Lifeguard is Animated….yep that’s me.

"Suits and Guarders--all in a day's work."

​If you have ever been a fly on the wall at an indoor pool during the winter months, then you know that all the activity above is not an exaggeration. This cartoon along with three others is currently featured in the Lifeguard Times online journal. The wonderful part of being in an online journal is that this feature will still be online for years to come. How cool is that?
 
About a month ago, I received an e-mail from the Lifeguard Times Editor, Mike Rogers who found me through my Instagram posts. Hey! The social media is paying off!
 
It gave me a chuckle to find out that the article was titled “Lifeguard Gets Animated” because I always have been….and perhaps a bit too much. I was the kid that forever drew cartoon characters that interacted with pictures and text on the pages of workbooks, while completing assignments. Hmm, as you can see, I goofed off too much in spelling.  I obviously cannot spell aerobics without the aid of a dictionary or spell check, as seen in the rough sketch below.

    Ian Johnson was born with a crazy cartoon character perspective on the real world. “Suits and Guarders” is loosely based on his life as a lifeguard and swim instructor at a local pool. Any resemblance of characters in this work to persons, drawn or imagined, is purely coincidental.
