So I haven't posted much lately. Works been busy, I've been out enjoying the world and the company of good people, while all the while shooting out fiddly lil' drawings, on odd scraps o' paper....I committed some of these throw away drawings to my first installment of VISUAL VOMIT! basically a post where I chuck down some crud..... and in this case add a bit o' color... I've also been thinking a lot about some art stuff that I'll probably post up here in the near future but for now...I will assault your eyeballs..
Hope you dig...

MARK YOUR DANCE CARD!!

She's hoping she can lure in a dance partner.... But, I don't think she'll have a problem... This is an old photoshop sketch with a little bit of attention thrown at it...in between projects... I've been playing with color quite a bit lately and I think this was a fun successful little image...I've got some other ones on deck....
SO I'd BETTER GET A PAINTIN'!
FEED BACK AND COMMENTS ARE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED...and as always....
I hope you dig...

LOST and UNDERGROUND...

So, I've posted almost nothing this month...
I dunno whats going on lately..
I'm recovering from some dental work and I really have been slacking off on my drawing and painting a little... and otherwise I've been a little listless..
Then, last night I saw a great movie.....the image should give you some clue as to what the picture was.....
It reminded me why I why I make art...So check back in during MAY!
Hope you dig..

Sorry I've been away so long, from posting and the like....
I Have definitely been sketching and painting. Here's a little lady having some midday coffee... much like myself right now...
I'm finding that I like digital paints a lot more when they're kinda rough and abstract..
Hope you dig... Would love to hear what you think....

Fear the Gearaffe!

My buddy Antonio Romero, has been working on independent comic projects for some time....Recently he's endeavored to stepp up his efforts and be even more prolific with his work, he's devoting lots of time to the endeavor. Very commendable...
He'd asked me sometime back if I'd contribute an image based on any of the characters from his book Super Duper Ham. I chose to render out this sketch of the Gearaffe, essentially a giraffe in a giant mech suit...AMAZING...I love him so much...
Thanks to Antonio for this great character.. It was a lot of fun to paint...
Hope you dig...

Hope you dig...

MIGHTY MENACING MODOK

So, Here's an image of MODOK facing off against Scott Summers. It turns out MODOK overheard some people talking about how "Optic" Blasts where superior to "Mind" Blasts. This led our favorite Mental Organism to sneak into the danger room at Xavier Institute For Higher Learning, and turn Ole' Scott into sizzling splattered Succotash...
Game, Set, Match. Modok.

George Petty

Here's another quick facial study, this time I worked from a very small image of George Petty, the artist famed for his creation of the Petty "Pin Up" Girl.
I had a rough time finding a decent photo to work from but it still wound up being a bit of good fun...
Here's the ref...

MUCHA!!

I had a little off time, while waiting on an assignment so I figured I'd do a quick study of one of my artistic heroes. Alphonse Maria Mucha, I've got little bits of his work around my apartment and my workspace and I'll probably always dig his stuff...I had a tough time landing some good reference images but, think that it came out alright.. Beyond that I was kinda surprised to find out that his face seemed very familiar to a friend of mine, and I dunno if that was good or bad for the overall outcome....would like to do more of these and some more caricatures... JEEZE I wanna take some classes..

RENO-DOK!!

Hope you dig,

ROCKABILLY!!

This is actually a bit of art from last year... It wound up being a birthday card for a friend I've had since elementary school...I kinda liked it when I stumbled on the old sketch file and figured you could have a look..
"He's got hair up high and a six string under one arm..."
Hope you dig..

Pucker Up Kid....

I can't seem to focus...But am anxious to get back into a rhythm with some figure drawing and the like...

Zatoichi!!!

Here's another caricature....
He's Shintaro Katsu!, Star of many Japanese films from the 60's and 70's...I was watching these on Netflix for while and really enjoy the character...and the actor...
Pretty strange guy, but very believable as the blind masseur, who wanders feudal japan with a heightened sense of awareness and the ability to wield a blade with incredible deftness....
I think the text I put in there means "I can hear (see) you"..... I've forgotten now...
Hope you dig..

Like a man on the road, looking for somewhere to hang is hat...

Must Draw everyday.....EVERY...DAY...

As some hobos tend to do...

LIVE NUDES!

I got a call recently from my buddy Santos. He's a little gray and white rabbit that belongs to my friend Matt, and his lady Jenni. Santos invited me by to do some drawings... But, I don't think he communicated all the details to me...
For more of Matt's brilliant work, scope out BOY,GIRL,RABBIT!

POETICALLY SPEAKING...

This gentleman here pens fine prose,
writing in neatly spaced rows..
In his hand is a quill,
which makes verses quite Ill..
And it keeps him from picking his nose..
Hope you like the crumby poem and the quick art...

BERSERKER!!!

"His eyes rolled over white,
Like a shark about to bite.
Raised his blade on the attack
to slay, then slash, and hack.
No pain felt he in his side
where two arrows pierced his hide.
Just raised his Voice to Scream,
he was a mighty death Machine..."
Sorry for the crappy five minute poem...
This image spawned out of an old sketchbook drawing that I wanted to paint with some moody colors....and some implied motion....
Just a little practice on this barbarian dude...
Hope you dig..

OFF THE WAGON, ON THE WAGON, and UNDER THE WAGON....

SO, with the holidays fast approaching I'm again confronted with the cold facts that I'm kinda disorganized while also being prone to veering off task. Under this current regime of working weekends, holidays, and (the newly added) Chiropractic Visits my blog has suffered a little...
It's today that I choose to rectify this error and share a little with the people who deem this blog fit to look at. It's a visualization of a local comic artist I've heard of.... He's a friend of a friend, and I have to say I really dig his work...The man's name...REX TARKLETON...
If you'd like to see some of his stuff stop in over at..brendantobin.blogspot.com where he submits comics by way of my friend Brendan Tobin under the headings...."KIND OF Okay Comics"....
I suggest you READ THEM...
Other then that I'm still scribbling and painting, and now..I'll get to posting some of it to you all to see...
I hope everyone is doing well, and that as always...
I HOPE YOU DIG..
