Pencil sample

Here is where I'm at.

Food Yes, Cook No #1 is still available for sale!

Reposting:
Finally I'm putting it up for sale. It was put together in November for APE 2008, and since then I'd just been too busy/lazy to announce its availability otherwise.

But suddenly I couldn't resist having the yellow "Buy Now" button on my blog, so here tis, with a coupla previews. No way can you read it from here, so you might as well get it.




FYI: If you buy it from me in person, it's just the $5, cos we ain't gotta do no crazy ship charges. Plus, you know, I can lick it or something. Or I can just sign it like a normal person. Whatever you want.



So if you were to buy a foodzine-related art print from me, what would it look like?
Please give me some ideas! Thanks :)

100 views

I have 100 views on my blog. Not bad for not having officially announced its existence these past few months :)

So I drew 5 pages of my first short comic, in blue pencil. I'm reworking the staging of the fifth page, which I'll probably need new photo reference for, but I'm glad I figured out it needed changing before I wasted any more time on the wrong thing ... Actually I'm basically scrapping everything I had for the fifth page and will DEFINITELY need to reshoot photo reference. SIGH. I think I'll just start with a fresh piece of board instead of erasing this whole page.

My perspective skills are still as poor as I remember they were in school. I was hoping they would have improved with time, as my line sensitivity has improved since graduation. My instructors likened the process of absorbing lesson material to a snake digesting a rat. Or something. It's supposed to mean, don't think about it, just swallow everything we say now and you might understand what we mean later once it's all come out on the other side.

It was actually true in some cases. So make of that what you will.

The only good thing about August are the Leos.

... the good Leos, anyway. I'm part Leo but you wouldn't know it.
Here are some sketches, wherein I discovered I love drawing people at shows.

Folks included in these sketches are: Bryce of Lakebed Recording, Roberto Miguel, and Star St. Germain.

My desk

Wow, it's been a month since I've posted anything. Sorry about that. I am drawing again after some problems (some being life and some just being my lame brain), but I should have some blue pencil drafts to post soon.
I am working on one in this pic I took tonight:

So that's proof!

Nibby tests

Messing around with how I want to draw dis thang, so naturally I checked out my nib treasures. I have lots of good ones! And so far they are pretty fun to use, too.

Now if only it wasn't so bullshit to scan.

Now it's under-drawing time. I'll check in later.
