Government, Big Buisness, Greed & Opportunities Wasted

Now the government wants to drill offshore. They want us to forget that oil isn't the answer. We have such a huge opportunity here to change for the better and I just hope the country can keep its wits and stay focused on better energy sources.

Just doodling..

Don't ask me what this is just felt like sketching and coloring. I imagined this to be Barbeque man. He would fling steaks and kabobs at unsuspecting people.

Again nothing but just drawing and letting the stupid flow out of my hand.

I love the stupid.

Ever have one of these days?

I did.

Wet work during the Honeymoon

Did a couple of water color sketches in Bora Bora, this is one.

And a few more things

This is some stuff that if I was gonna put out a sketchbook, is how I would do it.

So just about a year huh? Crap.

Well it's been a while and I figured out that there is alot of stuff that I didn't like until I went back into it.  I am not a good blogger but have faith, I don't know why but have faith.

A gift for a friend

This was a birthday gift for a friend. I was really just fooling around and I am not quite there with the composition and all but I like the concept. I was inspired by a piece my friend Dave had in a show at Meltdown Comics. He is an amazing artist that I really look up too. I am on a journey to bring my craft up to his caliber of work. Just very slowly.

Some more old and new

As I go through life I see other amazing artists and are really taken by thier styles, so I take a piece of every great artist I see, (and there are certainly alot of amazing artists out there) and I incorporate a bit of there style with my own skills crafting my style. For the longest time I was pretty happy with my style, from highschool through college. Then I started working in the animation industry and lost my style, or at least I didn't like it as much. There were so many more amazing styles that I neglected my own and only followed. Now this is not to say that I didn't do my own art, it is rather that I did not recognize my own work as my own. As everyone I know would say, " I over thought it." I was never happy with what I came up with, I was always trying to make it someone elses. Now I don't know if I am totally past that. I feel like a style is like a river, slowly it will bend a different way, widen at spots and narrow at others. A style is a living, breathing entity, and I guess what I am trying to say is I lost touch with my style for a while, we were having our differences. But I think we are understanding each other a little more each day, and I just recently realized how much I have missed it. My favorite piece here is from highschool, it's the skater holding the little guy.

It has been a while

It's been too long, so I just created this to post and to express my feelings on the present situation.

Got to walk the red carpet!!

So last night was the opening of a show that I am in at, "The Museum of Radio and Television." I had the pleasure of showing a piece I did with twenty other amazing artists in a show that Fox did called, "What the Deuce Are You Looking At!" Its a really great show and I would make sure to check it out in some way. But the super cool part is, I got to walk the red carpet and get interviewed! I got to talk with FOX NEWS, some Fox affiliates, UGO, and some others I just can't think of right now. The stuff will probably never make it to the air, but it was alot of fun just the same.

Here is the piece I did. I think its okay because its being published now.

What The Deuce Are You Staring At!!!

So I am in an artshow with a few other friends at, "The Museum of Television & Radio" Fox had asked us to do a painting of the Family Guy characters as we saw them. This picture was an alternate not the one I submitted. Im not really sure if I can display the actual piece. But if you get a chance you should really go down and check it out. There are some really great pieces. Works by Joe Vaux, Mark Covell. Its down in Beverly Hills so it would make a nice day out in any case. Well hope you enjoy this piece.

Its been a while.

Girls

Okay so I have just recently discovered, "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" and Russ Myers. WOW. So now begins the part of my life that I draw women and all of thier wonderful curves. This should be fun.
This is the beginning...

James Bond show

So this is a piece I did for a James Bond show at M Modern Gallery. My first public show.

Just a couple more

Sketchbook sketches

The Family Guy StarWars Alphabet show.

Well Zach Moncrief had a Starwars Alphabet artshow and it was AWSOME! 26 people in the office including myself randomly picked a letter and did a coresponding character or scenerio pertaining to the Starwars Galaxy. I got the letter "F". So here is my painting of, "Fat", "Boba-Fat."
