Cars book

These are from a Cars book I illustrated in late 2010; it's a die-cut board book. The pink lines indicated the template of the book shape, and the text shown here is not final. The Cars franchise has always been a favorite of mine, and I'll always be grateful for the opportunities I had to work with these characters. 

I always got a kick out of the little Lightning McQueen toys he had on display in Mack's trailer, and the minivan with the mattress cracked me up... 

The Cars films are so clever in how buildings and even natural elements are "car-ified", and notice how the digital camera is mounted like a side-view mirror in the foreground...

Nemo illustrations

This was for a Finding Nemo short story published in the 2005 Disney Year Book called "Hide 'n Seek Friends", about a flounder who has a hard time fitting in, due to her eyes being on one side of her head. This property is one of my favorites, and it was so much fun incorporating a new character into their world. It was a cute little story, and I love how she saves her friends from a tiger shark by instinctively burrowing into the sand. Everyone has their weaknesses, but they also have their strengths.

New Golden Book

This is a new Big Golden Book called "Tales of the Force", due out in September 2017. Cannot wait for Episode VIII! (Hey, that rhymes...)

Mealtime Fun book

This was one of my first freelance jobs, back around 1995 or 1996. I did the tight pencils for this Mealtime Fun book, which was a cute little round board book, packaged with a fork and spoon. It must have been around the time we were working on the "Pomp and Circumstance" segment of "Fantasia/2000", because I had been working on Donald Duck quite a bit at that time. The classic characters are always a joy.

New Golden Book - "I am a Jedi"

Just got samples of the next Little Golden Book! Again, very grateful for the opportunity to work on these. So much fun. This one will be on shelves on January 5, 2016.

Little Golden Book - "Return of the Jedi"

So excited to get the opportunity to illustrate this Little Golden Book. This was really a blast! If you enjoy this one, please be sure to check out the rest in the series, by phenomenal artists like Chris Kennett. There is even a box set of the first six Episodes.

Dust-Up in the Desert

In 2009, I did the roughs and line art for a book called "Dust-Up in the Desert", about Lightning McQueen's off-road racing adventures. I believe the super-talented David Murray did the digital paintings.

Digital color paint by David Murray.

Helicopter

A spread I illustrated in a Random House Step-into-Reading book, featuring the Dinoco helicopter.

Pixar children's books

An assortment of Pixar-themed books I've worked on over the years, through Disney Publishing and Random House. 

Yo-Ho...

These are pencils I did back around 1998 for a coloring book. 

Mack

This is another illustration I sketched and painted digitally for "Go, Go, Go!", a Step into Reading book by Random House. 

Nemo pencils

These are some pencils I did for a Nemo short story in a 2005 Disney Yearbook, involving a new character I had the opportunity to design. Based on a flounder, she had eyes on one side of her body (like Mr. Johanssen in "Finding Nemo") and had trouble fitting in. Her hidden talent of camouflage was revealed when she instinctively hid in the sand from a tiger shark.

Kitchen thug

Another pencil from the "Tangled" activity book.
