I am making daily drawings this year. Most of them I am planning on making a time-lapse process video of. When I do, I’ll add them to this play list embedded above.
Grabbed a moment to update the good ol’ McD Workshop portfolio with new books The Joker and Dudley and Omar’s Moving Garden. The Joker was written by Daniel Wallace, edited by Robb Pearlman and Steve Korté, with an introduction by Mark Hamill, and designed by myself. Nick Gazin reviewed it over at Vice here (scroll [...]
Woolly Pocket makes different kinds of gardening containers made out of recycled plastics and promotes gardening education for children through their Woolly School Garden program. I was commissioned to illustrate this picture book written by Douglas Hammer, designed by Justina Blakeney and managed and published by Miguel Nelson and his Woolly Pocket company. The book [...]

Issue 1 was a hand-made piece with silkscreened covers and photocopied interiors, and I’ve edited and published issues 2-4 using a print-on-demand printer. [...]
Sasquatch’s Big Hairy Drawing Book made its debut at the 2011 San Diego Comic Con last week. I wasn’t there, but April from Chronicle sent me this photo of a sasquatch that came by the booth to check out the sasquatch related books. I don’t know if he left happy or not based on this [...]
I’ve spent all morning posting this bad boy all over the internet, so I’ll finally slap it up here. This is a video trailer I made for Sasquatch’s Big Hairy Drawing Book.

Chronicle also has a special Comic Con page set up here with 25% off and free shipping. That page mentions “daily raffles” at the convention. One of your daily [...]
