I was born on the Island of Maui in the Hawaiian Islands, the "uttermost part of the earth" (as measured from Jerusalem).
ART is my middle name, really. I call myself "rob-ART" instead of "Rob" or "Robert" to remind myself that the LORD gave me the gifts of cartooning and humor. My goal is to spend some time each day developing those gifts.
As a child, I doodled during my dad's sermons while sitting in church. When I was asked to teach a Bible lesson, I would often use drawings to illustrate the main truth.
Whlle going to college and graduate school, I contributed cartoons to various publications.
One Easter Week, we had a special time of fun with our three children. At a certain time each day, I would share a spiritual truth illustrated with a cartoon. At the encouragement of my wife, I began the discipline of producing one cartoon a day to go with our "walk through the Bible." I now have file drawers bulging with Bible cartoons.
I considered publishing my favorites in a book but instead decided to create a website instead. Pray for me that I will continue this discipline by adding more cartoons to the website for the blessing of you, your family, and your friends. |
