I hope my face looks chewed up and spit out as an old person. Don't you?

Ahnold

This is from memory. Had to draw him after talking about all 27 of his freakin' movies on the geekcast. sheesh.

My Heroes.

Growing up I was obsessed with The Mario Bros. as were a bazillion kids who grew up in the late eighties/early nineties.

These guys had so much appeal to me because they really reminded me of my dad and my uncle. But are mustachioed and both are awesome.

Some of the first drawings where I actually tried to pay attention to the characters design was of Mario. I can still remember the clear thinking of noticing that drawing mario as a stick figure wasn't cutting it. Haha.

Ultra Battle 2009

It's 2009. I should say something poignant.

New years resolutions blow. They're are stupid because no one decides at the beginning of the year that they're going to stick to one or two goals set at improving oneself.

No sir, people are trying hard everyday to be the best they can. I know I'm trying and I know most of my buddies are.

So screw new years resolutions and their phony attempt to simplify our crazy lives.

Besides I always have the same set of resolutions...one of them is to draw more. Saying I'm going to do that at the beginning of the year is silly.

The only way to grow is to push myself into fearful situations.

So here's to craziness and throwing yourself into the heat of creative turmoil. Cheers!

Ugh.

A kid, his raygun, and his T-rex.

Clean up for a painting I'll be working on shortly. Will be painted with guache.

Veidt Sport, To Win is Divine

Hey everyone,
Things have been busy. Besides the monsters book, I've been working with 4 of my buddies (Justin Lawrence, Sarah Wickliffe, Andrew Roberts, and David Pagano,) to create a mock 80's commercial for the Watchmen Movie.

It's a contest and the grand prize is getting a spot on one of the background Tv's in the Watchmen movie.

It's a sneaker ad and the music was made courtesy of Paul Wickliffe of http://www.skylinepro.com/

Check it out here, then find it on youtube and go rate it and say something nice!

50's Rocker

This is an old pic. I've been loving painting in guache and now that I just finished a book of monster illustrations, I think I might make the focus of my next set of illustrations musicians and music. I guess this and the Blues bot will be the start of that.

And just in case you don't know about my monster book....announcement coming next week about it with more details.

Anybody want to go to some jazz clubs with me?

Mo' Shapes.

My friends.....are incredible.

My Ipod and Nintendo DS were stolen.

So one day when I had to work through lunch and I was really pissed off, a bunch of my friends, the friends you see in the cartoon above got together and bought me a new ds.

They are great friends, and I am touched.
