About

DaveArmstrong_Headshot-BWjpg.jpg

Dave Armstrong is an illustrator who hails from the foothills of central Ohio. Cold winters and thirty flapjacks a day have made him tough as nails and big-as-all-outdoors. He was raised by bears and won his drawing ability in a card game with a witch.

Legends say he's been dead for forty years. Others say he's still available for freelancing, commissions and merrymaking.
