What do you think?

This is a concept for a new current project at work.  It's meant as a pan-up shot.  What do you think?

colored scribble a day 7 (I drew a turkey)


Back in the day if you didn't eat your turkey....

It ate you.

So eat turkey guilt free.

Because you never know when the Turkey Apocalypse is.

2013-11-20 Sketch

I started this sketch, but didn't like it, so I didn't finish it.  Plus I realize that I tend default to subjects facing the same way.

Low Art to High Art


Much better if I do say so myself.

Monthly Challenge Credible Cryptoid


For hundreds of years farmers in rural towns have been reporting sightings of other worldly crafts and life forms watching them as they work, travel and even sleep. They have been mutilating their cattle and leaving cryptic communications via patterns and circles in their wheat fields. Finally, through the prevalence of cellphone cameras, one of these malevolent beings has been captured on digital photo for the world to see.

Redemption- Saving the Soul of Low Art

Not all art is created equal. Walk into your local DI and you'll be surrounded by this kind of stuff:

Low and high art can be a matter of opinion. Some people look down on comic books, which is just sad. For this exercise go ahead and make it personal. Find something that artistically disgusts you, that makes you want to laugh or cry, and save its soul. Give it new life. Take some aspect of the "low" art and make it high. Stained glass graffiti, Lisa Frank on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, classical Greek sculpture of Ren & Stimpy, whatever you want. It can be either an original drawing/painting or you can simply manipulate existing images to get the same effect. Don't just leave the kitsch in your grandma's attic, spruce it up a little and put it in the Louvre!



Don't do this, because it's already been done:

Week 41 Illustration Challenge - Bill Watterson


The artist of the week is - Bill Watterson

If you don't know who he is, go buy some of his books, and your life will change forever!  I have always been fascinated by his brilliant black and white ink work.  Amazing detail in very simple ways. I also love his use of white space, and his soft use of watercolor.  If we could just be a little like Bill, we would all be geniuses!

Heather - Monthly Challege (Credible Cryptoid)


Not exactly credible or cryptoid...for a couple of hours I fooled around with adding calcified animals to illustrate the Nazi monster...but that turned out dopey.  So, metaphorical this time around.  I'll have to give it another go before Halloween.

October 2013 Challenge - The Credible Cryptid


Cryptozoology is defined as the study of and search for legendary animals (such as Sasquatch) in order to evaluate the possibility of their existence.  There are many photos floating around the innerweb promoting evidence of such mythical creatures, but not enough! The challenge is to Photoshop a photo, or create video that looks like it is evidence captured, or a supposed found old photo that boasts evidence these creatures actually existed.  Make it look real, make it look like it was captured by an innocent bystander, and make people question reality!  Bonus points if you can create an image that goes viral.  There will be a prize for best cryptid created!  (i'll buy you doughnuts and give you a high five, but there will be a prize!)
