Been quite awhile since my last post, was away with family for our vacation in Iceland. Such a clean, beautiful and different country; I highly recommend it.
Back to the bloggin': Back in March of 1999, my brother Tom called me asking if I could do a few cartoon sketches of grocery store owners for his Internet design company The Chopping Block. So I quickly sketched out these guys in one evening.
I think these characters were far too wacky for what my brother needed. But I had fun drawing these guys. Don't think I'd ever purchase fruit from any of these guys . . .

Probably the most normal looking one of the grouping. |

Knowing this was for the Internet, I gave goatees to all the grocers. |

I noticed giving them a hutch back look made them wackier-looking. |

This one was inspired by Scott Gordon of the old Uncle Floyd Show. |
