Merry Christmas!!

May your stockings and tummies be filled this Christmas! Enjoy!

Coming undone

This post and the previous were done in about an hour. A little test I've given myself...

Hatch

Nice and crunchy

Cup o' Moon

A quick drawing...

Birth of an idea

The man in the crowd...

Playing with ideas for posters. Either going to take a song title or lyric..

Both ends...

Tinkering with the site...

Redesigned my portfolio site using www.staceyapp.com. Still trying to figure out some HTML code...

Thanks to Josh Nichols for the major help!

A bit blurry...

I'm about as blind as a bat without my glasses. I can make out objects, but they are very blurry. Damn astigmatism!

My mom realized that I, at the age of 3, needed glass when she saw me with my face about an inch away from JCPenny's Christmas catalog...

Solving the health care crisis...

Ladybugus Fasteus

Turkey leg as thumb

First image that invaded my head this morning. I looked at my hand, and instantly I saw a turkey leg as my thumb...mmmmm...

Time for Sleep

Last hourglass drawing for a bit...maybe.

Let's agree to disagree

Breast cancer awareness

May those who are suffering from this terrible disease be blessed with strength and guidance, and may their families see brighter days ahead. You all are in our hearts and our prayers.

Frozen in time

I'll continue the hourglass motif...

Hate Speech

WMAV

"Everything...plus the kitchen sink"

My friend named my iPod "WMAV". So it stuck!

A quick icon I came up with last night.

Tree in South Dakota

Aviatophobia...

....the fear of flying.

Poor thing.

I did this piece a bit different. I'm still trying to figure out how to combine my line work with simple shapes. I love simplicity, but my pen tends to go wild. Any suggestions would be fantastic!

Male pattern...crop circles?

TV Violence

Tattoo

Here's my tattoo I got on Saturday. It's about 90% done. I'm going to go back in a few weeks to get a few more highlights and shading. It's on my left inner forearm...

Time for Wine...

USB

Not even close to my best, but I wanted to get it down on paper. I like the idea, and will push it further at some point.

Fork - 1HRS

Sketchopolis

Strong

Chicken Wrapped

I don't think this is what the Colonel had in mind...

(no chickens were harmed during the creation of this image)

A play on an earlier piece...

d is the new shape

I've noticed a trend where a man's physique resembles a lowercase "d". Or, facing the opposite direction, a lowercase "b".

Green idea

Modify

I really like the execution...Needs a little work, but I really like it nonetheless.

Leaves as fire....

Not sure what to call this one...hmmm...

Isthmus - Overture Center

Here's the latest commissioned piece that I completed for a local paper in Madison. I like it quite a bit.

Sorry for the crappy scan. Newsprint is difficult to scan in properly. At least it is for me.

Hey y'all! Part II

Just finished another commissioned piece. Hopefully this is a sign of good things to come.

I hope to post more images soon. I know I keep saying that, but I promise myself that I will.

Thanks for visiting!

****** UPDATE ******

If you happen to come to my blog via my main website, sorry for the inconvenience. I just noticed that the images are not uploading. I will fix the problem as soon as possible.

Hey y'all!

A quick update.

I just completed a commissioned piece, and have been studying quite a bit lately. I still draw everyday, and hope to post more images soon.

Thanks again for you support. It's greatly appreciated, even if I haven't posted much lately.

Doodle-b-1

Shaky deal

Long time no post.

Thank you all who have continued to visit even without new work. More to come!

Walking back...

to the hotel after a long day...

Lunch in NYC

Liberty Island

Takin' a bite...

Headin' out to meet Becky in NYC. First time to the Big Apple. Should be a blast!

Adapt

Cracked

Meltdown

Sketch of tree stump as person

A little sketch I, well, sketched up last night. I'll ink and color soon.

Not sure if I like the legs the way they are. I may extend them.

Twitter

HierARCHy

In order of importance, of course.

I will be taking a break for a bit from posting regularly on my blog. I am taking courses to learn certain programs that will allow me to pursue my Masters degree. I still intend on posting, but it won't be as much as I have in the past.

Updating and improving my illustration portfolio is still a priority, and I'll continue to create pieces of interest. My focus is now on the classes, and I have adopted the "quality, not quantity" motto when it comes to my illustrative/story telling work. Believe me, I draw everyday, so I may post some doodles, and will get ideas from said doodling. In fact, I have a few ideas I'd like to post soon that I came up with today.

Thank you for your support, and continued support. Hopefully I can keep you coming back with posts here and there.

See ya soon!

Apparently I don't know how to spell. "GatewaRy"? I'll fix it tonight!
