I've always wanted to do an "Al Parker" type illustration. Today I grabbed an old very rough piece of plywood and set about doing a new piece. See, my job at the Golden Gate Bridge ends in a week and I guess that feeling of freedom (no more graveyard shift) and impending doom got the juices flowing again. This took about 2 hours. I'll do some more work on it later but, for now I'm happy with the results.

Education
So I am putting my art to hopefully some good use. These drawings are for a comic / coloring book I am doing for the California Land Surveyors Association. It will be distributed to elementary school children when surveyors come to visit and demonstrate just what it is we do. I figured it would be a great way to introduce kids to the practical side of mathematics. I know that when I was in high school algebra and trigonometry were too abstract a concept for me, though geometry was a breeze. I hope to be able to show how it all applies in the real world. Only 16 more pages to go! Larger images can be seen on my flickr page.
