Donald Driver Children’s Book
   

In 2008 and 2009, Joe had the pleasure of working with Green Bay Packer Wide Receiver Donald Driver to illustrate his children’s books "Quickie makes the team" and "Quickie handles a loss", both books are sold at Barnes and Noble, Shopko, Piggly Wiggly, and Goodwill stores throughout Wisconsin, and can be purchased online at the Barnes and Noble Website.

Joe has been asked, and participated in submitting illustrations for National Doodle Day where celebrities submit doodles and artwork on small cards to be auctioned off on eBay to raise funds that will benefit NF Neurofibromatosis.

In 2010, upon request, Joe submitted 5 illustrations on 2.5" x 3" cards to raise money for the Treasure Chest of Art Charity Project.

Among the 3 other books Joe has illustrated, he was the cartoonist for the Wheel and Sprocket comics (a weekly cartoon ad) from 1989 to 2005. Wheel and Sprocket is one of the largest bike and ski stores in the country, serving 7 locations in Wisconsin. These cartoons appeared every Sunday on the front page of the Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel comics section, along with the comics; Joe created ads, billboards, T-shirt designs and brochures for this company.

Joe has also worked with many ad agencies in Wisconsin illustrating promotional items, phone book ads, T-shirts, logos, and posters.

All of Joe’s original illustrations are for sale. Wheel and Sprocket comics come with a copy of the comics section or cut out of the comics section of the Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel. Please contact Joe for prices and availability if you wish to purchase original artwork.
