Antler Scrambler Target Gift Card

Out now in stores and online HERE is the gift card I did this year for Target. This one was a bit tricky than the one I did last year since I had to actually design a maze that would fit in the antlers of a reindeer. Since this was also one of Target's WOW cards I got to design the front and back of the packaging the card is held in. All in all, this was one of the most exciting projects to work on and i'm really happy with the results. Below are some inprogress sketches, this finished art and the final product...

Get your geek on...

This past year I was hired to do the illustrations for a fun book that just got released last month called "Geek Mom: Projects, Tips and Adventures for Moms and their 21st-Century Families" written by the editiors of Wired.com GeekMom blog.


You can order the book on Amazon.com HERE! Below is a description of what the book is all about and a few of my personal favorite illustrations I did for the book.

It’s fast becoming a geek world out there, and all moms need to show off their tech smarts and superhero-like skills in order to keep their savvy kids entertained and engaged. Geek Mom: Projects, Tips, and Adventures for Moms and Their 21st-Century Families explores the many fun and interesting ways that digital-age parents and kids can get their geek on together. Imaginative ideas for all ages and budgets include thrifty Halloween costumes, homemade lava lamps, hobbit feasts, and magical role-playing games. There are even projects for moms to try when they have a few precious moments alone. With six sections spanning everything from home-science experiments to superheroes, this comprehensive handbook from the editors of Wired.com’s popular GeekMom blog is packed with ideas guaranteed to inspire a love of learning and discovery. Along the way, parents will also find important tips on topics such as determining safe online communities for children, organizing a home learning center, and encouraging girls to love science. Being geeky is all about exploring the world with endless curiosity. Geek Mom is your invitation to introducing the same sense of wonder and imagination to the next generation.
