King of Laziness


I took a figure drawing class last summer from Adam Ford. In it he talked a lot about gesture. So I’ve been doing a lot of gesture sketches in my sketch book when I get the chance. I’m still trying to figure out what he’s been talking about. I’ve also been reading both of the Drawn to life: Walt Stanchfield Lecture books. He also talks A LOT about gesture.
I captured a gesture of one of my brothers lying on the couch the other day, and then some guy at lunch eating something. It only takes like a minute and then I let them sit in my book for awhile. After some time I came back to them with some Prismacolor markers. I think they came out a lot better than just sketching from my head. The gesture really helps put a story into it. Better than anything I can come up with. I really enjoyed making my brother into the king of laziness and the guy at lunch into a sad robot.

Father's day

This is what I did for my Dad for Father's day this year. He's always been asking if I could put my nephews face (Mayson) on a picture of his dad in cowboy hat. Well, I couldn't find one so I took a picture of his great grandpa in the service and combined them. It took about 3 hours in Painter. And He liked it.

Jenny's Thing

Well, this looks gross! But that's what it looks like. My wife had a procedure and temporarily has this thing on her leg . It's sort of a blister. I believe it has bones and baby teeth inside swimming in the puss. So I had to capture it. I did this in painter in about 5 min. Gross! But my wife is still hot :)

New Blog Finally


School has died down enough for me to do what I want. I've been sick and tired of my wordpress blog. It's still cool but it takes forever to get anything on the web. So I have created this new blog! Hooray! I would like to dump all of the art I've been creating for the past couple of months right here. Some... most of these were done in like a half hour. Because that's all the time I have when I'm not doing school work or working. Enjoy! Let me know what you think.
