Work in progress. In the final stages of clean-up, scanning and lettering.

The New Book

I am hard at work still on the latest Lil Dude book. It is a christmas book and I unfortunately was not able o get it done in ti,me for christmas seeing as it has just passed. But, I am still going to get it done. And I will still show it to whoever will look. here is a half of a page, no words, no gray scaling, it is in the rough lineart scanned version. But I have been dying to show something from what I have been working on.

My contest Entry

One of the websites I frequent is the parka blogs. It is a blog that is dedicated to posting reviews and images of art books that come out for movies, specific artists, etc. If you know anything about artists and illustrators, you know we loooove art books like the art of How To Train Your Dragon, or the Art of Toy Story, etc. Well I love the site. Anyways, they had an art contest in honor of the christmas holidays. The theme was Kung Fu Santa. So I was dying to win an art book of my choice, which was the prize, but I did not win. I put everything into my little image, but hey, those are the breaks. Luckily, the site posted all of the entries. My name is listed under mine. There are some really creative entries.

I beat a video game!!!! Yay

I get to play games like 5 times a year nowadays it seems like. Well twoo weeks ago I had a couple of free hours. (Well I had a couple hours where the rest of the family was sleep and I didn't feel like doing anything constructive) and I beat God of War 2! I know right, the games years old but its a big deal to me! It only took me about a year and a half! I love the game and the design. I just love that mythology stuff. Inspired this quick sketch in regular ol' ballpoint pen.
