Hey everyone, I'm proud to announce that this sweet book I helped produce is finally here! Gary Legwold's new book Keep On Rolling! has arrived and I did illustrations for it! 😊Gary is unofficially the Lefse King (or maybe officially? Who do I ask?) and knows everything about Norwegian-Minnesotan history because, come on, this is not his first book on this stuff! His new book is filled with many lovely and interesting stories that takes you on a tour of Norwegian heritage through the midwest and beyond. He is also an incredibly kind and inspiring person and I couldn't have had a better author to work with. Here's a sampling of the 22 illustrations, the map and even some gnomes I did for his book. I mean...gnomes. Visit www.lefseking.com for Gary's book and link in my profile 👆 (at Saint Paul, Minnesota)

I sometimes wish my painting was more precise like a lot of my illustration heroes but I'm just too impatient. Also it started to rain outside. Also I really had to pee. #excuses #saltyseadog #illustration #jillustration (at Dakota, Wisconsin)

Still plugging away on this drawing challenge for the month of April. I took some secret pics of people at the mall so I could draw them at home. #aprilillustrations #jillustration #sketchbook #outletmallpeople #creeperphotographer

The outline of a girl stooping it with a beer, in honor of the beautiful weekend weather. I'll be adding color tomorrow. #aprilillustrations #jillustration #sketchbook #process #pencildrawing

Kind of a “get off my lawn” character for today. I don’t know why, it’s Monday. #aprilillustrations #jillustration

From "Drawn To Life," the notes of legendary animator and all around cool guy Walt Stanchfield. I love this. #disney #illustration
