You might not recognize the name, or the face but you’ve probably seen his work. Dan Merchant is an Emmy Award winning writer and filmmaker. His most recent project is a documentary, and companion book titled, Lord Save Us From Your Followers. While I haven’t seen the documentary (yet) I have read the book. Its an honest and personal look at his journey as “Bumper Sticker Man” probing for an answer to the question, why is the Gospel of love dividing America.

Dan and I exchanged a few emails and he was very complimentary of my avatar. He hinted around that he might commission me to illustrate him after he sold enough books. I decided not to wait and surprised him with this.
