Jus' sketchin'


Some recent sketchin' I did trying to come up with some ideas for Art Jumble. The bonus was I got to listen to some friends harp on the art and comic industry for a bit. No matter who you are, some days you just see some guy making it, getting a slap on the back from the good fortune fairy and you can't help but ask, "Why him?"
We can't help it, it's just human nature. You can be happy for said individuals 364 days of the year, but there's that ONE day when you read or hear of someone's success be it a promotion, some awesome painting they did, book deal, or even movie deal, and you think," Holy F ! I hate that guy!".....and then you hit the art table for another night thinking, if you're lucky, somebody might be hating on you one day...:)

Eddie Lives again!

Iron Maiden is coming to Phx. Not only are they coming, they are re-doing the set from their Powerslave tour. I saw this show when I was 15 or 16 and it made me a fan for life. I was actually moved to goosebumps when they reached the epic hightlight of Rhyme of The Ancient Mariner...it was that bad-ass. In fact, it was so bad-ass I've been rather disappointed they never replayed it in any concert I've seen since....till now.....

And yes, you can see the fancy shmancy ad I've got over here for our book . It's called Cake and you should order one....really..... that's all the pimpin' I'm going to do for now.

Whew! busy weekend..


another sketch page I did this weekend....

Canary and WW, inspired by J. Bone...


...wow , that sounded weird! Well, J. Bone is an artist and he recently did a story in the back of Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier Special. All around goodness in this issue and a nice companion to one the best DC stories I've read in years. J. Bone was Cooke's inker in the original series and they had him pencil the WW story. After seeing said pencils I hope they get this guy to do more. Great fun cartooning and style. Anyway, I just had to draw something after reading his story, ended up with a quasi Bruce Timm/Cooke thing with nowhere the fun that they usually put in their stuff.....oh well....just keep drawing, I guess....

More of red and some sketches



Some more sketches I did for the Red Riding Hood thread. I was thinking the guns; etc, would be different and the first post on Art Jumble had a Red with guns.....yeah, I'm an unoriginal bastard, what can I say. The other is just some sketchin' I did over the weekend...

Red Riding roughs


Some ideas I had for an Art Jumble.....probably won't go much further than these....until I put out a "Chicks With Swords" book.....C'mon, the title pretty much sells itself!

Sketchin'!

Finally got to go sketchin' with some friends. Nice to actually sit down and draw stuff....
