Here is the advert for recruiting volunteers for Urban Renewal. There are more to come. Tell me what you think. And if you're thinking Shepherd Fairey or Banksy, well...It's kinda supposed to make you think that, but it will get more Gangster soon so fear not. It's all a tribute to Urban Art

Here is something that I have been wanting to post for a while and finally got around to scanning (thanks Jason). It is probably the first drawing I had done in a long time that I really liked. So here it is, I hope you like it too.

Here are some portraits of friends of mine that I did recently.

I did some other ones, but I think that these ones turned out the best.

2009-09-14T10:36:00.000-07:00

A sketch for the back of a business card

Spawn.

So, It has been a while, I apologize for that, it isn't that I haven't been drawing, it's that I haven't gotten down the the Library to post, but here is some new stuff, hope you like it.

one old and one new

2009-03-23T22:06:00.001-07:00

Here is the latest drawing of Wendell Burgen. I finally got a good perspective on him. It needs a little more work, but I am satisfied with it for now.

I did this piece my sophmore year of highschool, I entered it into a show and got 2nd place because I couldn't get first cause he is smoking (I am not bitter though), and 1st place for 'people's choice.' I still think it is pretty good. It is pencil and charcoal and about 6x8 on Bristol Paper.

Jericho is the bomb. He kills demons.

2009-02-06T13:44:00.000-08:00

Here is a character I am working on named Wendell Bergen, He is a swiss born Ogre and adventurer. Hopefully I will get some panals going pretty soon.

Here is a one page comic that actually will not be continued, but I thought it was pretty alright.

2009-01-26T20:26:00.000-08:00

So, here is what I did in class today, Sharpies and

Adobe illustrator are the makin' tools.

2009-01-20T10:44:00.000-08:00

I am working on new name tags for my floor

at school, and here is one of them, it isn't colored

yet, but it will be before it is on the wall.

2009-01-20T10:42:00.000-08:00

So here is some brush work, not very good, but acceptable.

I am trying to get better with just using the brush and nothing else,

and this is some of my progress.

2009-01-20T10:39:00.000-08:00

So, Jack Bauer is the key to getting the cure for cancer

because he makes Chuck Norris Cry.

2009-01-12T16:22:00.000-08:00

I didn't trust him, his eyes were too close together.

2009-01-01T12:37:00.000-08:00

Here is the revamped design, I know the opacity is a little off, but I am mostly playing with the colors right now, so let me know what you think.

2008-12-30T22:30:00.000-08:00

Here is a new design I am working on to submit to threadless.

I like it, and you should tell me what you think :) be critical please.

Merry Christmas

This kid had the coolest face to ever emerge from the 1800's.

so I drew him with a little different background than I found him,

but I think it's crazy that a kid as small as him could work such crazy Yobs.

The Outlaw:

Sharpie on 7x5.5 inches

Yes, this is what I do in Theology 2. I'll bet that you thought I spent my time thinking about deep theological stuff (which I do), but really I just draw all day (which I don't, just part of it), and I never do homework. Ever. (Not really actually, I do a lot of Homework.) Well, now you know the truth, and you will never think of me the same (Well you probably already knew that I draw a lot because you are looking at my art blog, and you probably wont look at me any differently than you did before, but I just though that I should say that for dramatic affect.)

Who doesn't love a Panda at a diner?

This short comic is about a real person that I met, he was in the Red Army starting at age 12, he started fighting at the Battle of Stalingrad at age 14. It is very loosely based on something he said.

I love coffee, I hope you love coffee, and if you don't like coffee, well, that is just tragic. because it's what's for dinner.

Some new stuff.

2008-10-20T18:48:00.000-07:00

Here is some new stuff that I have been working on lately, the first here is a design for the Biola College Republicans.

And here is a drawing of the Frightful Forest.

Here is a design for a shirt that I have been working on, I think it may finally be near completion.

2008-10-01T15:50:00.000-07:00

I did this piece for a show that my friend is curating for an art class. The theme is shelter, and I began to think of Luke 12 which I had been reading earlier in the week, and how many people struggle to reconcile their concepts of a sovereign God, and a fallen world.

2008-09-24T19:45:00.000-07:00

I was reading A Mother Cries At Midnight from Odd Jobs, and I the imagery really inspired me, so while listening to a lecture on Rabbinic Judaism, I sketched this out.

"And I wondered, inn the unguarded moment, who would mourn for me?

From deep in the woods, I heard La Llorona let loose her painful lament."

-Hellboy

The Beginning.

2008-09-19T16:23:00.000-07:00

So, I have finally started an Art Blog of my very own. It will mostly be related to character design and Illustration, and it will (hopefully) have new art on a fairly regular basis. So, enjoy. Here is the first piece.
