This is an "author photo" I've used a couple times in projects I've pitched. I love skateboarding (I even wrote about learning how to skate - and fall - in my thirties in the Paris Review Daily!) and one day I really hope I get to write a book about it! "Skate or Try" is my skateboarding motto... it's a little gentler than the one you might have seen in skateboard magazines :)
My wife Rachel doodled this skate cat before we were married and I've used it in a bunch of designs since then. It was the header for my first website, I used it on a skateboard I designed, and it's the stamp I put in all the books in our Little Free Library. I love this little cat!
I love motivational teacher stickers from the 70s and 80s and this design is inspired by one of my absolute favorites. Like, this face is what I think of when I think of stickers... and this is my favorite kind of bubble letter (I doodle these on everything). Honestly, I mostly added this design to the store so I could get my own shirt... but if you want one, too, that would make me so happy. You're doing great work! Keep it up!
My friend surprised me by wearing a Cooking with Courage t-shirt so I'm going to try to surprise him by wearing a t-shirt of him wearing a Cooking with Courage shirt.
My mom asked me to make this shirt for her and her friends after Hurricane Ida. It's an inside joke and I'm not on the inside, but I'm posting this here so she can order a couple.
