Self Portrait Day 2012

Gosh this year is flying by! Today is International Self Portrait Day.

I originally wanted to keep it in the same time frame as the one I did last year, but decided to just keep going to finish it.

Demon Babe

Wow, it's embarrassing how long I've updated... Here's a speed paint clocking in around 4-5 hours!

Sketchy Saturday: Last of '11

Hard to believe this year has already come and gone! What started off as a year of struggle and strife turned into a year of reward and art. I'm completely passionate about art again and cannot wait to see what I come up with the next year. I already have some projects planned, but it's the unexpected that keeps me going.

My next year resolutions are short, simple, and sweet:
1) Less thinking, more doing.
2) Create more.
3) Take more pictures.

Otherwise, here are some sketches and experimental paintings - the last of the year!

Happy new year! :) Onward to 2012!

Self Portrait 2011

Holy carp, it's November, WHOA!

Anyways, I've always wanted to participate in self portrait day, so... here I am! Looking like a serious frumpy grump without my glasses, hah.

I have quite a few pieces in WIP limbo... Keep an eye out for them. :)

Sketchy Saturday: Two in a Row

We only have challenges in life so we may overcome them. At least, according to very tired and optimistic me.

Sketchy Saturday: Better Late Than Never

Keep missing my Saturday updates... But as the proverb goes: Better late than never!

I'm enjoying doing still lives with pencil lately. Mostly to build up my patience but learning how to work the pencil again has been lovely.

Sketchbook liter, characters characters characters...

Fiddling around with sketches in Photoshop. 

Thanks for your time. :)

Here we go, something more along the lines of what I see myself doing for the rest of my life - writing and drawing comics!

Luckily, my friend Paul Richards had put together a comic jam where the attendees had to create a three page comic. Definitely was a learning experience, both on how to tackle something I've been wanting to take seriously for quite some time and also the best way to communicate a story with strictly images!

Here are all three pages for your viewing pleasure: 

More to come, that's for sure! Thanks for your time. 

Sketchy Saturday

I've been having fun using excess paint and other mediums for my sketches. 

Here's also a WIP for a challenge on CGHub:

Dreams in Gray

I have strayed too far from myself and my art. It's time to change that.
