The 2006 Haiku Issue!

Well, its finally coming out the 2006 Haiku issue of the Anchorage Press and its got "Your Square Life" written all over it, with fifteen illustrations in addition to the cover. All the work just about killed me, I was doing about three illustrations a day when my wife was out out town in addition to another huge project I'm working on, but its done now and I'm actually kind of proud of it, especially the cover.

The cover was originally going to be penguins and a flying polar bear (from the polar bear lovin' catagory), but it was pointed out that polar bears and penguins don't mix, so puffins were the next best choice and it added a little color.
