Welcome to my blog! I want to share what I've been up to lately. The image above, which is the wraparound cover for Scrappy Jack a book I wrote and illustrated. It's a biography of my dad, who had plenty of stories to tell and he lived to be 100 years old. The original version called "So, That's That!"was given to him on his 100th birthday many years ago. That's me and my brother, dad, and two sisters in the junkyard where I grew up. The best playground any kid could ask for!

| This is an amazing comics (Bande Dessinee) museum in Belgium we went to. To bad I couldn't get the blue truck to move out of the way of all the comics in the window. Nice to see a culture that is so supportive of popular culture! |
 |
| There was a library in the building, mostly full of comic albums, that's what they call them in Europe. The covers are hard bound and very uniform in size. |
 |
| Herge, the creator of Tintin is highly regarded as one of the greatest Belgian artist. |
 |
The whole museum had the process of how comics are made. Including the rough layouts and written script to the final artwork to published comic. It was all so wonderfully presented.
|
 |
| The historical context was so well done, with this physical prop out of the Little Nemo comic strip...a full size bed! |
