I think I am just about finished with this one. I think I will be doing some more in this style. I enjoyed this a lot.

Hey! A new post! And not just sketchbook junk either! This is watercolor, gouache and some Farber Castell markers thrown in for good measure. Click to see it a bit better.

Ok, extravaganza might be a slight exaggeration but it is a pretty fun word to use. These paintings are from the last couple of weeks and are spread out between three different sketchbooks. I’ve taken to doing random splashes of watercolors and gouache in my sketchbook pages to give myself something a little more interesting to work on rather than plain paper all the time. Some of these are the results.
I’m about to start a new body of work, and I think these little pieces are indicating the direction I want to go. The direction isn’t set in stone, but I’m getting excited regardless. I’d like to throw out a big Thank You to everyone who has posed, or has agreed to pose in the near future for reference photos. I can’t tell you how helpful it is!

Ok, here is a whole gaggle of new images. That sketchbook that I started a couple posts back, well this is the end of it. Next post will be stuff from a new one.
And last but not least are a couple pieces of unfettered fanboy goodness. The Eva was done the night before cyphacon, and Tetsuo was done while hanging with my buddy John Davis at his table at the con. They are both ink and white gouache on pastel paper (plus just a touch of green on the EVA.)
I’m going to try to stay on a much more consistent updating schedule, but I think i say that a lot, so we shall see.

Finally updating. I’m putting a pretty good chunk of stuff up today. This is easily the biggest post I’ve put up here so far.
(As always, click the images to get to bigger versions for your viewing pleasure.)
Starting off with a piece I did for/of my good friend John Davis. Sorry it took so damned long John, I hope it was worth the wait.
Gouache & Watercolor on paper
This represents about six and a half hours geeking out with a new mechanical pencil on a Friday night. Good god my social life is a sad sad thing.
Graphite on Bristol board. 11″x14.
Here is a new scratchboard, featuring my favorite carrion eater.
And now a bunch of new crap from my 3″x5″ standard & watercolor paper moleskines and an 8″x5″ moleskine. Some of this stuff is actually drawn from life!

Hello all. It has been entirely too long since my last update. In that time lots of sketches have piled up, so this will be a big one. This will wrap up my previous moleskine. I finished it off a day or two after the new year, but I don’t care, I’m counting it as #3 filled up in 2010. I’m going to try to do more this year, and the beginning of the next book will in the next post.
*Gouache on the left, water color pencil on the right.
And that is the last page. Next post will be from the new book.
