As time goes on I like to try different things. Differentish, anyway. It’s a sort of a style drift that keeps things interesting for me.  Lately I’ve rediscovered the pen, and put down the heavy brush line. I’ve always been grounded in line, my major influences being...

Dear Drawgers:    I was at my kid's school PTO meeting last week and they were looking for items for the spring silent auction. Signed copies of kid's books are always popular- I get many requests throughout the year. But what's really great is adding a framed,...

 I do a lot of little spots. As we see more and more publishing going online, small, iconic illustrations are as important as ever to make a clear point and augment the text with color and, hopefully, wit. I've always been a big fan of Stuart Goldenberg's work in the Times. The...

This last spring I had the pleasure of giving a presentation at the Mazza Museum of International Art from Children’s Books at the University of Findlay in Findlay, Ohio. I would have posted this much earlier, but for some reason all of my photos came out blurred - I put the post aside,...

These are some recent images. Funny- much of my work lately has been for newspapers, the senior medium- and much of it has been for the web, the new(ish) medium. I began my career thirty eight years ago this spring at The New York Times, when I was a senior at Parsons School of Design. My first...

Just an update of what's off the drawing table. I'm working with more texture lately although the idea is always the main focus. The chart guy is from earlier in the summer, but after what happened with Greece yesterday (that would be Greek Crisis #54, Nov. !st...I thought I'd...

For Slate.com today. The usual two hour deadline.The piece was about how Facebook just unashamedly copies it's rivals and that's how they prevail. I toyed with tracing, taking an impression like a rubbing, all too complicated. The F in the logo sure looks like a happy animal...

As the summer heat hits its peak, I'm thinking, of course, about ski design. Many of you don't or haven't skied in years, and revolutionary changes have taken place in the last fifteen years or so, inspired mainly by snowboarding. The first big breakthrough came in the early...
