its been a week but i've been busy watching crazy babies- added some cobalt blues and greens to contrast- defined the birds- no where near done yet :P

Work in Progress

2008-06-13T14:17:00.000-07:00

these are the two paintings i've been working on- they're both quite large - acrylic on canvas

TechnicolorPanther- the panther looks kinda blue in this pic- i think because of the flash- actually he is VERY PURPLE

Usurper- these sea horses are very upset for some reason- my friends and i like discuss which is the 'good guy' here- quite large- acrylic on canvas

both are for sale- will appear at various upcoming events until they're sold- i'll post new pics of them when they're complete

Upcoming Shows

2008-06-12T23:54:00.000-07:00

i'm attempting to contribute to several upcoming shows- first as many pencil sketches as i can manage will be sent to a Comics themed show at The Empty Space- heres what i have so far
Chinese Dragon in Sky

and Medusa1

haven't thought about prices yet- i'll add more as they're completed
i'm intentionally leaving many of these 'rough' so you can see the various levels i work through on each drawing- some may be cleaned up more than others as i work
i may also do a few charcoal drawings, though thats inherently messy :P

Finally!

2008-03-25T12:31:00.000-07:00

Finally i have new art to post- this needs a bit of touching up but is basically done.

i believe this is the closest thing i've ever done to a person in this style.

and a closeup- i don't really have a title for this yet.

i'll be displaying this painting at Faerie Festival next Sunday but i doubt it will sell- i'll also be selling a COLORING BOOK there- actually it'll likely just be stapled together because i'm POOR- anyone interested in buying a copy of the coloring thing can email me for more info.

I'm also accepting assignments starting at $350

*Update- this painting has been SOLD to Rory in New Mexico for $300. Check back for more available paintings coming soon!

Self Portraits

2006-06-17T12:00:00.000-07:00

We were assigned two self portraits- one conveying some type of strong emotional element and the other being as visually representative as possible.

Drawing of Desi

2006-06-17T11:56:00.000-07:00

Another friend of mine who modeled for the class. The assignment was to complete a drawing in 20 minutes.

Figure Drawings of Paul

2006-06-17T03:41:00.000-07:00

These are drawings of Paul done in the figure drawing class at Bakersfield College.
Paul is a dear friend whom i trained as a figure model and recommended to the instructor.

First, my very first compressed charcoal drawing.

This was a difficult pose that i managed to make work- and was one of the pieces i chose to represent my work for finals presentations.

A difficult pose for Paul which he maintained for more than 20 minutes.

Here's one in pencil.

And another that my teacher rather liked.

Drawings of Tsunami

2006-05-13T20:22:00.000-07:00

Tsunami came and sat for us cuz we wanted to draw again- it's been like a year or something since we got to draw anybody :P

I think i'm going to be completely unoriginal and use this particular blog to post drawings and such for people to see. I wish i had my tattoo book here with me but i lent it to my roommates brother- he's getting one of my pieces sometime soon.
Check back here for stuff.
