Penn

This dude's been in my mind for about 5 years now, and it's great to finally have the ability to paint him full-body.

Out of the many photos I took on my roadtrip I picked out a few for speedpainting...here's my first.  I'd like to achieve a point where I can paint quickly but effectively without it looking so silly up close like this one

Some stuff

Illustration for The Bane of Yoto, an awesome scifi novel and 3D Comic!

Also Pacific Rim fanart... dasvidaniya kaiju mofos

A ton of other work

Well, I guess I HAVE been pretty busy over summer!

Bill Perkins workshop

Had the privilege of studying under Disney illustrator Bill Perkins for the last two days.  It was a great experience, so much information.  I learned a ton, including how to use oils for the first time.  These are from a live model, 20 minutes for blocking and 20 minutes for breakdown. These go chronologically so I hope the comfort level with the medium/process shows.

Speedpaint #2

~1 Hour

Speedpaint #1

Every day this summer I'll be doing a digital speedpaint or traditional plein air! Not all of them will be posted I don't think, but I'll get as many as possible up here. This one was about 1.5 hrs.

ANI 113B Final

My final for my forest painting class, Bunny allowed me to go in a bit of a different direction.  I'm not entirely satisfied but it still feels like an accomplishment in itself!

It's been awhile...

I've been so active on DeviantART that I almost forgot I had a blog.  Sorry, guys! If you want to see all of what I've been up to, go ahead and head over to my DA, but I'll post a short version of my goings-on since October.  I began taking commissions on DA and it's been a great experience.  I've also made it through a semester of my forest painting class and a lot of personal work outside of class.  And I've also recently launched a full website. Enjoy!
