What the Frank?!

My wife and I recently completed a marathon session of ‘It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia’ on Netflix. Frank Reynolds is my favorite part of that show, so I decided to illustrate him. Here are the end results!

Caricature of myself

Here is a caricature I did of myself for a project that wasn’t used. I was pretty happy with it, so I figured I’d post it up here. The caricature captures my goofiness/doofishness/awesomeness/bald.

If you or someone you know may be in need of a cartoon caricature version of themselves, contact me (Click HERE if you’re too lazy to go up to the top of the screen) and I would be glad to discuss it. Cartooning, and caricatures in particular, has always been a favorite pastime of mine, and I would welcome a chance to do more of it.

fitz magicThis little graphic I did last year for Nick Mendola is catching on like wildfire. I’m getting plenty of inquiries about it, so I decided to make some shirts. Since some of you jerks are stealing my art and selling these shirts anyway, I figure I may as well be the jerk selling them. I have struggled with the idea of getting back into shirts for a while, but the demand is such that I feel like this may work better than my last foray into the apparel world. Also, rumor has it that Ryan Fitzpatrick has seen this on a shirt already, and loved it. So, let’s do it. GET A SHIRT HERE

••NOTE: I had to change & clean the design up a bit for shirt production.

GERBE, VANEK and ON TO THE PLAYOFFS

The Sabres have made it into the postseason! To celebrate, I made this Gerbe graphic that I’ve been wanting to make. For old school NES fans, you’ll recognize the inspiration.

Nathan Gerbe Ice Hockey

Overall, I’ve grown to really like this Sabres team. While last year’s squad was a division winner, they didn’t show the guts and grit that the Sabres of 2010-2011 have shown. Nathan Gerbe has emerged as a team leader, and inspiration to watch. He was one of our better forwards last year in the first round loss to Boston, but it looked grim for him at the beginning of this season. Thank God the team stuck with him, and Nathan has shown Buffalo that he’s the kind of player we have been waiting to root for since they switched from red jerseys. Gerbe reminds me a little bit of Donald Audette in a way. He’s small, feisty and has one hell of a shot. That empty net goal he scored versus Montreal pretty much tells us all we need to know about his work ethic, and desire to win.

Speaking of a desire to win, Thomas Vanek has been wearing it on his sleeve. I’ve always bristled when people have called him lazy. He’s becoming a superstar in front of our very eyes. With the added ice time & responsibility, he’s become the Sabres Optimus Prime. The guy has been making plays everywhere on the ice, and his passes tonight against Philadelphia were laser-sharp. It would be a travesty if Vanek is not named the Captain of the Sabres for years to come.

Can’t wait until the playoffs! Go Sabres.

 

The Best Version of the Sabre Dance

Hey maybe they should toss this jam into the mix down at HSBC. This is not only hilariously awesome, but it’s just the kind of anthem fans have been clamoring for. Well, maybe not . . . but they should still play it on the reg. This is what I call “Jumbotron Gold”…. Continue Reading
