As the Mom of a toddler boy I found this to be touching.

Is this card your April fool's joke to the world..... ummmm good job?

I wish I were a better artist. The joke is that I make a living with this bullshit.

Yeah... Your employers are so burned.

THANKS! I drew them quickest, but glad it didn't effect their awesomeness for you.

I'm gonna try and push this coloring method and develop a more personal art style (cause this was work related) to do more pieces like this...you know...actually TRY? Maybe a book is in my future one day. Or, thanks.

Oh... because... you know... you've never made books before, so ... ok... Or, you're welcome.

I wish I could; I have a bad memory for these things.
Good drawing though.

Funny you say that, it's the front side of a belated birthday card. Something on the inside'll say something like, "Well, If you can forget something like THAT, I don't feel so bad about forgetting your birthday."
I dunno...something like that. Glad you like it, though!

Yeah, it looks like something you'd buy.

Thanks, Derek! I had a lot of fun with this piece...made me think I should do more. Even if it DOES take forever!

Actually, I think this is how I'm gonna do that drawing for my parents.

Dude ! This is really cool. A new level and feel for mr derek.

I hate when I try, cause then people find out what I'm capable of. Thanks!

Thanks! I'm usually very impatient. More of my stuff would probably look like this if it didn't take so long! HAH!

I'm going to guess you meant to type "fonts" and say, surprisingly, handwriting thetype is what took the longest in this piece. It looks really good, way better than a digital font, but wow, it takes a long time! HAH! I think with more practice, it won't be so bad. Thanks!

yeah, I meant fonts. and I love hand lettering so much! Its far superior to digital lettering!

Yeah, even if it takes forever (and looks sloppy), it will always match the hand of the artist who drew it...adding yet another level of continuity to each piece. I totally agree.

indeed. i almost never used digital lettering for that very reason.

Love the concept & the drawings are perfect. Great work

Thanks a bunch! I had a lot of fun with this piece...I think my boss might not like the fact that this took me over 8 hours to do though. Every now and then I need to bust ass on a project though, right?

If it comes to pass with this kind of work-absolutely!

I remember days like this when I was young too. I'd buy that card.

I hope you're not the only one! I think the whimsy of the card makes it fairly relatable to pretty much anyone...thanks.
