Illustrator/Supermodel

Occasionally while doing an illustration I'll have a little trouble getting the position of one the characters exactly how I want it to be. That's when I break out the digital camera and transform into my alter-ego- Paul Lachine supermodel extraordinaire.

It looks a little silly but it certainly does the job. I can even add some hair on top of my head!

"Violence Against Women" Art Featured at Event

Here are a few pictures that were taken by Kathy Muach who runs the Three Rivers Crisis Center in Wahpeton, North Dakota and sent to by Becky DeVries.

My art on the subject of "Violence Against Women" was featured throughout the event.

It's always a great honor and pleasure to help out at these type of events. People like Kathy and Becky are very special people who dedicate their lives to helping others. It was great to be involved in this event.

Free Lance -Star Section Cover

This was a really fun illustration that was commissioned by the good folks at the Free Lance Star in Fredericksburg, Virginia.

It accompanied a feature story by Paul Akers who spent this past summer visiting several minor league baseball parks, "His aims were to find out what benefits minor league and independent-league baseball bring to a community, and how team baseball above the local-player level is begun, operated, and sustained".

Thanks to Paul Akers for his direction and enthusiasm on this page. Paul made this a very fun assignment indeed.

Snakes and Hackers

A couple stories have broke lately relating to cyber security.

First is the FBI's raid on gang peddling scare ware. A fake scan would appear to scan your computer screen scanning frantically for a virus and finding multiple ones of course. You would then be directed to a site where you would get your cyber pocket picked.

Another story emerging from the UK is the arrest of a young man charged with hacking into several websites including law enforcement websites.

I did this graphic to coincide with these recent news events.
