	<p>Tobocman&#8217;s a southern California musician, and &#8220;Home&#8221; reminds me of nothing so much as the wistful songs on the soundtracks from another southern California musician, Randy Newman. The illustrations of Valerie Walsh make an excellent match. It&#8217;s a great little video.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>This is a new illustration I made for my Scribble Guild Group. The wonderful artist Andi Butler picked the colour scheme that we used and we decided on a winter theme. We are producing some postcards to send to clients, patrons and friends and we each will have a 5.5 x 1.7 inch  space on the card. The other artists include: the afore mentioned Andi Butler, Kathy Weller, David Sones and Jake Souva. Happy small town winter!</p>
