I’m an artist who specializes in illustration and cartooning. I also love music, reading, gardening and goofing around with my piano and trumpet. On this site I plan to share my drawing work, other stuff I’m getting into with family friends and other projects. I also have a little store where I sell things I make from time to time.
I created this website to try and tip the balance away from spending my time on, and donating my creative energy to social media.
If you have any questions, feel free to email me at mikeshort42@gmail.com. Thanks for stopping by.
