What is Another Place?
You've probably been there but you don't remember.  You might have pictures of it from when you were last there all those long years ago.  It's a place not so different from our own and all it takes to get there is you.  Remember what it's like to swim through the skies of Another Place, to run along the ocean floor, to find adventure and mystery everywhere you look. 
Here in this journal, we will record those memories and discover Another Place all over again.

A The ABCs of Michael Startzman

"The ABCs of Michael Startzman" will feature a letter from the alphabet and an illustration based on something prominent in my life pertaining to that letter.  I started where all things start...at the beginning.

A is for Andy Panda.

My father has been writing phone poems for quite some time now.  A lot of the poems feature animals and more than a few feature Simon, my dad's newest dachshund.  Lately the poems have been featuring a new animal character who goes by the name of Andy Panda.  As in panda bear.  I've been thinking about different ways to draw Andy and all of his poetic adventures and finally sat down to draw him late one night on my iPad.  The illustration turned out in a different style than I had in mind but I just went with it and you can see what I came up with below.
