More Sketchbook Art

From the Sketch Book

Concept of a top secret project I'm working on. Having personal projects to work on in the rare moments I'm not working on work projects keeps me happy and sane.  I love riding the train because it's just about the only time I can find to develop this story.

A Flying Mermaphrocorn

Mermaid + Hermaphrodite + Unicorn.

Don't ask. I don't want to talk about it.

Tak Environments

I dug up some old Tak stuff today. I think all the Tak stuff I used to post was only characters. It's interesting to me to see these and see how my style has evolved.

A Progression That Proves My Immaturity

I was riding the bus with my kids and I drew them in my sketch book. Then I was at the beach with them and drew a shark eating my daughter.

Then I drew my kids as shark riding adventurers.

And this is where it got really bad. My kids like to tell me really ridiculous things to draw, so this is me riding a giant mutant box jelly fish into victory against the shark riders.

My parental strategy for keeping children happy consists of drawing dumb pictures and talking about poop, farts or body parts. I'm amazed at how long I can keep them giggling by doing only this.

Mount Olympus

I designed this digital image for a theater set and then painted the actual set - WITH REAL PAINT BRUSHES! It's been a while since I've done that. It was really fun, but I realized how babied I am working digitally because my back is killing me now.

Process

I saved 30 versions of this piece until I had the final. Here are a few of them.

This is the sketch I started with. I was hoping they would choose the middle one, but they didn't.

See the final on the my previous post.

Blizzard Art

Sassy Cow

A friend commissioned this bovine beauty.

Epic Mickey

This is one of the last pieces I did when I was at Disney. It was for the game Epic Mickey. I've never played the game and I have no idea if it made it in. Anyone else played it? Is it any good?
