How Deep do you Sleep?



I did a much larger, full color version of this idea back in 1992, maybe. I could sleep on a muscle bed with the sharks and octopus and all of the fish. Especially in the summer. I am working up a carved wood version too. A little less complicated but cool and fun. How deep do YOU sleep?

Tinkers Island Fish Company



I like this guy. My new spin doctor, pitchman, lightning rod for the PolarBear Fish Company. Why have a company if you don't get to boss someone around. But I had a revelation about the company name. The Polar Bear is a great image for me but the name wasn't exactly thrilling me. I was listening to NPR and they had a piece about tinkerers. And the light went on. I am a tinkerer. I love to make things and design things. Tinkers Island is one of my goto areas to fly fish. Perfect. Tinkers Island it is!

SketchBook



SketchBook it is. I am always doodling on extra pieces of paper at work. It obssesive but fun.

FaceBook



More like SketchBook. The daily doodling usually doesn't get the ink treatment. But I keep trying to find a style that is satisfying.

WOODEN FISH









I finally took pictures of my carved fish. This is the whole lineup. Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, Bluefin Tuna, Cod, Bluefish, Humpback Whale & Striper. Now I need to go out and hustle them. It would be a fun job!

Great White Hunter



Seal meat, seal meat, seal meat, it get a bit boring. How about sushi! The polar bears are going to have to change with the environment. As the ice flows thaw, another option will come up the coast. Its been a long time between posts (and drawings). Fall is approaching and it just seems like the right time to get back to work. Summer is for fishing and the other months are for dreaming of fishing.
