KRITTERS
A study of a Study
Suspicions now confirmed- household critters do enjoy the leisure pleasures we toil hard to afford. It’s good to know our dens of solitude are not wasted during working hours. This story hour may conclude with a nice dip in our pools, followed by a vigorous romp around our ever static formal dining rooms which might [...]
Flying Leap
HOLIDAY ARTWORK: Every new adventure requires a ‘leap’ of faith. A young buck can’t haul a sleigh round trip across the night time expanse without some serious lift in his step. Thanks to the coaching of one little elf and one big bounding stretch skyward, looks like this feller is going to make Santa’s team [...]

Fish Sticks
A little ‘bait’ (insert sigh from bad pun here) of a new project for ‘Officer Snook and Youth Environmental Programs’: a sticker pad full of bright and shiny creatures from the deep big blue. Coral reef health is a top priority on our good officer’s ‘to do’ list. Getting little minds excited with cartoony observations [...]
Furry Flash Funz a Flyin’
My hiatus ends with good reports- seems while you all have been pondering my whereabouts, I’ve made good use of curious time by pounding business pavements off the beaten path (snippets from which to be posted soon.) During my sparser minutes, I rafted one of those ‘do it yourselfer‘ books and wadded into Adobe Flash [...]
Hey Good Lookin’
Not sure what Snook’s got brewin’, but since it’s minus a flame, my dad’s take is its being fueled by geo fusion (ain’t he a smarty?) Officer Snook swaps his trademark police chapeau for this puffy chefs number as he puts on the roll of creator of a more colorful ocean floor. Another successful 7-Dippity [...]
Fin In The Water
Those folks at 7-Dippity keep me in the swim of things; their latest project is designed to keep little minds preoccupied while awaiting kid sized meals in this restaurant activity menu. This snippet is of a shark who’s a real speed demon behind the wheel. Hope he’s not in a ‘no wake’ zone. A.E. Sabo [...]
Eight Belles – Loss of a Queen
Commentary: Kentucky Derby 2008 She measured at seventeen hands of captivating power: steel speed adrenaline stealth in gun smoke gray. Without apology, she won our attentions, our wagers, and our respect. In a pulse thrusting two minute mile and a quarter, American racing had embraced its new queen. From the start, she proved worthy and [...]
Interesting Bedfellows
Design talent and graphics compadre Julie Johnston contacted me with this concept for Micki and Fred Schumacher’s Bed and Breakfast in lovely Millinocket, Maine. The Young House contains 5 unique cozy rooms, with queen size beds, private baths & televisions and is conveniently located in the Center of Millinocket close to restaurants, shopping and galleries. [...]
Commentary:Big Game In Florida Country
Now, before y’all start giving me the stink eye, this is not a commentary on the ‘dos’ or the ‘don’ts’ of legalized gambling. It’s more a rant on how governmental fires place ever increasing heat on our already evaporating Florida history. Whether it’s paving the Everglades, propagandaing mythical bullet trains or allowing for airports were [...]
Florida’s gotta New Sheriff
2007© A.E.SaboCoastal byways of Florida, take note; you are here by being patrolled by a new sheriff in town. Officer Snook is on the beat, educating children of the environmental impact of water pollution. The character was created by the team at 7-Dippity, Inc. His many adventures keeps me busy at the drawing board and [...]
Bird Doggin’ at The Spa
2007©Ann E. Sabo : click on image to enlargeAs a freelancer, I sometimes feel as useless as a three legged bird dog at a duck shoot: potential clients are in my sights, but when it comes to rushing ‘em and flushing ‘em out, I’ll lag a step behind. So, you can imagine my resounding ‘yes’ [...]
Little Kona

If anyone needed a blistering, hammer fisted cup of Joe, it’s our brave US forces. Now, not that I’m touting, but this offer seems legit and you can share [...]
CUBAN PETE
©2007 A.E. Sabo : click on image to enlarge Okay, show of hands… how many of you have started projects only to have your client run out of time, money, or interest? Okay, now raise the other hand if this has happened to you involving all three circumstances. Now flap those extended arms up and [...]
Dots N Dimples
©2007 A.E.SaboI’m an admirer of Hallmark’s ‘Hoops and Yoyo’ – they are the funniest of flash-animated fellers. I’ve been greeting folks on special occasions, via email, for years with those non-descript little whos (i think one’s a dog and the other a cat… but it’s anyones guess…) One of my ‘big ideas’ for 2007, was [...]
