Lost at Sea

I did this in one day all digitally. The line work is a bit sloppy in places and the composition is pretty odd, but I had a lot of fun with the colors in this one. I'm trying to get away from "obvious" hues. The story begins!

The Boy, the Tree, and the Sea

I've been saying I want to create a children's story, but I could never fully flesh out the story I wanted to tell. As a result the project never got off of the ground. To get things jump started I decided to just start drawing and see what comes out. Hopefully if I do enough of these I'll come up with something good. Until then, this is what I got =P

Ninja with glowing eyes, so original!

I painted this a while back when I was in a group drawing club with my friends. Unfortunately I couldn't keep up with the assignments and I had to drop out. The topic for this drawing project was "Stealth". I guess the image is pretty trite, but I'm happy with the way it turned out.

Baby it's cold outside

This guy was done from scratch on the computer. I was finally able to do the initial sketch digitally. It started out pretty ho-hum in the beginning but once I got the idea for the eyes melting the snow, I really started to like how it was looking. I also wanted to do a drawing that had a hint of a story rather than just having a random/strange image. One of my goals is to do a children's story and I think this is look that I'm shooting for.


This week you can click on the image for a larger view. I will probably switch to this format since the small images don't really show too much detail.


I've also posted an animated gif of progression of this drawing Click here to view
