Moleskine!

Small hiatus but I swear i'm back!

New job, new art, new awesomeness. But lets get down to business.

Some of you know Moleskine a while back that my friend Danny gave me. I've dedicated it to clowns and has since slowly been filling up with tiny clown drawings... 

I kind of stopped with the clowns, but mostly because I became so fixed on filling up this tiny book and wanting it to be filled with awesomeness and not just some tiny, half-assed doodles. I've since started working on this book again but in the mist of doing so, I felt stricken to this one Moleskine. i just bought most tiny pocket Moleskines to start new projects in. 

Mini Moleskines!!!

I've since started one for owls. I don't know why I had not done this already but it really had to be done. Took me a bit to think of a great way to start it out but I think the 1st drawing really set the mood for the book.

Owl hiding in a tree.

I will probably end up adding in some watercolors to this but for now you can get the idea.

Hopefully these will keep me inspired to want to draw more owls and more clowns. I have yet to come up with more concepts to fill the other books with but i'm thinking one might be dedicated to objects with faces since it's one of my favorite things as well.  but we will see.

Sad Caramel Apples

I have a thing for drawing objects with faces, especially sad faces. Here's some sad/droopy caramel apples.

Sad Cactus

Doesn't anybody want to give this poor guy a hug? I mean, they are free...

Century Machines

A close friend approached my girlfriend and I to do a cd sleeve for his band's new demo cd. I originally didn't know anything about this until 2 days before he needed these done but, he was looking for something handmade and a little different from just putting the CD into a plastic case or cardboard sleeve and making some quick cover work. Christine created these amazing sleeves with a nice cut at the bottom for the cd to go in.
I had not known much about what they were looking to do until the day before these showed up on my table and ready to be painted. Because it was last minute, Mike, my friend in the band, gave me a lot of freedom to come up with something that would be a quick stencil. I definitely didn't have time to create any multi layered stencils with only 2 days to create this on my free time.  All he really told me was make something that looks organic and goes a bit with the song "Wild Wind." This is what I came up with:

The Stencil, being cut down.

All of them had to be stenciled...

Filling in.

Me working hard on painting.

Drying on my floor.

Finished Product.

The pile of finished sleeves.

The used and abused stencil.

All in all, I think this turned out to be a success and they were pleased with the finished product and are thinking about turning this into a series so I'll be able to come up with some more and possibly better ideas for stencil pieces.

Sad Yoyoing Clown

Pen and ink sketch from my black book. Did this while I was in Florida for the World Yoyo contest. I was trying my friend some of the cool lines and such you could get from just using ink instead of having an array of pens. unfortunately the Higgins ink I was using some how ended up getting deluded down so some of my lines were more of a grey then a nice black.... also i spilled a couple drops of ink...

Here's a video from that weekend taken by Takeshi Kamisato.


good stuff from a good weekend.

a Self Portrait

Here's a self portrait. I love drawing with Ink. thinking I might need to color this in later.

Mr. Picklesworth

This is Mr. Picklesworth. His mustache shows just how dignified he is.

This was just to show off an idea I had while looking at a piece my friend did. I misinterpreted what i thought to be a cardboard frame, which ended up just being a frame bought from a thrift store and repainted. I'm working on a series of frames created from cardboard. this however is just a rough idea but i want to create some detailed and in-depth looking frames that possible represent victorian designs with just corrugated cardboard. We'll see how well this project turns out.
Watercolors, Brush Pens, cardboard border.

This past weekend, I ended up selling this awesome piece to some one while at 1st friday in Philadelphia. I was both happy and sad. I had this up on my wall for about a month and took it down friday to just see peoples reactions to it... i didn't think i'd end up actually selling him off to someone. But then again, i'm happy he's going to a good home as someones present.

Sad Clown Series: number 3 rough

This is a work in progress. I'm still messing around with pen and ink and always enjoy how the lines come out when using this  medium. I'm trying to think of how I would like to color this. It's mostly between watercolor and pastels. Even thinking about leaving this black and white since it looks so good already.
size is 11x17 and is based off of a couple sketches i did in my sketchbook and moleskin
(I have a mini moleskin that i'm just filling up with clowns).
hope you guys like this!

I will also be in Philadelphia this friday for first friday events as usual, selling off some more awesome pokemon art and such. That is if it doesn't rain all day.

I was never really on your side

I have a thing for Team Fortress. I spent hours playing this game most of which were spent playing as the spy. Here's an old sketch I did a while back of my favorite character.

Zombie

Was attempting to make a "cute" zombie since someone tried to tell me I couldn't... I guess she was right. but i'll try again later.

Owl in Love

This is based off of the Original Owl pen and ink i did a couple weeks back, My girlfriend really like the way it looked and her birthday was coming up so I decided to do a cute watercolor and ink drawing on a piece of bristol board i had laying around. Here is the end result. This piece has been completed for weeks though i'm posting it up so late because I wanted it to be a surprise for her. I feel like the background didn't turn out the way i'd have liked it but overall i'm still excited about how it turned out.

Newest in the Pokemon series

this is probably the last of the pokemon stencil series i'm probably going to do for a while. It's starting to feel like i'm beating a dead horse with all of the pokemon i have done this year. I'll probably make a couple more of these ones to sell but, going to lay off and focus on my watercoloring projects and pen and ink stuff. Enjoy the Jigglypuff. This one went to Andrea, my friend's wife, who has been asking for this for over a year. I finally sat down and worked on this about a week before her birthday. She was very excited when she got this and pretty much found a spot in their living room and hung it up right away.  Always happy with my art finds a good home.
