Illustration Friday - 80's



The 80's - from Plaids to Parachutes.

My early 80's memories are of me hiding out in front of the old Coachlite Skate Rink when my Mom made me wear some plaid pants to school skate night. They probably don't even count as 80's garb as I was 3rd in line for the hand-me-downs. Later in the 80's, I was sooo cool that I proudly wore my parachute pants - ONLY at home. I wasn't quite cool enough to wear them in public. The 80's also saw the "Summer of Pants" but that's another story altogether.

Thanks.

Illustration Friday - Buzz



It's been awhile since I've submitted to IF. My intention was to always use IF as a tool to create new work but when today's word was posted I had to submit this. I just finished this job yesterday. It is for an educational program involving Racecars, Math and Science. It was a fun project and my first 'Vonster' influenced piece. I was and am inspired by his color palette.

thanks.
