    I'm a published illustrator now

    Thought I would share over here.

    Bo Cash, a fishing buddy of mine, has been working on "the book" for years now. He was wrapping up things last year and asked me to do some illustrations for the book. I did some "spots" at the head of each chapter. 26 total, but one chapter was cut. I'm excited all the way around. Glad to see Bo do something that was a dream of his. And glad that I was able to use my talents to help put some flash to it. Here are some pics from the copy I just received from Bo in the mail.

    Congrats, Jason! Looks good.

    One of the best sharp shooters I know is a very talented artist as well. And, that makes sense to me. Both shooting and drawing call for spacial awareness & fine motor skills.
