Hey! Where are all the posts?!...

I've been very consumed lately with a show I'm working on with my buddy Chris Schons for August! It's been a lot of work so far and it will be a lot more! I am incredibly excited about and can't wait to get the artists working on it. Check out the "Call for Artists" link on the Light Grey Art Lab blog. If I was more responsible I would have put this link up here waaayyyy earlier.

Sketches...

Few new sketchbook pages.



I think I was having a rough day when I was doodling these. Ha.


Magic...

Pokemon Battle Royale!!...

Wow!! The Pokemon Battle Royale Show was epic!! The gallery at Light Grey Art Lab was PACKED from 7 to 10. It was a fantastic turn out. Thank you to everyone who attended and put up with the crowds to see all of the truly incredible artwork. A shout out to some of my personal favs...on second thought I started typing them out but there were too many. Check them all out online. A ton of prints sold out at the show but for those of you who weren't able to attend, there are still some prints available online including my Charizard here.

I Choose y...Oh My GAWD!!!...

Hey everyone. I originally wasn't going to post this until the Pokemon Battle Royale show, but a lot of the other contributors were revealing their works and I got all excited to show mine ahead of time. Ha.
I was excited to get to do Charizard. Just this giant, bad ass fire breathing dragon thing that would never lose a fight. Then from what I saw of the cartoon they made his personality out to be this cocky asshole who would burn the crap out of Ash every chance he got. I tried to capture a little bit of that personality in this piece. I also loved playing around with the color on this one with the mixes of purples and greens instead of just making it orange. I hope you fans out there feel I did Charizard justice in this rendering and if you get the chance come to the show. It's going to be a huge amount of nerdy fun.

Keeping Organization Fun...

WHA?!?! I haven't posted in too long. I've been working on some arts that should be up super duper soon. In the mean time here's a goofy little thing. At work I have these huge binders of art that I have to keep organized by season/set date. I needed to make a label for my most recent set so here it is...in the theme of Metroid.

Sketches and stuff...

Playing around with gouache and brush pen.

Weekend Monster! 08...fail...

Well I don't always draw perfect the first time! So here was where WM! 08 was going, but it sort of crashed and burned at this point. I just didn't like the pose, color, ink work...pretty much everything. I still like the concept but I think I need to go another direction with it. This is not the final WM! 08 but I will post the failed first attempt. Hopefully the second attempt is super awesome.


The truck looks bad too. Ha.
