A tattoo concept I did for a friend.  I basically traced it out in sharper lines to make it easy to tattoo.  (See below for original image & finished product).  Here’s a bit of info about the design:
It’s the Cradle of Filth version of the Order of the Fallen Dragon. The order of the fallen [...]

Jeff and I came up with an idea.  Everyone has seen those cute girls PJ’s with little kittens, puppies, penguins, etc. on them.  Well, we want to make a line of PJ’s with more creepy/gross/obscure animals on them.
First up!  The Naked Mole Rat!
I’m starting off by drawing some cartoons, then I’m going to digitalize them, [...]

Book Review | The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book)

This book practically fell into my  lap yesterday.  (Thanks Jen!)  Apparently Ellen recommended it on Oprah and its been growing in popularity since.
It’s not really a self-help book, or a religious book… although it is sort of.  But the beliefs are based on common sense.  How often does that happen in the world of religion [...]

Behold! Zombie Frankie!  A concept we came up with one night and drew the first sketch on a cigarette package.  Drawn with pencil, did the outline in pen, scanned, and the coloring and shading in Photoshop.  Going to use the new tablet to clean up the lines a bit, I find they’re a little harsh [...]

Tattoo design I just did for a friend.  Done entirely using a tablet!  My first digital art piece.  I did the shapes in Illustrator, and the shading in Photoshop.  (Still trying to figure out how to work Illustrator.)

A watercolor I did tonight of Jeff’s eye.  I wanted to try to capture his interesting colors, and practice facial features so I can get better at drawing and painting people.

My first watercolor.  I drew the tree first in pencil, then I took acrylic paints and watered them down for the color.
Given to my best friend as a present, I had to wait a couple weeks to upload this one.  :P  I finished it a little while before I started my nachos.

Well I’ve been playing around in Photoshop again.  I came up with a few somewhat different/quirky makeup concepts.  I’d have to be pretty inspired to try these out on a work-day.. maybe just the colors without the elements drawn in.
In any case, here’s what I came up with!
Bird of Paradise
Inspired from Planet Earth, a tribute [...]

Well its been a long time.. but I finally got around to oil painting again.  Our kitchen/dining room is a little bland, so I decided to paint a picture of our favorite food to hang in there… nachos!  The photos are a little shiny because the paint was still wet, but once its up in a frame [...]
