Illustration Friday: Prehistoric

This is an illustration I did for the Illustration Friday topic "Prehistoric". I created this image entirely digitally using Corel Painter and Wacom drawing tablet. 

I'm a huge lover of dinosaurs, so this piece was totally enjoyable to create.

Illustration friday-Beginning

This last week in Jim Madsen's digital painting class we had to come up with an illustration from the word "beginning". This word comes from the weekly challenges that illustrationfriday.com hosts. The other requirement was to illustrate it in a scratchboard style. I thought it would be fun to do the last Son of Krypton at the beginning of his life. The assignment was to just be in black and white but I thought it might look better with some simple colors. It reminds me of the old comics from the 50s and 60s that I've seen. This one was a lot of fun. I love doing crosshatching and drawing in this graphic style.

Be excellent to each other!

Well, the semester has started up again at Utah Valley University and I'm pretty excited! I'm taking a digital painting class from Jim Madsen. So far it's an AWESOME class. Also, I'm going to have a booth at the Salt Lake Comic con FanXperience this April where I'll be selling prints of my artwork. I can not tell you how stoked I am about this opportunity.
This is the first of many that I will be selling there. It's a combination of the two greatest time traveling movies of the 80's. I'm a HUGE fan of Back to the Future and Bill and Ted's excellent adventure.

Heroes in a half shell!

I was asked to do some TMNT fan art last year. I thought it would be nice to post it before I forget. This was tons of fun to do. Ninja Turtles are awesome in my book. I grew up watching the cartoons and movies and played with the action figures. So when this assignment came up I was pretty happy about it. Also, I'm pretty sure the foot clan and the Turtles were robots. ;) at least, that's what I remember.

While I painted this illustration I listened/watched this:

And this: 

Awesome!

It's Cold!!!

This is a cartoon I created for the UVU Review. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Cartoon # 2
