Sketchers.

Long time no post! I have a lot to post about that I've been working on in the past few months. From my last post you might think that i got a lizard and then it grew to 15 feet long and then ate me. but i assure you that isn't what happened. (she is growing a lot and she laid two slimy eggs though). For the time being here are some initial brainstorm sketches for a book im illustrating! The book is about a friend of mine and his daughter on their ride to work/daycare in the morning. There are going to be lots of cool playgrounds and castles to come.

Bring it GEICO.

I left my wacom pad at home so i will finish the sandwich one when i bring it back to work. for now, i've been drawing this guy with just the mouse.

remember to paint yourself battling a hydra that has mercury comments instead of heads.

I have been feeling not so productive lately from a painting standpoint so rather than doodling in my short breaks at work I'm trying to paint a bit. here is one I'm working on now. I'm not sure what I'm going to have him looking at. . . . an alien looking arm or tentacle? the divine peanut butter and ambrosia sandwich? or maybe just a thing. a computerized thing that is sort of shiny and new and exciting, but might also very well suck you in and never let you out and see the sun again. It might have some chromed points and brass pipes and a touch screen. some sort of gear that spins around but doesn't really seem to accomplish anything from an engineering standpoint. . . maybe he should be just about to insert a coin into this steaming hissing whirring thing. . . or maybe it should be spitting something out or presenting him with something like an orange or just the orange peel. Or maybe he should be looking at his own reflection . . . woah. deep. or maybe i should be getting back to work now......

oh and also here is another thing that i posted earlier that i started painting as well.....

PS the new photoshop cs5 brushes are the s__t.
