I happened to go in to Fireflies for dinner yesterday and managed to get everything straightened out with the Painting Show that was supposed to start this summer.
Koi Paintings will be going up Labor Day and be there for a currently undetermined amount of time. I'm guessing a month, but I'm not sure.
So, to summarize:
Koi Paintings!
Fireflies!
Starting September 1!
This is for the next issue of Fray. The story it's paired with is about a 6th grader's obsession with his fish (Ironic right?). This pretty much poured out after PBS Parents launched.
Today marked the launch of the New PBS Parents.
We re-did the entire site, from front to back, along with the help of The Incredible Pear. We integrated Movable Type, cleaned up the XHTML and the CSS, and brought a new brand look to the whole sha-bang.
Now for most folks this is just another day on the job, but for us? It was the work of 3 regular regular staff members, one contractor, two interns, and two part time temps... for a 1900 page site. And for me, it's the reason for a very long summer and many late nights.
We're really proud of it. Stop by and say hello: http://www.pbsparents.org
Taurus, the villain of Card Cheat is the leader of a small gang that hounds our Hero.
"Too much mouth" was the feedback on this one. Marc's keeping me on task by not letting me get away with overly simple faces. That's not say there won't be style to the book, but I want to tighten up my drawing a bit.
This might be the worst I've ever done.
Much better.
Taurus! We wanted to avoid pure black/traditional villain colors, so we just stayed in the darker hues.
