I illustrated this slideshow, written by Cameron Sturdevant for eWEEK.com. It’s the second in a series featuring Cameron’s ideas for an imaginary tablet product, the “Couchlet”. (Here’s the first slideshow, written shortly before Apple’s iPad announcement in January.) I’m hoping we’ll do a third one comparing and contrasting Cameron’s Couchlet concept with the iPad, once it’s available.

A sketch for an upcoming series of illustrations about Mr. Gates’ impending retirement from Microsoft. I also did a gouache sketch, but it came out looking more like David Letterman (circa late ’80s.) So I’ll save that one for my future Letterman illustration gigs.

A prelim sketch for an illustration.

You never know when you’ll end up in an enclosed space, listening to someone’s harrowing medical history. Let’s hope those are surgical hedge clippers.

Three attempts at a painting – top left and bottom are watercolor, top right is gouache. From the same series as the guy on the balcony, earlier. I can’t quite get the background color of the plane right, though I think the last version (the bottom watercolor) is on the right track.

Maybe it would help if I painted Leslie Nielsen in the background.
