Summertime is in full swing, so here’s an illustration in honor of everyone’s favorite Summertime treat: ice cream! I did this illustration originally for HappyReading.org for a children’s poem called Ice Cream Man. I think I did close to a hundred illustrations for that client with a fairly tight turn-around time, which lent the whole series a loose, fun, and energetic quality that I think works well for this type of project.
I got inspired by this week’s Illustration Friday challenge, team, to do a bunny soccer team. These challenges are a great opportunity for me to have fun exploring my Megapack digital brush set from the awesome Kyle T. Webster.
My entry for this week’s Illustration Friday challenge is from a cover illustration I did for the Graphic Artists Guild newsletter. The title of the piece is Intertubes, and comes from Senator Ted Stevens’ infamous comment that the internet is a “series of tubes.”
This week’s Illustration Friday submission comes from a children’s book I recently illustrated called Short Pump Bump.
It’s been awhile since I did anything for Illustration Friday, but I’ve been wanting to get back into it. I’ve also been doing Von Glitschka’s 21 Day Drawing Challenge, so I thought of combining the two this week since Day 7 is Draw What You Like. This was a ton of fun to draw. I recently downloaded an awesome set of Photoshop brushes- Kyle T. Webster’s Ultimate Megapack, and they have really opened up a whole new world of exciting possibilities.

Originally a t-shirt design I did for Utah Adventure Journal, I think this cowboy’s moustache fits the theme for the week reasonably well.
