Battle at Saloon No. 9

This is a second painting in my cowboy series, a sort of hard broiled detective story meets the wild west meets illustration. Here our late hero is seen, whilst alive, in the midst of a rather taxing bar brawl. Trying to keep to similar visual clues: singularity of image, the buzzard motif, and of course our main man. He looks alot more like me in this one, since the face is relatively sans distortion this time around. Any crits before i move to paint would be nice, though i'll be honest, these paintings are more the do and done type, so comment quick before i really screw the pooch. haha.


And yeah, this one is as huge as my first.

King Lear

So here's my playbill for Styles. I had fun with it. Even if for some reason they look like they're wearing cocktail dresses (Mahan). Below is the inkwash I did for the middle sister.

[shy shouldn't touch colour :D]

hmmmm so. the balance of the red. it's a bit overwhelming the main focus, but when i tried to put a little bit of red behind the figures [striped pillows n such] it got really cluttered and hard to read x.x suggestions?



ps-- the drawing isn't done either, there's still a few things to finish like the foot and arm, etc.

Quickie

A LIttle Somethin From Break

Finally had the time to finish this thing. Got it started right at the end of break. Surprisingly it went pretty quick, so I plan on doing a handful of these things, just similar enough to be a collection. I don't want them to be to similar or ill get bored. haha.

Twelfth Night

Been awhile since I've posted, but I plan on updating so here's a start while my laptop is out of commission. This is a program cover for a Twelfth Night theatre performance for Styles and Concepts.

Blade Runner + Fifth Element = Awesome

Something for Design. I totally missed the point, but said fuck it and kept going. Anyways, I'd like to get some feedback on it. And you people are good at that.

EDIT- For some reasons Blogger wont let me comment, BUt.... Thanks for the crits guys. The strawberry power trails are gone, and I'm gonna define the vehicles a littler better

T-Shirt Designs

Just some designs I vectorized for some T-Shirts. They might end up with background colors but I'm just worried about the designs as of right now. Let me know what you think thanx :D.

Screwing Around

Just got a craving to paint tonight, any crits?

Made some changes, new one is bigger.

These males are single... ladies.

Well. I got a bunch of portraits here. Just to kind of post something. It's been a pretty long time since I have. I'm pretty dang burnt out on doing males. Also, I've gotten a rare itch to do something with more background than character. I hope I can do something with it.

Got some stuff, if you've popped over to my blog, you've seen. Just kind of picked my favorites. Stuff from black and white, styles, sketch-a-days, and sketch-to-death. 

Small note: I've been entirely lazy about getting out invites. I've been putting it off for months. Sorry if I've told you I'm going to send you one, and haven't. 

A Bird and Stuff

I had a conversation with Mike about getting into prints to sell, so I thought I would try something that would maybe sell. There wasn't any kind of planning involved with this, which is odd for me. But you know, just trying something new.
