Meet the Drawing Board




The Drawing Board art collective consists of a group of designers pursuing their passion for illustration after hours. Sure, they love their day jobs as graphic designers, but they've also had a love for art in other forms since childhood – animation, painting, comics and more. Come see what is created once they've clocked out!

When he created his first comic strip at the age of 11-years-old, Brad embarked on his career as a part-time cartoonist and unwittingly unleashed a life-long obsession with the art of illustration. Currently, Brad is pursuing web publishing and nationally syndicating his latest comic strip creation, Roofus, which has been published in 20 Louisiana newspapers. He feels at home in his Bossier City abode which houses an unhealthy collection of toys and DVDs.

Travis has been drawing all his life and had to basically teach himself to draw, as there was no art program in his small-town Oklahoma school. That is largely what led to the choice of graphic design as his career.
Finding time to create art is a tough task lately though, as his family of 3 becomes a family of four, but when time allows Travis still likes to sketch in his sketchbook, bust out a painting, or draw the occasional comic book.
