Don't have to keep playing the lone gunslinger.

A birthday gift for a friend. Also paying homage to Ashley Wood's style. About 12x24" oil on masonite.

Til summer comes around.

Every mile a memory.

Needed to get out, did these two today in Ventura.

An older one I did quite a while ago now... About 3x4" in size.

Viper of Drawing

I've been doing a lot of figure drawing this term and it looks like I'll have even more free time so maybe I'll get good this summer. Who cares.

The Biggest Loser

First shot at the Picture This grand prize. Didn't win. Gouache and prismacolors.

Glad the term begins tomorrow...

The Hare and his arch-nemesis Barbarian Bastard. More water color break sketching.

Take a hike

Watercolor character doodles from the beginning
of break. Term 5.5 almost here.

Yippee-Kay-Yay Mother$%&#^*

The good, the bad, and the cowboy with tiny feet. Gouache and prismacolor on canson paper to be different.

Also you may now become my follower and do exactly as I instruct you. Just like Charles Manson's followers; minus the insanity, murder, weird cult stuff or swastikas on the head.

The Langford double will HOLD!

A redesign of the movie The Prestige in to an animated film. I moved the story in to the 1930's. I was going for a mixture of old Warner Bro's animations and the Max Fleischer Superman cartoons in style. This project was demanding but fun. For Richard Keyes Color and Story class.... and no it wasn't for the Fall.

50% less plastic

Week 14 post! Some quick animals from last break which feels like forever ago. I can't wait to get back out and just draw again. My brain is already on break.

Remembering Norm Schureman

Norm was a really cool guy and someone I could really relate to. We shared similar interests and I really enjoyed the trips we took in his dynamic sketching class, especially the Nethercut where he got us in the private collection tour then our class got a special tour in the restoration area which blew my gear-head mind. Also Planes of Fame, it was great being able to talk to him about the aircraft; something I don't often get to talk about with someone so knowledgeable. Not to mention he helped me improve my drawing.

Goodbye Norm, my life is certainly better for having had the pleasure to be one of your students.

Pressure

Week 9, the work is mounting.

Where are the BRAKES!?!

I'm taking drawing for Illustration this term, aka; drawing with a pen. I enjoy this class but I have a hard time slowing down. 100 mph is the speed I draw.

Come on feel the noise... I mean paper.

Drawing from the last day of Inventive Drawing.

...and another one.

I visited San Luis Obispo this weekend, and Morro Bay. I've been doing a lot of drawing from observation this break and its been a lot of fun. Especially fun at cool locations like Morro Bay with a rad looking power plant just to my right, I have a third eye now.

New Year...

...but this is old now, its from 2009. You know, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, before there was the iphone... OK, not that old.

These were some Dynamic Sketching redesigns.
