figure drawin and a couch!!







^^^^click above for commentary^^^^

Hey guys. Quick post. I'm real excited about the way I've been approaching figure drawing lately...sort of adopting a Tony Ryder and Zhaoming Wu method. And on the completely other side of the spectrum I have an image I did for a commercial that I worked on with Jihad Lahham. It was to promote an event at our school. I think it's running on Comcast or something similar. But as soon as I knock this plague of a sickness that's running threw southern FLA I got some art blogging to do!!

Update

Hey guys! I'm exhausted from the Orlando MegaCon but it was a great time. Thanks to everyone that stopped by the booth! I've been to some cons before but this one had some pretty wild people there....emphasize wild..haha.

In other news, I was fortunate to get 2 pieces in the Society Of Illustrators Student show. Congrats to all that got in! Last week I also finished a piece for VIBE magazine. I'll wait until I get a tearsheet before I post it. The issues should hit stores April 10th! I also signed on to be the artist on a comic to be produced over the next year or so. I will be handling all the art chores so it will be a heavy duty project as well as a real good time. I'm working on the initial poster/promotional illustration now so I'll post that guy when I wrap it up. Lastly I am working on an "art of" book to be released later this year (hopefully by ComicCon) so I'm going to be keeping busy.

And if anyone is attending the Illustration Academy at Ringling over the summer give me a shout. I'd love to find out who's going!!!!

ps. They posted the Spectrum winners HERE.
Congrats to all those that made it in!!!!!!!

action sketches!


Hey guys. I got a quickie today since I feel guilty for the lack of posts lately. Just getting warmed up for a long term project I'm beginning. I'll get those Fechin scans and commentary back up soon. Oh, and if anyone is in the area I will be at the Orlando MegaCon this Fri-Sun....Booth 325 and/or 327.
take care,
