The Elephant in the Room

Define it.

Leslie's Angels

There's been a rampant crime spree on the streets of Clifton Forge these days. (And no, I don't mean a runaway cow.)
So who do you call, The Angels of course.

Old Territory

I try not to retread places I've already been before with my sketches, but I was called out on my comic nerd-dom the other day and thought I'd pull out my favorite comics..(the X-Men) which feature my favorite character Gambit. Say what you will about him, but I always thought a card throwing, bow staff wielding, trench coat wearing hero was the coolest thing since Wonderbread. I'm still mad he wasn't in the movie, Toad - but no Gambit? Come on!!

I don't read them much now as they appeal to much younger age demographic and reality has set in, but every once in awhile I go back. After all, comics led me to graphic design and the entire art world in the first place.

A Reyes Reinterpretation

I've reinterpreting alot of other people's family pictures lately (for fun, for modest commissions, or for presents.) I must say it's alot of fun just hearing the story's behind the pictures and making my own while I drawn them. Since I got this one off of a photograph, I misinterpreted what was supposed to be a clutch bag as a piece of someone's pants. Turns out the person in question was not wearing silk creme colored pants as I thought (thank goodness) but wearing black trousers. S. assures me that said person keeps up with fashion trends. )And was not wearing silky pants.)

Merry X-Mas..

Decided to give some framed artwork this year for Christmas presents. It worked out alot better than an anticipated.
Thought I'd share it with you peeps.
Happy (belated) Holidays..!

7:00's

This is my homage to Zach Braff. I've been watching alot of Scrubs right after work lately. Funny, funny show.

Doodling at Barnes

Deftones

I went to a Deftones Concert this past Weds.... and it was awesome. In the 90's I used to draw all my fav rock groups So I figured to commemorate 96 and an awesome show...I'd draw and add some lyrics. Huzzah!

Mars Volta

I guess I should start drawing pictures of groups I actually listen to on a regular. Oh well, the Televators video was dope.

Thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving isn't always about Turkey. Mine this year really wasn't. Sometimes I just don't feel like writing out everything. A pictures is worth a thousand headaches.

Corpse Autumn

Autumn loves Corpse Bride and hates Sun Tans.

Tuxedo Un-Masked??

One of my friends loves Sailor Moon, and since he didn't make the Sailor Scouts team I figured he could assist Tuxedo Mask.

Style change up

Sometimes I like to just play with the brushes and markers in photoshop and see where it takes me. No real goal here except to get some ideas out of head and onto paper. Which can really be a challenge considering all the different thoughts floating around in head at any given moment.

Iraqui Freedom

My job is military oriented so from time to time, I find myself working on patches for units stationed in Iraq. I'd love to say I came up with the concept for this, but unfortunately it was sent over as a very (very) rough stick figurey skull with a very silly USA helmet of sorts on fabric. I redid the skull and the turbin (turben?) and the rest is up on the screen.

CJ

A few (okay 5) years ago, my friends son was asleep on a bean bag in the floor. He just looked cute and peaceful and I drew this while he was being still. It's an older sketch, but it's got a memory and I like it.

Wit

In one of my old figure drawing classes we watched a movie called WIT. It chronicled a college professors battle with cancer and just how de-humanizing the clinical side of medicine can be. Our professor froze certain frames of the movie to draw. This was one of my favorites.

Commissioned Stuff

These were pictures I did in response to the manufactured War on Xmas hullaballoo that went on last year.

My cousin Ashley

Yep, she got married.
