I love The Muppets. So a year ago, when I was contacted by the awesome folks over at CUDO (Champaign-Urbana Design Org) and agreed to participate in their 5th volume of the worldwide phenomenon PechaKucha, I knew exactly what my subject would be. After the break, see the official video of that presentation – featuring my illustrated Muppet adventure – and find out just what the heck PechaKucha is…
Here’s one from years back I’ve always enjoyed. ‘The Mime’ was done just for me – no commission – which is something I rarely do anymore. Mainly I doodle “for me,” for enjoyment; producing fully drawn-up goodness happens only once in a blue moon. Its something I’d like to carve more time out to do.
Ladies and gentlemen: The Mime.
Talking with someone today, the topic of comic strips came up. While I am actually working on some characters (and the world they live in) for a potential web strip, my thoughts drifted to two strips featuring Troupe Dynamic I produced for the Thrive Entertainment Guide.
See the strips and read more after the jump!

Coney’s Holiday Cookie Shoppe is open! Located in Downtown Decatur, it features cookies big and small – all delicious, of course – and assorted other goodies. And I’m decorating!
It breaks down like this: Flo bakes, I decorate. I’ve got peeps helping with the basic outlining and filling, but the faces are all 100% Jay. Here’s a peek at a couple’a Frankenstein trays; keep your eyes open for the Easter Egg cookie in the bunch (hint: its not easy being green). I’ll post some more later!
Rolled up here are some wax pencil sketches for Halloween cookie faces.
A bit of Random for this afternoon. The fam had an Easter Egg decorating contest this past year. Twas mainly for the kids, but they knew I’d want in on the action, too (duh!). Here’s what I came up with:
"AAAAAAAAAUGH!"
