It's hard to believe it's been two years: September 27, 2022 my brother left this plane of existence of his own volition. I will never stop missing him or have the hole left behind filled.
He was a brilliant artist, humorist, clever creative inventor and human bean. Freelancing for years for Hallmark after his education at Kansas City Art Institute, he finally got hired full time in 1997, where he worked in the Shoebox Greeting section until it was closed and he transitioned into doing computer mock-ups of catalog offerings, among others, as well as pitching concepts. They downsized in 2009 and sent him packing. He lived his adult life in KC and I only got to see him if I went there, as he stopped traveling with the exception of my mother's funeral.
The remainder of this post will be a mish-mash of photos over the years. While he became nearly completely immersed in computer art in the last 20 years of his life, it is his paintings and drawings and cartoons that I love the most.
