Lawrence Illustrator Kent Smith and author Laura Moriarty

Today, we're taking a quick break from watching LFK's local kickball league to make a quick post.

Part of what we do in this blog is feature work that we like by local artists.  Today, we are featuring Lawrence illustrator Kent Smith.   He loves "robots, ninjas, monkeys, ray-guns, and romance. "








More of his work can be found on his website here: http://www.smittytown.com/
