Caricature Posting

Masi Oka - Hiro on the Tv show 'Heroes'
Paris HiltonGeorge W. Bush
Steven Colbert
The Rock

I made these a couple weeks ago and I finally got around to posting them

Steven Spielberg

I decided I am going to try and do a daily caricature or portrait of someone, here is todays, let me know if it actually looks like Steven or not, it's okay to be honest I am trying to get better.

Nellie and Fairy from "Christmas Every Day"

Penster and the Magic Moonboots

I made this for a church event with the singles group back in the summer of 2005. It was called "The Mormies". It was for who every wanted to sumbit a short film. I tried to find someone at church who wanted to make a short film with me and no one was interested and so I created an animation. I also happened to win best in animation which is funny of course since I was the only one to have an animated short.

Raechal

This is another part of my on going series of drawing pictures of my friends this time of Raechal who I work with.

Lily Allen and Dwight from "The Office"

Quick sketch of George Clooney

I found this picture of George Clooney I liked so I drew it.

Genna

Here is another facebook illustration that I finally completed. I meant to get an illustration done for Genna back for her birthday back in May but I never thought what I was going do would be cool enough, tonight I thought I would see what I could do really quick, I'd say it turned out pretty good.

caricature artist

This past weekend I was a caricature artist for a company party for TAHITIAN NONI. I was one of six artists and we drew people for four hours, it was actually quite fun even though I was nervous at first. The cool thing was that I totally got in the zone and found myself discovering new ways of approaching my drawings that I hadn't thought of before. It helped that I was sitting next to this girl who had a really cool style and so I was able to look at how she approached the drawings and I was able to learn from her.

Runner

I like drawing people running, I'm not really sure why, maybe it's because I like to run.

Practice

I bought this book called 'Facial Expressions' which is full of people making faces, here are a couple quick sketches and my attempts at color marker which I haven't used in years and years. The bottom two sketches look like they should be saying "Gosh!"

Ethan and his dino

Ethan and his down syndrome dinosaur.

The Perspective dream

(click on comic to make it bigger)

Okay, this comic about this dream I had probably won't make sense to anyone who reads this except Alicia and Melanie. I could give an explaination but I really don't feel like it so if you want to know, ask me and I will tell you.

Amber the fairy

I was reading about fairies the other day and I learned that they are the keepers of the earth, they encourage us and delight in us being in harmony with the earth and all living creatures. When I was reading the book I kept thinking about my friend Amber because she is a vegitarian and does more than most people I know in making the earth a better place to live and so I made a picture of her as a fairy.

Unicorn promise

I helped make this in college, the animation is a bit getto but hey I think it's good for the two weeks we spent on it.

Cat and UFO

I saw art in the graphic novel "Jimmy Corrigan" that I really liked and so I sort of copied the background and wanted something to be in the forground and that is where the cat and the ufo come from.

Rocker Mike

Here is the drawing for Mike of him as a 80's rocker. I think the hardest part of this one was figuring out what to draw him as.

Warrior Princess

I made this picture for some friends of mine Sarah and Sarah. They are suppose to be Warrior Princesses and so of course I used Xena as a reference.

Multicolored Mullet

I.F. I spy

I spy a man who can talk to animals but is getting a little tired of it.

some guy

I looked in the mirror and some guy was staring back at me, I drew him.

Paris eating Chris

This is my friend Chris and he took a picture in a green room and this is what I did to his photo.

23 minmax

I thought I would post all the entries from my 23 minmax blog that I like so far ( and that I haven't posted here yet.

Hannah Wonders

I made this for my friend Hannah who happened to see the two pictures I made of Dane. I made this picture and when I would show people they would say, it doesn't really look like she is doing something Wonder Woman would do and I would say, well that's the point. Anyway I gave it the title 'Hannah wonders' and it suddenly dawned on me that she does look contemplative over something, like she is wondering. So Hannah is wondering over something deep, she really is Wonder Woman. Hilarious

Red

So for this week's illustration friday I was trying to come up with something for the subject "red" and this popped into my head, it's pretty close to what I saw.

Dane my vampire roommate

Regina Spektor

My friend Matt and I have been doing this blog 23minmax.blogspot.com (you can find it on my profile as well) The rules are simple, create a sketch in 23 minutes and then post it. Well I did this one of Regina Spektor and posted a uncolored version of this. I then shaded it and liked how it turned out and I am posting it here.

11 ears and pink rain

This is just a sketch I did today and I thought it was cool so I colored it. For some reason it is raining pick and I can't say why, it just is

random sketches

I just thought I would post a couple sketches

Mask

Illustration Friday - Mask

Kids Menu

I just did this piece as part of a kids menu at a pizza place called Brickoven. It's the first one in a series I am to do.

I like Squirrels!!!!

I was inspired by this blog I saw by Elizabeth Siegel http://esillustration.blogspot.com/ She has a really cool style and is obsessed with squirrels. A couple years ago I was fasinated by squirrels as well and included them in my comic strips for awhile. I haven't drawn one for quite some time and so I did up this little thing.

Illustration Friday- smoke

I made this awhile ago for an assignment in an illustration class but I figured it fit for this weeks subject of smoke.

Illustration Friday- Wind

I had alot of fun playing around with the textures on this one.

Illustration Friday-Ghost
I was thinking about how the symbol for a ghost is this white rounded blob that kind of has a human form (like Casper the friendly ghost) and how a large amount of the postings on the I.F. site used that symbol. This is my attempt to make fun of that a bit.

Illustration Friday- Smitten


















I found this website called http://www.illustrationfriday.com from my friend Mike Laughead, basically they give a random word and each person makes an illustration by Friday. Anyways here is my first one.

I feel like I got Nellies look down a little bit more to what I want, now to put her in flash and animate her, that and develope the other characters as well
