Model

I did this for Joe Olsen's drawing class. The assignment was to analyze proportions by first attempting to draw a diagram of the model, then exaggerating some characteristics to create a character. I've left out a bunch of sketches, but I've shown the final results...

I'm addicted

Both to drawing caricatures, and to this show, of which I just finished the first season on DVD. My roommate had it. It was like giving me crack. Too bad I can't paint the future.

By the way, this guy is an awesome villain... He's just so dang bad!

Another

I did this one a few weeks back, along with many others I did not deem worthy to post... I liked this one, though, even though it is not very exaggerated. I also did not do all guys, it's just that the girl charicatures sucked. I should work on that.

More Charicatures

I've decided that drawing charicatures is important to my personal well being. Hopefully, you can tell who they are...

Another departure from my norm

As I usually draw happy fuzzy things, I decided to do something different- mean fuzzy things. Here's a bear who could and probably would tear your head off if he found you in the woods. It's also a departure from my norm in that I used a blue colored pencil to draw it! Hooray!

Monkey

I attempted here to do a very graphic style monkey (similar to the previous bird design) but with a bit more personality. Not sure how well it worked, but I like him anyway... I drew it in pencil first, then cleaned it up in flash (with only the line tool and paint bucket!).

[edit- this is now a second version, added 3/8/08. I like it better with just a little texture.]

I drew this for Joe Olsen's drawing class. It's not my usual stuff! It was a lovely little bush branch, though.

Genuine, Legitimate Art

I just learned of the Holy Grail of all art tools: The AUTOMATIC MOTIVATIONAL POSTER GENERATOR!!! Yes, you read that correctly, as long as you thought you read, "The AUTOMATIC MOTIVATIONAL POSTER GENERATOR!!!"

Here's the URL, and I hope it is to you all that it is to me.

By, the way, that picture is me, and I do have three heads, and it was not touched up in any way. It's a 15 second exposure of me lighting three matches in the dark in my car.

Gee, thanks, Steve!

This was a Tshirt Design for Threadless... My college roommate posed for it. It was inspired by some technical trouble with my favorite little piece of electronic fun... I'll let you know if it is voteable later.

Bird design

Part two of the animal character design assignment. I thought I'd do this one a bit differently.
