This idea was prompted by this week's Illustration Friday theme, "Acrobat."

I chuckled while drawing it, hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Comfortable

This kitty looks very comfortable with himself, on his happy cloud. Have a lovely week!

Cards for Kids

Here's a rapid-fire illustration/logo job I did for a charity event benefiting kids with cancer. This one is a little bit Russell Benfanti, a little Bob Staake, and a whole lot of what you'll get out of me with no pencil sketch or pre-conceived ideas in my head. This whole thing took me about three hours, start to finish.

E is for Eat

This is my latest illustration in my weekly children's book project I've been working on, titled Robot Alphabet. This is letter E, for Robots Eat. This is actually based on a classic poster from the mid-20th century (the original of which can be seen here). As always, if you're interested in keeping tabs on my progress, you can find my regulary updated blog here. Also, here is a link to my other portfolio site.

D is for Dive

If anybody's been following along with my weekly robot ABC book project, you might have noticed that I missed posting what should have been the letter D last week. That's because my entire family (myself included) was hit by one nasty case of the flu. Well, I'm back from death's door, and this is what would have been week four: Robots Dive. You can check out the rest of my progress at my blog, Robot Alphabet. You can also always check out other work I've done and other news-worthy events at my portfolio site/blog: Mark Hammer Designs.

B is for Blast-Off!

Hey everyone, it's week two and my Robot Alphabet book is progressing nicely. If you missed out on my earlier post, the short version is that I am in the process of illustrating my first children's book. Each week I'll be illustrating another letter until I reach the letter Z, after which time I'll be self-publishing the book. Here is B for Blast-off. Hope you like it. If you'd like to track my progress you can always check out my new weekly blog here.

SFG: Science Fiction

Howdy y'all! To put it bluntly, 2007 really sucked for my wife and I. No need to go into details, but just to put it mildly, it seemed like every day brought one more bit of bad luck our way. Through it all, the one thing that was a constant bright spot in our lives was our three-year-old Lucas. So when 2008 began and Lucas asked me to make him a book about robots, that was all the inspiration I needed to try something I've never attempted before, namely, illustrate my first children's book. It's called Robot Alphabet, and I plan on blogging about it on a weekly basis, taking us all the way from A to Z (you can find the site here: http://www.robotalphabet.com/). The fact that this week's challenge involved Sci Fi, made it seem like the perfect time to announce what I'm doing to the world. Every week I'll be adding a new illustration showing the things robots do, starting with this week's entry: Robots Awaken. I'll also be posting sketches, doodles, tutorials, anything and everything that will demonstrate what I'm doing to create this book. When it's all done, I plan on publishing it through Amazon's BookSurge. I hope you check out my new site regularly. This is quite literally a labor of love for me.

Book proof

Today, I got the printer proofs for the book I've been working on. I look at proofs like this almost everyday at my '"real" job . This is the part of the projects I hate. I've had some real "Doh!" moments, finding things that were missed during weeks of looking at a project.
Luckily this looked pretty good. I was especially nervous about this project.

After many technical difficulties...

I am back after my little laptop got fried. All is well now after Apple fixed it pretty quickly and free to us I might add. It is not a good thing when you are sent the wrong upgrade and it makes smoke come out of your computer. So cross your fingers that this is the end of all that nonsense!

Playing with Painter

This is made in Corel Painter. It's been a while since I made something digital, and I had lots of fun playing around with this, experimenting with different brushes.
