Captain America 11x14

Commission for a friend's son's comic book themed room.

He now has 4 of my drawings...

Marilyn Monroe w/ Darth Vader

2011-10-08T22:51:00.000-07:00

Commission for a fan of Darth Vader and Marilyn Monore.... not something I ever expected to draw.

Will post a better pic of it after I get it scanned on Monday.

X-Men Commissions

2011-06-21T21:20:00.000-07:00

Couple of commissions I got at Planet ComicCon that I just got time to finish up finally. The boards the covers were made from didn't like the markers/prismacolor too much so I had to do way less layers than I normally do... I think they turned out, but I had to fight it the whole time. Sometimes the paper/board just wont take anymore marker/prismacolor.

2009-09-22T09:43:00.000-07:00

Starting to draw again after a few weeks of mostly graphic design... doing a series of Star Wars sketches, 5.5x7. These are the first 4 of the 12 I hope to do.

Gamorrean Gaurd, Emperor Palpatine, Royal Gaurd & Boba Fett.

Joker

2009-08-06T11:13:00.001-07:00

One last ArtWalk piece before I hang up stuff for the show. The Joker. not a great quality photo of it....

Optimus Prime

2009-07-25T17:34:00.000-07:00

Trying to change things up a bit by drawing a robot, Optimus Prime. Again I am still on my old computer so the color/quality of this pic is bad, my monitor's color sucks so its hard to tell if what you are seeing is even remotely close to what it should look like, hope to get that situation fixed soon...

Vin Diesel

2009-07-21T21:53:00.000-07:00

Still finishing up the work from over the weekend, this time its Vin Diesel.

I am still having trouble with my computer, I have no idea if the color is good on this photo of the drawing but I am posting anyway, and once I have my actual computer back I can check the colors and re-post.

Burn Notice: Michael Westen

2009-07-21T15:02:00.000-07:00

Here is my latest piece: Michael Westen from Burn Notice.

May not be the best image ever, and the color/contrast may be off, I am using an 11 year old monitor until i get my recently fried iMac back to working, once i do i will post a better image.

True Blood: Sookie Stackhouse

2009-07-19T07:43:00.000-07:00

Drawing #6 Sookie Stackhouse from the HBO show True Blood. This is the second drawing of this image of her I have done, you can see my last one in one of my blog posts in May. But this one is larger and I needed to have at least a couple women in this series so it wasn't all men. Just hope the person who bought the last one isn't too upset that I did another ;)

Albert Pujols

2009-07-16T21:05:00.001-07:00

ArtWalk drawing #5: Albert Pujols.

Spock

2009-07-15T10:33:00.000-07:00

ArtWalk drawing #4: Spock.

House, M.D.

2009-07-13T13:19:00.000-07:00

Another drawing for the ArtWalk. this time House.

For those asking how I am doing these so quickly, it is because I set 4 or 5 drawings up at a time and get them all to the point where I am ready to start rendering it with Prismacolor, so the time in between each of these is just how long it takes for me to "color" the drawings. So all of the set up and drawing parts of these were done in the past couple weeks in preparation for this week's work.

Indiana Jones

2009-07-12T09:59:00.000-07:00

2nd in the series of ArtWalk pieces like this(John Locke being the first) 3rd new piece I have done for the ArtWalk: Indiana Jones.

John Locke

2009-07-11T07:12:00.000-07:00

A piece for my ArtWalk show. I decided to try and draw people with distinctive, recognizable faces, first up: Locke from LOST, more challenging than I imagined.

Bumblebee

2009-07-05T21:52:00.000-07:00

Another commission, I actually did this a few weeks back but held off posting it because it was for a gift and didn't want to ruin the surprise... not that a lot of people follow my blog, but just in case.

Legolas

2009-07-03T18:04:00.000-07:00

A commission I got through my website, Orlando Bloom/Legolas from Lord of the Rings. 11x14 Prismacolor with marker underbase.

Mia 2

2009-06-19T14:07:00.000-07:00

Did this drawing for a friend. With a reference photo assist from megantrowerphotos.blogspot.com.

Ghostbusters

2009-06-15T10:52:00.000-07:00

My most recent piece is of the 3 main Ghostbusters (Sorry Ernie Hudson). Finding even average reference for an 80s movie is hard, had to fill in a lot of the detail myself..

Tim Burton

2009-06-06T17:36:00.000-07:00

This 8.5x11 piece was a commission for a birthday gift for a fan of Tim Burton. As usual its PrismaColor with a marker underbase. This image is a shot from my digital camera, and not scanned in as I normally do, so its not the best quality image.

True Blood Finished Drawing

2009-05-06T06:04:00.000-07:00

Here is the final True Blood piece. Picture quality is not so great.
