Bear Loves Ice Cream


Once upon a time, oh, three or five summers ago, Brooke, Bear and I went to the beach.  While Bear went to get us all an ice cream cone, I borrowed Brooke's antique Pentax camera, and snapped this (surprise) photo of Bear as he was returning.

Hmmm.  Mint chocolate chip.  My favorite.

Close Up Photographer


Close Up Photographer, a pen & ink drawing, was done for a photo shop in Maine.  Let's see, it was in the 90's I think.  And, no, it was not done on location (it was too windy for me).  Brooke worked on this one for days.

Did you know her Dad is also an illustrator?  Yep.  He talks to his drawings.  You know, 'choo choo' as he draws a train, 'Wee Wee' with little piglets, etc.  When Brooke was little, she remembers over hearing her Dad talk to his illustrations.  She decided she would never be caught doing that.

Yeah.  Right.  Guess who talks to her pictures?
