Illustration of a pickle with a mustache riding a yellow bicycle on a street, with clouds in the sky.

with a mustache, riding a bicycle.

Two animated pickles with mustaches and arms are sitting on bar stools at a counter, holding beer mugs, in a watercolor style.

We all need a little whimsy

I’ve always loved creating art that makes you laugh for no reason. It’s silly, absurd, and just brings you joy.

Who are
Sprocket & Lloyd?

I named this funny, joyful illustration business after my two dogs who have since passed on. They were silly old men, a wirehaired dachshund and basset hound, who embodied the whimsy of these prints.

I went to School of Visual Arts for illustration, worked in advertising and graphic design for most of my career, and now I get to paint “happy little pals” for everyone to enjoy.
