We had a good group of marks at the walmart this week. It was a lot of fun trying to catch them all. Although we did get busted. Which almost never happens. Luckily everyone seemed to really enjoy their sketches.

Old man and the Ice Cream
On October - 7 - 2011
This Joyful old soul was partaking in an icecream desert at Jason’s Deli last week. You can really see how excited he is about the sweet concoction.
This is not my best ever attempt at digital painting. Sometimes I forget how to do things, like paint in a computer.

Khaki man – Mall sketches
On September - 19 - 2011
This old guy was so adorable. We found him at the mall. I wanted to keep the colors quick, this was about 30 minutes. Playing with some new PS brushes my friend Brandon gave me. Definitely makes things quicker and smoother. I’m having a lot of fun with it.

Old Wolverine
On September - 8 - 2011
My Wife Amber and I are starting to do warm-up sketches together in the studio. Today’s theme was Old Wolverine. We may do a whole series of elderly super hero characters before moving on to something else. Check out Amber’s site to see her take on Old Wolverine.
I drew this with a much thinner pen than I’m used to, and it ended up looking like a Skottie Young drawing. I love his stuff! I decided to go ahead and experiment with adding textures and muted colors to go all out with it. I think he turned out alright.

Olderly People
On March - 11 - 2010
I love sketching Old Dudes. Its no secret. Especially living in West Texas where Old Dudes are in and of themselves work of art for the caricature artist. I was out at the Market Street last night with Amber sketching people, and the Olderly’s were out in full force. This guy was one of my favorites. I decided to paint him in Photoshop. I want to do a whole scene of these guys. But I still have lots of other work to be doing. Maybe one of these days I’ll do a book of ‘em.

Old man sketch
On June - 11 - 2009
Today was a little rough getting going. It was starting to feel like a Monday so I got in my truck and left town to get recharged. I drove out into the country and stopped at a restaurant in Littlefield to do my work for the day. To get the creativity flowing I did this warm up sketch of a little old man I walked past on the way in. Old men are so much fun to draw.
I still have some work to do before bed. But I want to keep up as best I can with this sketch a day thing. I appreciate everyone stopping by to check out my art.
