Last nights drink and draw was a mild success. Just in the fact that I actually painted. the results of the painting are meh at best but it gave me a chance to crack open the dried paint tubes, ouch.

the mighty footprint

2010-07-01T16:09:00.000-07:00

owlgyle

2010-05-13T16:14:00.000-07:00

I wanted to create something interesting for Sage to look at. So I combined something I like looking at (owls) with something I don't like looking at (argyle).

because sometimes you want to draw a superhero

2010-05-11T22:21:00.001-07:00

Tweeter

2010-04-01T15:40:00.000-07:00

I saw a young fella texting outside on his phone the other day, and a bird was singing in the background. The kid looked as if he was getting annoyed with the bird, as if it was disrupting his focus. I thought isn't it interesting that we don't find technologies like twitter annoying? Instead we find nature to be the annoyance. Here is a quick sketch of how I saw the situation.

queue for thought

2010-03-24T13:01:00.000-07:00

I had a thought at lunch, America thinks it is like a really posh club and there is a queue waiting outside to get in. In reality the club is pretty dead inside, because the guard out front is not letting everyone in. We are so worried about filtering "good from bad" that we miss the point entirely. This idea would make for a good illustration.

whoo?

2010-03-22T10:12:00.001-07:00

I need to dust off my airbrush skills for this one. I found an old painting at a thrift store and I am looking to updated so I can hang it in the house.

while I wait

2010-03-18T09:47:00.000-07:00

I have a few projects in the fire but for the time between projects I figured I would give myself some more projects. One is to fill the wall space in my house with photos and paintings. There is a large area in the stair well that I would like to put up some color so this is a preliminary design for a canvas piece that would go nicely.

Los Caprichos

2010-03-02T08:01:00.000-08:00

These etchings are great. I digg Fransisco de Goya. because he has a "de" in his name. I am thinking about renovating this series into a contemporary portrayal the problem is there are 80 plates and I don't have a lot of time so they might be compromised. such as life.

water and Mexicans

2010-03-01T07:47:00.000-08:00

If you control the water and the Mexicans you have yourself a successful western city. This is how Phoenix was built. I am realizing that through the forceful nature of "western settlers" we have adopted a intrusive pattern on both nature and humanity. The rivers that once flowed through Phoenix are now capped and dry and the free range of cattle and humans has now been fenced and prodded back where they belong. If this is the legacy that Phoenix really brings then there is something that needs to be said. I am not sure if I am the one to say it loudly but I will speak it quietly to myself.

Alright, I am new to this Blog thing. The main goal of this blog is to communicate with artist whom I admire and meet new artists that gain my intersts. I also would like feedback on my art that I will be displaying here before it is finished.
so here we go!
my first post will be a thumbnail storyboard for a animation I am putting together for one of my classes at Cal State Fullerton. it is a pencil test of a character picking up an object using the princples of animation. It is still in its infancy but any feedback can be helpful.
