The Mad Doctor Swampmonster


This is my entry for this week's illustration friday- i haven't done one of these in a while. I was going to do something with alligators...but I kept sketching swamp monsters.  So here you have it - my entry for swamp.

New Personal Work


I've been working on some personal pieces, I'm still working out the technique. The two below are from the last couple of weeks.  The octopus was from a couple months ago.  This is supposed to be sketch blog...but  I haven't updated my main site in a couple of years wanted to give these guys a home. I'm revamping my portfolio - so I thought I'd share some of the stepping stones along that path.

March 3rd Sketch Binge

Here are yesterday's sketches from the doodlebook. I found some crovex- a discontinued drafting film, I aquired from my college roomate 7 years ago - I really like it as a drawing surface.  I can't think of a more relaxing way to have spent a Saturday.

February Doodlebook part 2

More February doodles. 2/18-2/27.


February Doodlebook part 1

I've been keeping a small 3.5x5 inch sketchbook around just to jot down ideas and mindlessly sketch.  Here's what I did between February 12th and 17th. I pre-toned a bunch of pages with gouache, and drew in colored pencil later.

Somewhere in Dreamland

Here's what I've drawn in the sketchbook in the last week or so - in no particular order.  I've been watching a lot of the 1930's cartoons particularly the Fleischer Out Of the Inkwell/Famous cartoons, and some of the Clampett Looney Tunes and Tex Avery shorts from the 40's. I suppose I shouldn't post this much all at once...whatever deal with it. :)





I really am sorry Steve Buscemi. Not that you're ever going to see this-you're a fantastic actor.

It Came From Facebook

Sometimes I post random illustrations for my Facebook friends and nowhere else. Here are some random illustrator pieces I've posted to the Facebook - and the full spaghetti monster from the test post.  I've got more sketches to share, but I'm lazy and haven't scanned them yet.
