A Griffin StoryMy friend Josh has been working on little stories with his three-year old son, Griffin. Griffin writes the story and his dad illustrates. Josh posted one of their stories on his blog and welcomed anyone to illustrate a Griffin tale, so I thought I'd take a shot at it. I had one condition: the story had to be about dinosaurs. Fortunately, Griffin was willing to oblige and here's what he came up with!
"Griffin's Dinosaur Story"
"The Apatosaurus is named Potoesaurus and the Triceratops is named Bobby."
"Potoesaurus drinks a full bag of dinosaur orange juice, like a big, big, grasshopper and a big, big, cockroach."
"Bobby bonks stuff."
"Potoesaurus is in my room playing trains."
"Bobby is bonking a watermelon."
"THE END"

Fantastic Illustrations. I think you are on your way to becoming a MONSTER book illustrator! My favorite picture is when Bobby breaks the watermelon, but I also really love the one with the dinosaurs feet and the train riding through them as well.
Keep up the incredible invention!
How is the animation at Pixar going? Are you allowed to talk about projects you are involved in?
Wow, man. This is awesome. The illustrations are fantastic. Maybe you should do some freelance on the side; if you can. My favorite drawing is of the bugs drinking with the Potoesaurus.
Thanks so much for participating and spreading the word. I will show Griffin the pages on your blog.
Cheers
Wow, such beautiful drawings. There is so much life and story in each one.

I really love the artwork you have.I am working my way into the animation buisness. I was wondering if you can check out my blog when you have a chance and comment on my work.
I like this story. Im glad Bobby got to bonk some watermelons. I was rooting for him.
