Here is a SpongeBob Comics cover I made in 2012. It was always a joy to work on these with @chrisduffyofthewinchesterduffy and Steve Hillenburg. We miss you Steve! #spongebob #patrickstar #squidward #comics #animation #cartoon

COMICON POSTER! Been working on this for a while and happy to finally share it. This is based on an upcoming concept episode. It has 3 mini stories set in space and it was crazy amounts of work for everyone, I hope you guys like it! #SDCC #americandad #comicon #Roger #Klaus #stansmith

Here's a bit of Penguins animatic. This show was my first time on a digital tablet, so the drawings are a bit chewy, but I'm really happy with how the story flows. There is something so satisfying about turning a script into an animatic. #storyboard #animatic #pengins #hockey #animation #cartoon

I got to design myself for last night's episode of American Dad! Our crew went to Las Vegas last year to celebrate our 400th episode so we designed a bunch of crew members to put in the background of the Vegas scenes. #americandad #cameo #selfportrait #cartoon #characterdesign

Here is a storyboard cleanup drawing from the SpongeBob Movie. The term "antic" is often used by animators to mean "anticipation" which is a core animation principle. Basically, any big action needs some kind of a wind up. #spongebob #patrickstar #moustache #realman #cartoon #animation

Here's a little Steve Drop. Some random re-dresses from seasons past. #americandad #stevesmith #animationdomination #animation #cartoon #characterdesign

Another summer camp pose I drew for the style guide. Digital, 2010. #spongebob #patrickstar #summercamp #hiking #cartoon #digitalsketch #humanart

Ok I've been neglecting my American Dad fans. Here's a batch of Roger designs. I'll try to roll out another round for each family member in the coming weeks. #Americandad #rogerthealien #characterdesign #cartoon

This is the cover for one of the first SpongeBob books I ever illustrated. I made this in 2002 when I was still working on season 3. Some of the BG was painted with actual acrylic paint on illustration board. #spongebob #mrspuff #boatingschool #animation #cartoon #illustration #humanart

Here is a classic style guide pose from 2004. I didn't do the clean up and color on this, I just did the tight "on model" sketch. This is a real human pencil drawing on paper! I probably still have it in my files somewhere. #spongebob #pencilsketch #cartoon #animation #humanart

Here is another summer camp scene from the style guide. Drawn in 2010, all digital. #spongebob #patrickstar #summercamp #digitalsketch #cartoon #animation

Somebody asked about Karen poses from the style guide, so I figured I would post them up front too. I added a couple oddities from the stye guide. These are my drawings, but keep in mind that I was working from the stock which was designed by other folks. #spongebob #karen #computerwife #plankton

Ok Garfield week was kind of intense, I'm ready for a palette cleanser. Here is a lively sketch from 2010. I did a bunch of these "summer camp" themed poses, maybe I'll post more this week. All digital. #spongebob #digitalsketch #cartoon #patrickstar #summercamp #humanart #aisucks

6/6 Here is my last and favorite of the new Garfield cards. I like it because it was my own concept and very different from the original prompt I was given. I really hoped they would pick this one, and they did! TM & ©2026 Wizards of the Coast #mtgsecretlair #mtg #fog #magicthegathering #garfield

New Garfield card 5/6! What is there to say? Yup, I got paid to draw this, haha. TM & ©2026 Wizards of the Coast #mtgsecretlair #mtg #ponder #hanginthere #magicthegathering #garfield #cartoon

New Garfield card 4/6! Life is funny. I did these cards over a year ago and I barely recognize them as my own work. So surreal working with foundational characters from my childhood. TM & ©2026 Wizards of the Coast #mtgsecretlair #mtg #swordstoplowshares #magicthegathering #garfield #cartoon

New Garfield cards! 3/6. I'm told this is another popular card. Is this the most romantic version ever? TM & ©2026 Wizards of the Coast #mtgsecretlair #mtg #solring #magicthegathering #garfield #cartoon

2/6 new Garfield cards! Very excited to have a counterspell card on my resume. TM & ©2026 Wizards of the Coast #mtgsecretlair #mtg #counterspell #magicthegathering #garfield #cartoon

HAPPY MONDAY! MTG just announced a bunch of cards I've been sitting on for ages. I'll roll them out over the next 6 days. I've been practicing drawing Garfield for about 45 years. I knew it would pay off someday! TM & ©2026 Wizards of the Coast #mtg #magicthegathering #garfield #cartoon

New epsiode of American Dad tonight! I got to design my cat Trinket for this one. Also...KITTENS! #americandad #kittens #cat #cartoon #characterdesign #animation

Here is a game board from an activity book called "Don't Rock the Boat". The file is timestamped 2002 so I think I was still working on the TV show when I painted this. A combination of acrylic and digital paint. #spongebob #boatingschool #bikinibottom #illustration

This is a drawing I made as a wedding present for a friend many years ago. The seven lucky gods. I have so much gratitude for the incredible good fortune in my life! #gratitude #graphite #humanart

"NO, THIS IS PATRICK!" I'm watching season 1ep7 of ER and my jaw hit the ground. I worked on this episode of SB 20+ years ago and I never knew that was an ER reference! Here are some pages from my book "And the Winner Is" based on the episode "Big Pink Loser". #spongebob #patrickstar

Here are some style guide poses from 2011. Not sure where these got used. All digital. As the years go by, the ones on paper feel more and more special. The digital ones?...<shrug> whatevs. That's a clue about something. #spongebob #digitalsketch #humanart #oldschool

Here is a page I illustrated from "The Force Awakens" Little Golden Book. I had a hefty assist on this one from the great Micky Rose who painted the BG and the uber death star. #starwars #theforceawakens #snoke #littlegoldenbooks #illustration

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

I've been drawing versions of this pose for 25+ years! This one is from my first Little Golden Book "Mr Fancypants"(oop). I have such reverence for this style, I really enjoyed studying the minutia. #spongebob #gary #pinneaplehouse #littlegoldenbooks #kidlit #illustration

These are the "Batman run" poses from the style guide, timestamp 2007. From the pencil and paper days. I seem to remember that Steve Hillenburg was pretty picky about these poses. I wonder if I still have his notes somewhere? #spongebob #patrickstar #mermaidman #barnacleboy #cartoon #pencilsketch

It's all downhill after this one, folks! Probably my favorite SpongeBob cover I've ever done. Special thanks to Chris Duffy and Steve Hillenburg for trusting me with this one. Ruffs in the comments. #spongebob #fantasyart #frazetta #comicbookcover #cartoon #digitalpainting #patrickstar

Here is a scene from AD season 13. I suppose technically this is a crowd key, but this was a lot more fun than a typical crowd. BG by the wise and powerful Tony Postma. #americandad #pets #characterdesign #cartoon #animation #digitalink
