OrbiTee is a t-shirt i had the pleasure of working on. Here is the official website where you can order these nifty educational shirts.

This one was fun, for a kid who loves dinosaurs. Went to the children's book store and bought some dinosaur figures and was inspired to make a card as well...Here is it...

Birthday Commission

click image to enlarge
This was a Commissioned work which I believe the client liked. She asked to do something with her nephew and Where the Wild things Are which was illustrated and written by the great Maurice Sendak. I was glad since I own a copy of this book. I came up with this. She supplied a couple of photos and there was one that was perfect which I used for the face. This is drawn from on Bristol with pencil then I actually inked it THEN watercolored it.
