Title: To-Be-Announced.

This drawing is a composition for an upcoming illustration. Personal work, of course. Someday I'll have that commission. One more piece to add to the Weird Creatures Museum. 

Vampire Fish

I'm thinking about a series of Vampire Fish to add to my Weird Creatures Museum. 

Drawing of the day

This is another Uni-cat sketch for an upcoming 'Weird Creatures Museum' painting. 'Weird Creatures Museum' is a theme I came up with a few years ago. It started out as a portfolio theme, and I hope to turn it into an actual product line of prints, jigzaw puzzles, trading cards, face cards, stickers, etc....

Yesterday's Sketch

So. I was sitting in Church yesterday, and every time I look down at the carpet, I always see weird faces or weird characters in the patterns of the carpet. It's so weird how artists get inspired. Anyway, I was looking down at the carpet and saw this whole new world. This world consisted of all these weird animals with sort of angry expressions. Not sure how these popped in there during church, but whatever. The bad news about it is that I forgot most of those images halfway through the meeting, so by the time I could sketch in my book, this is what was left of it. If you are an artist, and have those moments of creators block, take a look at the floor in front of you. You might be surprised what images pop in your head. In some ways it's a better place to get ideas than staring up at the sky and finding shapes in the clouds.  And always, no matter what, have your sketchbook ready. 

All You Need Is Love

Hi There. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Years. I have to say 2011 was one of the best Christmases I've had in a long time. Anyway I don't believe in making new years resolutions because I never stick to them. Instead I believe in making goals anytime during the year, and hopefully stick to them. I do hope that 2012 will be the year that great things will start to happen. I will try to be a frequent blogger and continue to put my art out there, somehow. Here is my latest work of art. I don't really know what it means. It was just a fun concept and design that I came up with, and I was listening to my iPod the other day, and 'All You Need Is Love' by The Beatles was playing, so I figured it would be a fitting title for the piece. Anyway I hope all you artists out there are hoping for the best this year and not giving up hope. I'm sure life begins for all of us artists sometime.
