My newest photographed and Photoshopped portfolio images. Comments and critique welcome :) More to come!
P.S.: I know the portrait doesn't look exactly like me. I call it a "realistic caricature".

More Sketchbook Fun
Drew this while watching "The Return of Night of the Living Dead"...hilariously lame 80's zombie movie. I was sitting on the couch in the community room, staring at the Xbox we were using as a DVD player...and was suddenly inspired. Enjoy the colored version of the Xbox Monster! Prismacolor marker & pencil.

Tradigital Final
This is a completely digital painting of one of my characters, Bird, done in Adobe Photoshop. I made brushes to resemble watercolor or gouache painting to shade the portrait, made brushes from photographs to draw the thornbushes in the background, made brushes from old scanned documents to make the fingerprints, smudges and splatters, and scanned an old book for the sketchbook background. So pretty much, I scanned stuff a lot and made lots of brushes. Why go to all the trouble? Because I wanted the painting to look as real as possible, like the whole thing had been painted in my sketchbook. I'm reasonably happy with the result, especially with how the painting curves with the scanned pages into the center fold of the book. Hope you like it!

Sketchbook Pages
Just some scanned pages from my sketchbook. Some explanations: the first image is the original designs for my 3D sea monsters. The zombies one is something all the art kids here are doing...draw a zombie in your own style and include the words F*** ZOMBIES. Profanity really isn't my thing but it was fun to see everyone's different styles. The third image is a sketch I did of a very obviously stoned man dancing at the reggae & rasta concert we went to downtown because I thought it was hilarious, and the fourth image is just a surreal doodle with some super-ocd anatomy. Enjoy :)
