Yup, been a long time!

Ok, so I know its been a long time since I have posted, I'm still drawing every day but not getting to the scanning part. This is the sketch/rough for a commission I am working on. Once the person give me the dimensions of that frame Ill start on the actual art piece. For now I am just gonna have some fun coloring everyone's favorite Christmas Haloween cross over hero!!!

Little Mermaid

Here is my take on Disney's Little Mermaid. Last weekend I went to the Egyptian Theater with my girl friend where we saw a screening of the movie fallowed by a panel with Glen Kean (not sure I'm spelling his name correctly, sorry if its wrong). He has worked at Disney for so long, and even helped make Tangled the great animation it was by showing some 2D tips to the 3D animators. I hope to go to more events like this in the future as they obviously inspire me to draw.Thanks for tuning and catch you on the flip side.

Christmas Card Mayham!!!!

Ive been busy getting my Christmas cards done. A few several trips to Staples for the prints. Th first time I got lucky they messed up the color because I noticed I had a typo, but then thy printed the interior to big and it got cut off when I cut out the extra. They where nice though and because all in all I had to go back 3 times, I got my prints for free, and made notes for future prints to tell them to be sure to fallow certain steps. I used a bone folder to get nice folds and my mat cutter doubled as an excelent paper cutter still using the original blade. Ive been gathering addresses of family and friends and will be sending them out soon. Did you know stamps are now 44 cents? Nuts right? Any how, thanks for tuning in and catch you on the flip side.

Chrsitmas Card 2010

Here it is, the finished product, still have to look at printing options and get a list together for who and where they are. Santa here in his green sweatshirt is taking a nice nap from "checking it twice". Thanks for tuning in, and catch you on the flip side.

Christmas Card Up Date

Here is the inked version of my Christmas Card. Ive decided to go with digital colors as I am short on time and traditional colors take a lot more time to pull off. I think I mentioned this before but the names listed are of family and friends young kiddos. Ill be posting colored Santa tomorrow I hope, but no promises. Thanks for tuning in and catch you on the flip side.

Last Day at Old Job

I gave my 2 weeks notice, but next week there is no class due to the holiday. So it appears to be that today will be my last class with a certain great bunch of kids, I will miss them, and I hope they carry on with the stuff I have taught them. So they are getting some limited edition variant prints of QuickStryke (ok, to be honest, i didn't like my background colors and will be redoing them). Hopefully my ink will last and I wont have to make it one print per household, lol, they may not even want it. Anyways, here it is, what they will be getting. Hope you like it, thanks for tuning in and catch you on the flip side.

Christmas Card Preview

So Ive wrapped up warming up, got in my groove, and here is a preview at my 2010 Christmas card, the names on the list are of family kids or friends kids. Santa is tired from checking the list and we got him here sleeping, not sure if I want to do inks and digital colors or if I want to do this as one of my traditional medium art pieces. Thanks for tuning in, and catch you on the flip side.

I was gonna do 2 in one day!

I was gonna put this guy up earlier, to post up 2 in one day, but from drawing my Christmas card (ill be posting that as well) I got side tracked and here it is, at about 2am my time. I will do more of these on the spot made up characters, but for now its Christmas card painting and backgrounds. This guy is a magic powered super hero, his name is Henry Porter (see what I did there?), and he doesn't need a wand. Its late so I am off to bed, thanks for tuning in and catch you on the flip side.

Getting more in tune with myself

I mentioned in my last post that I'm warming up, this is to work out some kinks in my work that tend to happen when I do the great evil that is not draw for too long. Usually I post later on in the day, but since I am not sure if I will be able to I am doing it now. I tend to draw good guys, so here is a bad chick, I named her GhostFire, her power you ask, I don't know, something to do with her white fire being all ghost powered? I hope you like it, thanks for tuning in and catch you on the flip side.

Ninja-Gunslinger

Ok, here is a Pop inspired costume (I was looking at a people magazine). Ive been so busy looking for a new job I have not been drawing much, and so these are a few pin ups I worked on as a warm ups. This pop star turns into a Ninja-Gunslinger with the addition of a blade and a gun, its fun but not quite my A game, just working out those bad habits in my warm ups. There is one more I will probably be posting tomorrow, then on to environments, and then through peeps in and we will get some shots. Ill be heading back to Top Cow once I start my new job and can afford the gas, and some new Bristol board as well. Thanks for tuning in, catch you on the flip side.
