Puerto Vallarta 2011

I had a great time on my yearly vacation in Puerto Vallarta. I learned that the symbol for PV was a boy on a sea horse with a sombero. It has lots of meaning and symbolism. So I decided to make my own version of it Taz style.

Margarita on the Rocks or with Bees

When I was on a trip to San Carlos Mexico I was becoming just a little bit annoyed at the bees that were trying to land in my drink. But then i realized that the reason they were flying so slow was because they were taking a sip of our adult beverages. They were just on vacation as well. So here is Taz wondering what this bee is doing in his drink.

Stay Strong and Love Like Crazy

These are words I am trying to live by now. I need this to help keep my mind focused as I continue to fight to have custody of my son again. Trying to do things that keep my busy and distracted. So a good friend of mine asked me to try and create a Taz picture that represented this. Not sure if it quite captures it but it is a good first attempt. This was done with basic crayons at the Macaroni Grill.

Damn Yellow Jacket Aug 2011

I was hiking in Sedona when I ran into a hidden nest of yellow jackets. Well these suckas had a mean streak in them and can sting more than once. Hard to defend yourself when you can see them. I tell you he got me with a sucka punch when I was not looking. I want a rematch. Anyway here is what that inspired.

Scuba Taz July 2011


My buddy Scott needed a partner for Scuba and it was something I have always wanted to learn. So this was the time. We have our exit dive to schedule and then we are certified. What I love about snorkeling now taking it to a deeper level.

Mischievous Taz July 2011

Everybody hates..... Jan 2011


Everyone hates going to the doctor. And worst yet everyone hates to get shots. That or getting blood drawn. So here is what I was doing while waiting for my turn.

Taz "Buffet" Sandwich Jan 2011


I was at a Buffet today. I wanted to make sure I tried everything there was to eat so I had to pace myself. So I brought along some paper and mixed in some sketching while I was digesting. Here is what came to mind while I was eating. I was there two hours. Not eating the entire time of course. :)

Rocker Taz Jan 2011


I kept hearing about the P.F. Chang race on t.v. So it had me thinking. I need a rocker Taz. So here he is. I got the idea from a cartoon I had just recently seen so I put them together. Go runners.

Just Sketching Jan 2011

I was watching Beauty and the Beast with my son. Now I, I mean we, have seen this movie loads of times. So I figured I would get my sketch pad out and see what came to mind. Here is what I whipped up during the course of the movie. I like the "Beauty and the Taz" one the best.
