Late Night Painting

2011-12-28T00:24:00.000-08:00

I need sleeeeppppp!

Finished!!!

2011-09-29T00:24:00.000-07:00

This thing has to go to the printer tomorrow and this is where I got. I admit that it could be a little tighter but I'm happy with the painterly quality of it all. You know what? When it's due you just have to be happy with yourself so you can start the next one feeling good, so I'm happy.

And thanks to you guys that helped me out with all the great advice, it was like a little class reunion. I really miss that studio environment.

"Just letting things happen"

2011-07-31T22:00:00.000-07:00

Lately I've been drawing these stream of conscience ink sketches really late at night, and I have to say that they have exceeded my expectations. I believe that it is helping me to resolve deep seeded fears of creating bad drawings. I'm working on making a series of these late night sketch attacks just to see where they take me. there is no meaning to these drawings that I have interpreted yet, but I would love some feed back from you guys who view the blog.

Funny Fun.

2011-06-17T15:12:00.000-07:00

Harder Than It Sounds.

2011-05-26T22:32:00.000-07:00

This Flash stuff is slow going.
I spent all day drawing up character turnarounds only to get one pose of Smolder done. Here is pose one of Smolder's turnaround with a bonus dinosaur painting.

New animation project!

2011-05-19T15:02:00.000-07:00

I have an animation project in the works right now about an evil Smokey the Bear. I've changed the name of Smokey to Smolder so there's no copy right problems. I'll also be creating a blog solely for this project so you can follow the progress.

Here is an concept drawing for the project "Smolder Bear".

Thursday Warm-ups

2011-02-25T09:33:00.000-08:00

I've got this new brush pen called The Pentel Pocket Brush and I love it! If you haven't tried one you have got to! It's the closest thing to using an actual sable brush.

Free Time

I got inspired to sketchbook pro late into the night... Sleepy time.

Grrrrr!

2010-11-24T22:51:00.000-08:00

You know when you have this great idea in your mind, and you jump right into the drawing and painting process with out finding good reference? You just don't want to lose that mental image, then you start f@#%ing it up! And no matter how hard you try to bring it back from the dead its just beyond you powers. Well... That's just what this is. Why post? You got me, I just felt like it okay?

Leatherhead

2010-11-23T22:41:00.001-08:00

Well, I've been away for awhile and although that always seems to be the case I have a legitimate excuse this time... I'm sure you don't care though. While I've been waiting to return to the inter-webs I have also been working on my matte painting skills. I know it could always be better I had fun painting this one. Leatherhead is a character for the 90's ninja turtle cartoon.

Working through the rough...

2010-10-10T21:52:00.000-07:00

I want to get this one fully cleaned and colored by Tuesday... Here is the catch, I work 10 hours tomorrow. Pray for me.

Hungry?

2010-10-07T15:28:00.000-07:00

Lunch Time... I keep trying to get this color thing down and man is it tough.

Mind... Always changing.

2010-10-07T10:40:00.000-07:00

Man I can't stay on one thing for nothing! This just POPPED in my head and I had to get it out.

Trying again

2010-10-06T23:44:00.000-07:00

Ok, so I took a step back and realized that I was jumping the gun by rushing into the painting stage. So here is a refined under painting, I think things will move along a lot smoother from here.

Too Long!

2010-10-05T18:02:00.000-07:00

Man!!! I totally forgot how long it takes to do a painting! A Sample

Under Painting

2010-09-28T11:17:00.000-07:00

I just got the coolest sketch book in the world!!! It's called a Super Deluxe... Why is it sooo cool you might ask. Well, that's because you can watercolor right on the damn thing! I think I'm in love.

WHAT? YOU WANT MORE? OKAY!

2010-09-15T08:28:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I know you want to know what the the comic will actually look like. Well, okay, here's page 1!

OUT FROM UNDER THE ROCK!!!

2010-09-15T08:26:00.001-07:00

Holy Cow!! It has been over a year since my last post! What have I been doing you may ask. Well it wasn't getting hired by any prominent animation or comic companies. I wasn't getting rich, in fact I was just scraping by and getting slapped in the face by reality.
However, I never stopped drawing and I haven't stop trying for that pie in the sky dream of being a pay artist. So, I've started a web comic, and although the site that will house this comic isn't finished yet you will be the first to know when it is.
Here's a tastes of things to come.
