My good friend and fellow Kubert School student Sean Tiffany has been doing a series of "From the Vault" posts on his blog. In these, he brings out some old piece of artwork from school or early in his career. Always one to steal from someone smart, I’m going to do the same thing here [...]
Recently, I was called upon to draw a logo for a cleaning service called Melissa’s Magnificent Cleaning. I did it pretty quickly, but it was also a lot of fun. I like the pose and the attitude. The final file was all vector, which is still a bit of an effort for me since Adobe [...]
It’s been a long haul with over 100 guests attending (and, by extension, 100 caricatures to do) but I finished the cover for Love and Capes #12. There will be two versions, the "Love" verson (featuring Mark and all other superheroes in civilian garb) and the "Capes" edition (featuring Mark as the Crusader, and superheroes [...]

Since 2002, I’ve been the caricaturist for the Cleveland Metroparks Boo at the Zoo. It’s a Halloween event for kids that the Zoo holds the two weekends before Halloween. It’s been a blast. It originally was a two day event, and over the years has become a four-day extravaganza over two weeks. And, while drawing [...]

Man, waking up at 4:00am will mess you the frak up. I felt like I was in a haze all day, even after I slept for an hour after the show. I managed to pump out a couple more parts of the Scene cover I’m doing. I even finished it this morning (and by morning, [...]
Yesterday I did five hours (or as I call it, The Nickle) of caricatures at a COSE event in Little Italy here in Cleveland. It was one of those near-perfect events. I never had a line, per se, but I did have a steady stream of subjects. At most, there were two or three kids [...]
I’m sure it’ll come as no surprise, but the Mystery Game Board piece was done for Scene Magazine, in the issue that comes out today. They’re running a feature on Cleveland’s screwed up politics, and wanted a CandyLand type game board with several Cleveland incidents on it. So, everything from the sink hole to the [...]
The Big Project is done and approved by my art director. I’m not going to post any more art until it prints sometime next week, and then I’ll show a lot more of it. I just want to allow the client to debut it. It was a lot of fun to work on this one. [...]
