Biker Tattoo

It’s been a while since I did an actual illustration (been a while since I had time!) But I finally wrapped up all of my 2011 projects just in time for the new year. What a relief!

I started this last night, and finished it up today. That makes it officially my first drawing of 2012. Hopefully this year will be as blessed as last year.

This painting will be at the Intersections: Art and the Body art show this Friday from 6 – 9. I’m putting it up for sale for $250. Email me if you’re interested.

The painting is watercolor, pen and airbrush on 12×8 bristol board.

Dead@17 Sketch cards

I was asked a while back to do some sketch cards for the new Dead@17 card set. This is my first time doing sketch cards, so it was fun and interesting. I’d like to do some more down the road.

Most of the cards I did were done like these with watercolor, pen and ink, white out and a little airbrush.

Aliens Vs Predator – Peanuts

This is an old drawing from me that I ran across on my harddrive. From 2004 when I first started working with water color. Aliens Vs Predator if drawn by Charles Schultz. Classic!

"Show me some of that Spanish dancing…"

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.

Iron Maiden – Eddie!

A friend of mine commissioned a painting of “Eddie” the trooper of Iron Maiden fame, for his wife Paige, another good friend of mine. I think she liked it. This was a pen and ink drawing done with watercolor washes and a little bit of airbrush. This is about actual size.

Figure Drawing

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.

Alien Bee-hive Babe!

No, I don’t know what’s going on with her hair, so stop asking! When I drew this I was trying to let my mind wander. Apparently it wandered back to the hairstyles of the sixties… or whatever my subconscious seems to think that looks like. By the time my mind came back to the drawing board there was no room left for other aspects that should go into a drawing… like arms, or a body or a personality of any type. So in the end, I decide to slap on some blue, and spackle some white, and go a little mindless with the painting as well. Fun – but I’m certain I was supposed to be doing something more productive instead.

Restaurant Patio

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.
