Friday Fan Art!
This is a special edition of “Friday Fan Art”. Its an homage to that raspberry-colored pal-o-mine!
Despite all the love I have for Spiderwick, and its incredible successes, I must confess that my second picture book, Ted, is still a favorite.
Sure, it’s a little long for a picture book (especially nowadays) but I was proud of my boldness at such an early point in my career to make a statement about being a working parent (even though I wasn’t one yet) and holding onto your childhood. Heck, even Mrs. Cheney liked the book. She read it back in 2002 as part of her campaign, “No Such Thing As a Vacation From Reading“, for (you guessed it) summer reading.
A couple of years ago, my brother Adam, blew me away with one of the coolest birthday presents ever. Ted rendered in various animated styles. I simply HAD to share these as I think they are so cool! Enjoy! (Thanks bro!)

Ha! I love Adam’s Hannah-Barbera Ted.
The Hanna-Barbera one is tops! Those are all so cool!
“Cheshire”Ted or Ted “Simpson”? Its a toss up for my favorite.
“Pika”Ted sorta creeps me out
Great dragons!
Your brother Adam did a fantastic job! The different depictions of Ted made me laugh out loud! I love the Pikachu and Home Simpson Teds. By the way, those dragons are STUNNING!!!! I can’t get enough of your shading, coloring, style, smoothness, everything!

-all the inspiered love,
