critters

Some commission work I've been doing for a client which is getting me to help build a website of mythological critters. This is a smattering of the work I've done, a pheonix, the Teumesian Fox and a hypocampus. Fun!

Alien-ated



Here is an illo of some characters I've been animating this past month. With a real 'take me to your leader' attitude they were quite fun to work with :D

And yes....finally a post ;)

Man and Markers


I went to Live Essence Life Drawing Saturday morning for the first time with a friend, and I really enjoyed it. I think I'm going to start making a habit of it!! Anyway, this isn't very "mixed media".. but it's pencil and brush pens (which I'm hoping counts) So there's my monthly challenge submission :P

work in progress.

Faces


A few practice sketches with facial expressions.

Another Panel

And it's another silent comic panel from the book I'm working on. Yadda yadda back yard yadda yadda backgrounds. I've probably gone too detailed with the colouring already to ever hope to finish this.

Painting test..

First of all I'd like to say WOW Monique, the banner looks amazing!!!!
And I know it's not mixed media, but I figured I'd post this anyway, since I don't really have anything else to show..

Blood, Sweat and Tears!

Here is a banner we can use for our blog! Yay!!! I tried uploading it directly but I can't remember the password. Chad probably went and changed it on me!

I hope everyone likes it! I did a ton of trial and error but I'm pretty happy with the outcome! And I think I've become strictly a Flash artist now... I tried doing this in Photoshop and it kicked my a$$! Haha!

This entry should really be called "Blood, Sweat, Tears, Coffee, Tea, Wine, Coolers, Coke, OJ and a hella lot of Cough Syrup!" But I think it was all worth it! :P


Please crit and let me know what you all think!!!

p.s. It's such an enormous image because I couldn't bear to lose the quality from the vector version! I wish we could upload swfs!

Ho Ho Ho

Gone Fishing




Inspired by a chris sanders work. I'm a hack.

Cardboard isn't just for Hobos!

Hey Everyone,
Thought I'd post up some doodles I recently did on scraps of cardboard.
Always fun playing with different mediums!

Whimper at the mighty Wimple.

I really wanted to draw a wimple. Really beyond all reason. "Someday" I'll "finish" this with something "other" than a hack flash colouring job.



Really. Beyond all reason.

Widescreen Panel


Basically lately I've been just been spending all my spare time working on a book, and this is a shot taken from it. Movie-trailer style, with the 'sound' removed.

I never should have started doing more than monotone colours for the background. I'm regretting that workload already.

Vegetarian Wolf




small side painting done between a larger one. For fun, the sketch, you can see how less ambitious I get when I actually start painting and start cutting stuff out.
