I wanted to show off some images from the first show based on the children's book I illustrated. I have a ways to go in both puppet building and performing but we had a fantastic time. Here's the author reading from the book... And here's me and one of the kids, tentatively approaching...

I built Bird, from the children's book I illustrated, Buddy and Bird. (http://www.buddyandbird.com) I think he turned out okay but the beak was a gigantic pain. I'm working on Buddy and hopefully he'll turn out better. Thoughts? Critiques??

This was so cool! I was attending the Licensing Expo - it was supposed to be all business - but adults turn into children when there are puppets and especially Muppets around. So I got my picture taken! I was told they were back on a plane to New York that afternoon and headed overseas that...

Okay, Muppet Central forum -- I need your help yet again. I have been hired for a pretty awesome job; in order to not embarass myself, I need to know if anyone can point me in the direction of someplace (like a national chain) that does large-format scanning (like 11 by 14). Scanning it on my...

Okay guys -- I am baring my soul here and showing some lousy pictures of my first puppet. This one is made out of stuff I had around the house, just to get a feel for making patterns, eyes, that sorta thing. There are some pretty glaring errors I've noticed already (the mouth is pretty wonky --...
