A late night, current events, my usual art supplies plus a Very Large red sharpie and a Very Large (almost dry) black sharpie, and a piece of brown card stock. Behold, something a little darker than my usual fluffy goodness. At the moment I’m trying to get a bit more experience with expressing a feeling, rather than just line technique . . . .
Finally making use of Adobe Illustrator. So far so good!
A commission I finished recently for my friend Brett Wildeman, a musician friend of mine.

Another one from the vaults! I haven’t been drawing as much as I ought to be lately, so here’s an old Illustration assignment from my Graphic Design classes last year. Its a scratchbord etching, scratchbord being a white clay tile with a thin layer of black clay on top. Considering that this and everything else in the scratching/etching family is aesthetically my least favorite medium, I’m quite happy with how it came out; all I can say is that It certainly pays to have a light touch . . . 
Oh, to be this cool! So cool that your skin turns blue. An old one, but definitely worth posting.
Some of you may have noticed my Portfolio page remains under construction– due, it so happens, to a mix of blurry photos and several unsatisfactory projects still in need of replacement! While I work towards creating the Perfect Portfolio that Is Everything I Could Ever Want, here are a few snapshots of one my better projects, Blue DevilJeans.
Before I reshoot this I plan on branding a pair of socks to go with them, so that our Blue Devil’s hooves won’t get chilly . . .
I admit, I drew this mostly as an excuse to create flowing trouser lines . . . .
Neck beards! It looks like I just can’t get enough of them! This was the result of a long afternoon of sketching at Powell’s Books. Be expecting more digital coloring such as this, although of course I’ll always prefer doing it by hand . . .
For this I drew inspiration from Japanese aesthetics, and I have to say, I’m quite pleased with the result; time and effort certainly pays off in the long run! I’m hoping to create more stuff in this delicious style, with minimal colors, and a flat effect. This was originally going to be a new logo for my page, but as these things go, It got too complex to be adequately reduce-able. That, and it looks nothing at all like me!
