Still looking for that million dollar contract? Aren't we all. If only there was a design and illustration clause to the Federal stimulus package.
The other day a friend at the gym was looking at disgust at his mp3 player. He said, "There's nothing but bad news. I'm going to stop listening to anything related to business."
It can be tough out there to get work. But don't panic. A designer can still find work out there. Here are some things you can do to keep the freelance fires burning.
This poor worm is thinking his time is up!
I drew this illustration in Adobe Illustrator. The wig for the bird cost extra, but was worth it.
Man resolves to get in shape while the cat resolves to catch some z's. I hate it when my pets appear superior to me. I drew this in Adobe Illustrator.
Old guy meets his jack O'Lantern twin.
This was drawn in Adobe Illustrator CS3.
I illustrated this activity for this page. This is in pen and ink with a crow quill pen. There are six items hidden in the picture; an oil lamp, rope, donkey, Bible and ladybug.

$175 Burger: Do You Want Fries with That?
I would worry if I ate that expensive burger even if I could afford it. I'd worry about what a waste of money when others struggle to feed themselves

When I heard this week's word, it made me think of all the talk I've heard about saving money. People say we are in a recession now. It's time to save that money, whether or not it falls from the sky.
When I heard the word, homage, I thought of paying respects to the ever industrious animal of the insect world.
Ants fascinate me whenever I have a chance to see what they are carting off. How can such a little creature lift such big things?
I wonder what my dog and cat do while I am at work. I can imagine my puppy helping herself to the ice cream. The problem is, the cat would demand a cut in the dog's findings.

If the world could talk, what would it say?
Would he/she really be in a business suit, or would it be wearing some natural fiber mu-mu skirt?

I made this sketch four years ago when there was another business accounting scandal. It reminds me how world issues will affect us whether we want to admit it or not.
I created the finished art in Adobe Illustrator.
The theme for Illustration Friday this week is "Tales and Legends." I took liberty with "tales" and, well, I made it "Legends and tails." This morning, I was thinking about new year's resolutions and the frivolity that goes with new year celebrations. It doesn't take too much for reality to set in.
It take a little work to rejoice after the new year joy.
How's your new year resolutions going?
