Roger is actually a Hamster, but I needed something to use as my inspiration for this animated character used for a film I was involved with a couple of years back called "chipmunk vx. Warrior.

The last year was a tough one. While seeing Robyn(my wife 2b through her battle with cancer I watched my best furry pal slowly pass away from it. After 17 years of good times with him I can say with much ease he was the best cat or even pet I've had. He was more of a dog and definitely liked dogs too. He is also the inspiration behind my Cake story as well as his canine sidekick Pig. May they both rest in peace I dedicate this post to the two finest pets I've known.
This picture dates back from my days in school when I'd only use a mouse for video games.

This isn't my pet... technically he belongs to my roommate. I love him to death though, and I wish I could afford a dog of my own... but for the time being, Pig Pug provides me with most of the fun of a dog and none of the responsibilities. He also reminds me surprisingly of the english bulldog I grew up with. Maybe I'll do a special piece for him by week's end.

He's been gone for about 2 years now, but Skippi the Schipperke was the coolest dog I ever owned, a great friend, and a constant companion for about 13 years – he left his mark (everywhere), and he won't be forgotten. If you're not familiar with the breed, imagine sharing your home with a canine version of the Tasmanian Devil! Skippi was also the most amorous thing ever on 4 legs. If he could be reanimated it wouldn't require an evil mad scientist, and his hunch-backed assistant, working in some laboratory on a dark and stormy night... I think this would do the trick.

This is Ashley, my family's ancient cocker spaniel. 15 1/2 years young!
And these rascals, though now deceased, are Popke and Puddin' Pot Pie. I misses them ._.

I just recently bought a Boston Terrier puppy two months ago. Here are two illustrations and a vinyl toy I painted to look like her. I would love to do a new illustration but if I do I think my friends and coworkers will have me admitted to a psychiatric hospital.

have never heard of him, created such comic characters as Spider-Man (with Steve Ditko), The X-Men ( with Jack Kirby), The Hulk (with Jack Kirby), The Fantastic Four (with Jack Kirby), Iron Man (with Larry Lieber), The Avengers (with Jack Kirby), and many, many more superheroes that you probably read stories about and see at the movies now. Stan Lee created Spider-Man with Steve Ditko way back in 1962. He wrote his first comic in May of 1941 (which happened to be a Captain America Comic). He has been everything from a writer, editor, publisher, movie maker to “Chairman Emeritus of Marvel Comics” in his long career in the comic’s field. He is a living legend that all whom love comics should love and respect. Read this book to find out even more about this man.
Spider-Man’s first appearance in Amazing Fantasy #15 Aug. 1962 for a mere 15 cents. Today this Comic Book is valued for as much as $32,000. It should be noted that this cover was drawn by Jack Kirby.
Jack Kirby: Creator & Artist by Sue Hamilton - Jack Kirby, also known as Jack “The King” 
Kirby, was an illustrator of comics who worked with such men as Stan Lee among many others and created such famous comic characters as Captain America (with Joe Simon), The Fantastic Four (with Stan Lee), The Hulk (with Stan Lee), The X-Men (with Stan Lee), The Mighty Thor (with Larry Lieber and Jack Kirby), The Silver Surfer (with Stan Lee), The New Gods and many, many more that you probably read stories about and see at the movies now also. He worked on his first comic around 1938/1939, but his budding career was interrupted as with many Americans, when World War II broke out and he joined the military. Jack Kirby served under the famous General George S. Patton. When World War II was over he returned to illustrating comics. He worked for both giants of the Comic Book Industry Marvel and DC among other companies and is looked upon, even today, as the King of all Comic Book Illustrators. Read this book and be amazed at this man’s amazing and productive life.
Captain America Comics #1, which was the first appearance of Captain America as created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, was first published in 1941 and sold for 10 cents. Today this Comic Book is valued for as much as $80,000.
One last thing I would like to share with you guys is that one of the gentleman, John DaCosta, who performs the Comics Camps we have once a month at ImaginOn has illustrated an Aesop Fables story The Fox and The Crow. Just click on the title to check it out. I think its pretty sweet!!!
I love these characters studies great stuff!
