This year I'm going to be a headliner at the annual Walt Disney Toonfest in Marceline, MO!
Marceline is the hometown of Walt Disney, from ages 5-10, and the town celebrates his legacy every year with a huge festival centered around him. I've never been, but for a small town, they really do it up. Main Street in Marceline was the inspiration for the Main Street, USA at the Disney parks, and part of the weekend is a trip to a huge old tree in the back yard that's been named The Dreaming Tree. It's here where he'd sit and while away hours letting his imagination run and doodle. I'm really looking forward this this one- I'll be doing workshops, and chalk talk or two, and helping celebrate Walt's memory.
I'll be doing a cartooning/illustration symposium for the public on Saturday, September 21 at the Walsworth Community Center, along with cartoonists Mark Anderson and Dick Duerrstein from 12:30-4pm. And it's free! Read more about it on my Blog by clicking here...

I've got a lot of original art in this traveling show, AND they built two of my machines from the book I illustrated, Rube Goldberg's Simple Normal Humdrum School Day.
There's some really cool documentation of the my work in the book, from sketches to final art. Neat! More info and lots more as it gets closer at the Indiana State Museum homepage!

Rube Goldberg's Simple Normal Humdrum School Day! Written by Rube's granddaughter Jennifer George, and drawn by me, published by Abrams Kids!
To help little Rube get through his day, he builds ridiculous machines to perform otherwise ordinary tasks.
From getting out of bed, getting dressed and making breakfast, to doing homework and going to bed, the entire day is depicted in the goofy world of Rube Goldberg.
Great for fans of STEM and STEAM, curious kids and thoughtful parents and teachers!
40 pages, including 15 2 page machine spreads. This book is the first in a series: book two will, um... *drop* in Spring 2021.
All books are signed and shipped to your door. For an extra fee I'll do little sketch and personalize the book to whomever you choose!
