Wolverine Sketch



In the interest of adding posts and keeping this blog interesting...  Really early version, here.

A Silly Sketch


Quite possibly the dumbest sketch in the universe.  I just started and soon it became the poster for Standardized Testing in the 70's.  At least it's goofy and tells some semblance of a story.  That's a step in the right direction, I guess.

More from 2002









New Post, Old Drawings







Whaaaaat?!?!  I came across my old sketch book and lo-and-behold, I was a better artist then!! It's from 2002 and I think I cared more then to get the lines right, to complete the anatomy, and to get facial expressions down.  I was in a drawing class with an amazing teacher, Glenn Vilppu.  I worked less.  How many other excuses can I come up with?

Now I look at my old drawings, and I don't see the flaws as I did when I was drawing them.  I am the king of self-criticism!  What I do see is the imagination I tell myself I lack.

Glad it was there in 2002!  Now I need it for 2008!!

Here are some examples.  More to come in the next post.

Getting Back


I took a break to relax and get my head straight after the last show.  So I am back and I am starting slowly, trying to play around again with Painter.  Sometimes it's my friend, and other times, not so much.  As a result, I am not posting my coloring tests as of yet.  But I thought I would post an updated Velma.  I just wanted to make her a bit less abstract.

Leda Progress

Here is the progress movie I promised.  Thanks to Quicktime - I just had to export it for the web.  Again, this is currently featured in the World of Wonder art show, Dial M for Madonna.

Oh, and the image that starts the movie is actually my really rough sketch on the back of my Iron Man ticket stub.  I did it while I was driving home.  Some people text while driving, others doodle.
