back: download / folding instructions.

Monster GIFs

David — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 05:44:35 +0000

Prompted by a friend on a night with a full-moon, I made a short animated GIF loop of a man turning into a werewolf and back again. I had so much fun with it that I just kept going, and I ended up making six different monster-y animations altogether. I collected the entire group of monsters here.

Hik Hyke Hoak

David — Fri, 15 Oct 2010 16:00:32 +0000

The fantastic illustrator, Steve Wolfhard, created a great excuse for a bunch of other illustrators to create some autobiographical characters in the spirit of Pokemon. His Portrait-Dex site compiles these efforts.

My entry combines my love for hiking with my terrible sense of direction, along with a revival of my dormant Latin verb conjugation skills.
