My entry for this week’s Colour Collective challenge with the color prompt of Magenta. Another twitter user had posted a link to the song Spunky Onions by Billy Davis & the Legends, and it inspired me to create this GIF. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date.

Rest-Less-Nests
Vandyke Brown was the color prompt for this week’s Colour Collective challenge. I was inspired to create this in honor of World Egg Day. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]
Room Run
Here is an illustration for this week’s Colour Collective challenge with the color prompt of Jade. I initially wanted to draw a group of mushrooms running but only got time to draw this one. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]
Watusi And The Emerald Serpent Back-Cover
This is an illustration I drew for one of the back-covers in a new mini-comic collection by Dale Martin, available for purchase here. In the story-line the dog Watusi discovers that he inherited an emerald mine. This gave me an idea to reference the great cartoonist Carl Barks. I must say I had a ball drawing this for Dale–it’s always a treat to draw Watusi whenever I get the chance. [Note: This post is backdated. Image was posted on this blog 03-01-18.]
Babel Fish
My entry for this week’s Colour Collective challenge with the color prompt of King’s Blue Light. I posted this illustration on International Translation Day, so I thought a Babel Fish would be appropriate. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]
Small Business
This week’s illustration for the Colour Collective challenge with the color prompt of Orange. I got the idea to draw this because I noticed September was National Honey Month. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]
Look Both Ways
Sage Grey was the color prompt for this week’s Colour Collective challenge. Crossing busy roads is always a challenge but luckily this fellow has a bit of an advantage. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]
Eye Sky
My entry for this week’s Colour Collective challenge with the color prompt of Pale Turquoise. This was a busy week so this GIF was a bit of a quick one for me. [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date. Added to blog 03-01-18.]
Rotten At Public Speaking
This week’s illustration for the Colour Collective challenge with the color prompt of Venetian Red. In fictional works rotten tomatoes are often thrown at bad public speakers, so I wondered what if a rotten tomato itself was also “rotten” at speaking.

Give Your Editor A High Five!
Warm Grey was the color prompt for this week’s Colour Collective challenge. I really wanted to draw a typewriter for this one, but wasn’t quite sure what the typewriter should be doing. I eventually decided to give a nod the great editors out there who give invaluable support to writers & artists. Editors are awesome! [Note: This post is backdated to the twitter post date.
