If you have read any of the Moo-Cow Fan Club Print Editions or visited our comics page then you are probably familiar with the comics I do about the MCFC gang. I thought I would share some of the process of how I create one of those comics. For an example I'll use the Toll Tale comic from the Pioneers edition.

Part 4 - It Ends With A Splash
Over all it was a very successful trip, and I think we made a lot of new Moo-Cow fans. Plus, it's good for the gang to work for their living sometimes. Although, I think if we're going to make a living, Becky and I better be the ones who run the table at most shows.
The last morning, before we flew home, we all went down to the hotel pool to just take it easy after a couple hard days work. That all went well until F.W. showed off one of his trademark Wicked Wombat Water Whumpin' Cannonballs.

Part 3 - Sales Techniques
The FPEA conference is huge and we are a small company, so I thought having Moo-Cow, Ramses & F.W. along might help us stand out. Now I'm not so sure it was such a great idea to have them working the table.

One of the big events of this past summer was our trip to Orlando Florida for the 2007 FPEA (Homeschooler's) conference, and for some "relaxing" vacation time. We brought Moo-Cow, F.W. and Ramses along for the trip , and I used the occasion to bust out the sketchbook and start my "Sketchbook Travels" series. All pictures are done with pen and watercolor pencils.
Part 1 - The Fun Begins

| This is a creature F.W. and I made up using the R.A.A.A.. F.W. says it looks just like a friend of his from Australia! |
Are you ready to go into the toad home-building business? Alright, get your hard hat on and let’s start!
Have you ever listened to the soft drip drop of rain on your roof? Doesn’t it sometimes sound like a song? And even though I don’t like thunder, when it’s far away, it sounds like a wild drummer. Sometimes a storm can be so musical. Now you can make your own stormy music with a rain stick!

Dear Moo-Cow,
Hi! I love your Magazine. I drew a picture that's supposed to look like a poster I have. The joke is that it's supposed to say "Champagne Duval-Leroy." Not "Champagne Moo-Cow-Leroy." Keby - I put you in the lady's flower dress because you like to garden.
From, Naomi D.

For my first blog entry here on the new site, I thought that I should talk about how i'm creating a lot of the illustrations you'll be seeing around here, and the tools I'm using to create them.
Any of you out there who are familiar with our print editions will notice that I've been doing something different lately. Well, I've gone all-natural!
