New Squidoo Lens

I decided to make a Squidoo lens to keep up with the times. :) This lens focuses on becoming a professional artist and promoting artists that are trying to make a living. I will be featuring art prints and products as well as good resources and I have a new blog to add tips and techniques about all things art. So go check it out:

Haven't Posted in a bit.

I decided to show you guys what I was working on recently. It was a couple of characters for a cartoon show concept. These guys were the rejects, but they are cute so I decided to put them up here. Sorry you can't see how the characters turned out, but if it ends up on TV then I'll tell you where to check them out.

Mostly been working on the web design side of things so I haven't had much time to draw anything fun. By the end of the week though, I should have time to draw lots of cool stuff.

Well, its kinda like a cross between a dinosaur and a warthog? I was trying to stray a bit outside my comfort zone and that came out.

What have they DONE to you???

Well this isn't a completed piece yet but it was so funny I decided to toss the sketch up here. I've had terrible insomnia lately and been at the computer most of the night. So here I am staying up late and watching TV and I thought about those little mouse covers people put on their mice. Who uses those?? Well, there's a reason why you shouldn't.

Cow-thing...

Okay...so uh...yeah. Well I was fooling around in Photoshop and was like hmm...I need to brush up on my painting techniques. I've been working so much in vectors lately that I thought I'd stretch my other artistic muscles. I honestly had no idea what I was drawing, this was not a planned piece. I more or less grabbed some colors, through them on the canvas and squished them around til it looked like something. *shrug* He's kinda cute though, I'm gonna keep him and name him Herb.

Hare-Trigger!

Deer sketch clean up

I thought I'd try outlining in Illustrator and touching up with Photoshop and adding a quick background. I think it turned out relatively well. I would have replaced the old one but I decided I still liked the sketch style and decided to leave it up. Coming soon: My version of the white rabbit. :)
