View post →A quick drawing of a few lotus flowers at  the China Pavilion at Epcot. The petals of the lotus flower symbolize the expansion of the soul. I like that.

View post →A drawing/watercolor I made for a book I wanted to illustrate, Anansi Stories. The Anansi myth is from Africa. Basically Anansi is a trouble maker. He is mainly represented as a spider, but I thought it might be fun to make him human. In this picture/drawing Anansi is collecting up all the common sense in […]
