Hiatus

hiatus... that dreaded word...

well i'm on one.

with all my jet setting, show having, and life living I'm not exactly doing all the art scanning I should (I'm drawing still, yes, I'm just not scanning or finishing it.)

until I get back you can follow me on twitter and pray for random updates

:D

also I'll be in Australia so there may be some photo updates while I'm there.

maybe.

When a plan comes together

Remember this?:

Meet planning stage two:
and when that's done I'll find my way to home depot for a panel, because I'd like to do it large.

Oh and then there's the finished version of this:
Hopefully I will be getting a new camera around x-mas so that my images will be of better quality... I'm tired of how grainy these are.

Also I'll be at the Ravenswood Art Walk tomorrow... and maybe I'll remember to take pictures

T-T-Tuesday!

hey ya'll, this is a doodle:

And this is possibly an idea for a painting... possibly:

AND

I'll be in the Ravenswood Art Walk this week!

Come and check it out! My Sasquatch painting will be at #30 on this here map.

I better see you there!

Oh so many doodles...

So sorry

I've been in India, hence the lack of posting.

normal schedule resumes friday

Dunna nunna nunna nunna Batmaaaaan

short comic for you...

Post-It project

I did about 20 of these so far...
basically I got guys on craigslist to send me their pictures and I did a very quick doodle with a pen on a post it and sent it back to them... each man is identified by his favorite sandwich, if he listed it... otherwise I made shit up

Today is Tuesday...

behold, progress:a doodle:
Sorry for the lack of Friday post, I'm going to India soon and I'm running around like a chicken with her head cut off...

Not Much to Say...

work in progress

The Return of the Return of the Sasquatch

man... it's been forever guy, how are you?

Slapdash Tuesday

I feel like a kid who wasn't prepared for his english test... here's a quick tablet sketch with no hope of finish for you....:

And this is the massive painting I'm working on for a show I will be in in October:
details to come later, sorry for the low quality cell phone pic.

Sunday is Today!

First, a page from my sketchbook...
Second check out these blogs by people who are way cooler than me:
Ginger Curls
Kassandra Heller
Jenspiration!

and if you are wondering how I find other arts to look at... well usually it begins with me googling something completely unrelated and then I magically find myself on some blog and then I think "gee wiz, this sure is a swell place" and then I eat some candy.

Friday the 13th

Happy Friday the 13th, try not to get killed by any weirdos!
let's pretend these are comics....

sketchdump tuesday

So sorry for the lack of Friday posts for the last 2 weeks... this is unforgivable and I shall flog myself... or maybe just feel guilty... anyhow, sketchings:


I promise I won't forget Friday this week... and maybe I'll even give you a Sunday post.

playin'

thinking about thinking about painting (yeah that's what I said)

I don't need to say anything... it's tuesday

Friday Plans!

I went on a photowalk through Joliet to take pictures of the old houses for reference material for
that graphic novel thing I'm still in the beginning stages of working on.
So I made this little photoshop mockup as to what acertain characters side of the street looks like:
that's all carry on!

Tuesday Sketchings

Gave colored pencils a whirl:Petra doesn't enjoy being fancy:
and at some point I was feeling like drawing fantasy stuff.

see any of you nerds who care on Friday Friday Friday

F-F-f-friday

just a doodle
Also I choose a different theme, I liked the black but it didn't match my website... this is closer but I really need to do a full overhaul

And so it begins

I am extremely sorry for the lack of posts last week.
I knew I was missing, but I was more concerned with other things

anyways, started working on the first of the paintings:


this one's working title is "the commute"

planning

It's about time I start painting things again.

I haven't done a painting series since I worked on the monsters, so it's about time.

here are 3 concepts for what I'm hoping will be a 5 painting series
I don't have a title for the series as a whole yet, though I've been throwing ideas around.
each concept has a working title along with an assigned color scheme, the other two will be yellow and violet

I'm going to make them in watercolor first and then if I'm still feeling up to it I might give oils a try.

Happy Tuesday

Sweet, Glorious, Tuesday!
it is so nice having power... let's hope no more storms knock it out

More Harpies:
they're grossly off model, mostly because I didn't have the original with me for reference sake

also, here's an elven princess for your troubles:

Nature is my apology

Within the span of 5 days my power has been knocked out TWICE

so I have temporarily stolen my dear friend Marija's computer to apologize for lack of posts...

I don't know when I will get the power back but hopefully I'll be able to post by tuesday.

Harpies

bet you thought I wouldn't post today... huh?

Type?

I've been working on typographic portraits...
this is George Lucas:
I'm also doing Hayden Christensen & Billy Bob Thornton...
my theme is "people I would enjoy punching in the face" :D

Tuesday Tuesday Tuesday

I've been thinking about intestines recently:

Oh, and vampire babies:
the skill block continues... :(

Friday Sketches

Why hello there kids
here are some sketches .. in order from "most annoyed with" to "kinda okay"

an awful resketch of some characters I found in my very first sketchbook:

some dudes:

Sassy:

I think maybe I need to get back to watercolor to rid myself of such a funk
also I miss figure drawing

The Escapee

I wrote a short story about this guy which can be found here.
see ya'll on friday!

Coming at 'cha with a comic

here have a short comic that's not about drugs:

quick note

Going back to the old tuesday friday update schedule!

arts tomorrow kids!

Flowers, everywhere.

Considering turning this into a legit watercolor painting....obviously there would be more flowers... yeah.

creativity wise my brain is chock full of ideas but right now my hand doesn't seem to be cooperating, this is entirely frustrating and I really don't know what to do about it.

ugh.

What's going on here

Sorry for the lack of tuesday updates... I just suck

anyways these doodles don't make any sense... which leads me to ask...

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

picture 1)

Picture 2)
Picture 3)

what's going on here is a little game I have decided to play with my writer friend Marija (a.k.a. Rish) she's fab and when I get her response (if I get her response) I will be sure to post it up!

Also, feel free to play too... because I'm confused.
