I started using a brown paper sketchbook this week for the first time. It’s also been ages since I used Prisma markers. Its refreshing switching it up.
By the way, I made a video flip-through of my last sketchbook! Check it out…

Sketching people in Lubbock
On May - 17 - 2012
Tweetup!
On January - 6 - 2012
I will be in Dallas this weekend, for a bit of an inspirational respite/sabbatical. If you are a fan of Super Zeroes, or a webcomic artist in the DFW area, I would love to meet you. There will be two opportunities this weekend, hopefully you can make it out to at least one!
I’m getting a group of webcomics people together Saturday at Chipotle on 75 and Forest Lane in Dallas. We’ll be there from 7-10 probably. And Sunday night from 6:30-9:30 I’ll be at the Drink and Draw at the Flying Saucer. You can find more info for that on the drink and draw site HERE! I hope to see lots of awesome people this weekend. Hopefully you’ll be one of them!

Lubbock Comic Book Expo 4!!!
On March - 16 - 2011
Visit www.Lubbockcomics.com for more information Or check out our event on Facebook!!!
I can’t believe this is our 4th year doing this show! When we started this in 2008 there had never really been a strong comic book convention in this region, and we didn’t think it would last. But fans come from all around, and we’ve seen more and more attendees each year, and this year, we have more creators coming from out of town than ever before. I’m very excited about this show, especially since after last year, I wasn’t sure we’d get to have another one.
I hope that anyone checking this out, that lives close enough to drive, will come out and say Hi! I will be there with nearly everyone else from the Robot Cowboy studio! It’s going to be a great show!

I don’t know what these are. I can’t tell if they’re cute or creepy either. It’s just what I was in the mood to draw at the sketchnight tonight. They oddly remind me of my friend Nate Bramble’s art style, only completely different. Check out his comic if you get a chance. Great stuff!

UFO – digital sketch
On December - 23 - 2009
Several of my friends from the Lubbock Sketch Club and from around town got together and pitched in to buy me a new drawing tablet to replace my old one that has been hurting my feelings for nigh on two years now. It was a complete surprise and a real blessing. Its a new Wacom Intuos 4 tablet. My old one was a 3. I didn’t even know they had 4′s out yet. Its pretty awesome, with a lot more short cut buttons and a touch ring that works as both a zoom, and can toggle through several other convenient options. Its really amazing.
Its been kind of rough month. But all of a sudden, I’m with a new laptop, with all new adobe suite, and a new drawing tablet. I’m really looking forward to diving 2010!
So this is my first official digital sketch with the new tablet. Amber is really into UFO’s and aliens right now, so I guess this drawing came out of that somehow. I think he’s cute. This was about an hour in Photoshop.
I hope everyone has a wonderful, blessed Christmas and New Years. Keep smiling!

"Show me some of that Spanish dancing…"
On August - 13 - 2009
Figure Drawing Group last night was good. My friend Jenn was the model, dressed as a Flamenco dancer. I wanted to keep the art loose so I grabbed my jar of dirty ink water and used it to do washes. I forgot my blow-dryer though so the washes weren’t as graceful as I would like. It was still fun to do. My thanks to Robert who’s running the figure drawing group now for keeping things interesting and keeping it going. Its much appreciated.

Figure Drawing
On July - 14 - 2009
I got to hang out at the figure drawing group picnic this weekend. It was good brisket and brownies, and great company. We had our model Casey pose for us outside for a change. Clothed of course, don’t want to get the neighbors talking. It was fun. I always rush when I do figure drawing for some reason. I guess because I haven’t been in the routine of it for so long that I don’t feel comfortable like I used to. So I did this quick gray wash sketch and hung out the rest of the time. I think it turned out alright.

Restaurant Patio
On July - 10 - 2009
I ate at Fuzzy’s Fish Tacos a couple weeks ago. It’s pretty good. And no the tacos were not Fuzzy. They were however delicious. I was sitting on the patio sketching, and I’ve been trying to do a lot more sketches of places, instead of trying to make it up out of my head. Turns out its easier when you have real reference to draw from… so to speak. I added some watercolor to the sketch tonight to give it depth. Not my best, but how would we know I’m getting better if I didn’t put the %$#@ up here first.
