just needed to host an image, not mine.

Bridgman anatomy studies

little ways still to go

this or that? now i'm thinking the image is just so saturated that its going to be an eyesore even though the costume was nearly as saturated green as this in the photo. im leaning towards the monochrome.

still at it

uuuuupdate

still have a long ways to go but i like the direction its going in. the feet look a little wonky.

banned bears

a work in progress.

dubasaur - WIP

pattern goodness

i forgot how much fun making patterns can be, even simple ones.

reworked a few pieces

fixed a few things that were bothering me, new work soon to come.

reworked and submitted

Trying my luck at t-shirt design. Not your typical design but we'll see...

I had to enlarge the canvas slightly and finish off the nest so it wouldn't look too awkward cropped like it was.

I'm on a road shaped like a figure 8

Work in progress. I'm going to start to record process shots more often from now on (hopefully).

Bloody Murder

As finished as I'll get for this one since the contest deadline is in a few hours. So many great pieces posted so far. I don't have a chance in hell in winning but it was still fun and great practice.

update

Still have a ways to go but I don't have much time left. This is going to be my entry for the newborn contest @ conceptart.org. The deadline is the 31st! <(@.@)>!

In Progress

so far...

I still have a long ways to go but here's where I'm at.

more practice

I'll work this into an illustration somehow but here's what I've got so far.

Portrait practice

<3 dinosaurs

Playing around with some new brushes.

finished for now

ninja ninja!

I've been on a ninja/samurai kick, I don't know what to say...

Small deaths are the saddest - WIP

Art night RIP

Some stuff from last year.

Sorry I haven't updated in a long time, life's been crazy. Here's some older pieces that I didn't get around to post yet. More to come that are in the works...

WIP - not too happy with it, probably going to start over.

Jellyfish Lovin

Here's a new sketch I'm excited to start working on so expect some progress updates soon.

Reworked

This piece was actually done over last summer but I just added the background and changed around the composition today.

Bridgman anatomy studies

Learning anatomy will always be an ongoing process for me. Without reference drawing the figure can sometimes be a struggle. Of coarse I'd much rather work from a real model but I don't have too many friends willing to pose for me so I guess I'll have to make do. My goal in doing these studies is to eventually be able to draw figures from my head with more confidence and a little less guess work as to where particular muscles are attached. These are all from Bridgman's "Life Drawing" book, I have 4 other of his books and hope to study them all eventually. For the most part I'm just trying to get the gesture and proportions correctly although its hard to resist trying to imitate his amazing line work as well.

Some older sketches...

Here's a few older sketches I have as well as an Andrew Jones inspired experiment that got a little out of hand

Here's my stab at an art blog I hope to keep updated frequently. Feel free to leave a comment or shoot me an email, if you have any feedback it would be greatly appreciated as I'm always looking to improve.
