About the Author

Thomas Thorspecken

I am an illustrator and journalist working in and around Orlando Florida. I started the Analog Artist Digital World blog January first of 2009 with the intent to post a sketch a day. This is my way to finally put down some roots, to become part of a community one sketch at a time. The city has much more to offer than theme parks. What began as a New Years Resolution has become a daily sketch obsession.
