Nathan Shields is a pancake artist. He wears many hats, however: he’s an illustrator, a math teacher, and a dad. His children, Gryphon and Alice, have fun making pancake beetles or sharks or creative designs of their own, such as Gryphon’s “adapted Jolly Roger featuring Darth Vader and two light sabers.”

Shields takes the art to another level with detailed portraits—Star Trek stars, for example—but anyone can make simple designs with his simple method.
