30 - Mural part 4









...And here we have the rest of what I have done so far. Just got started on the color, hopefully the rest of the color will bring it all together. Hell as long as some kids get a kick out of it I'll be happy.

27 - Mural part 1












Well here it is. Finally getting some artwork done. Talk of a mural for the children's section at the new bookstore I got hired to work for in the Idaho Youth Ranch started during my interview and the other day one of my bosses said it was put up or shut up time. She gave me a full day to figure out what to put on the wall and I spent the next work day putting it all up on the wall in charcoal. Finished off the work week, Saturday and Sunday for me, by putting all the outlining up on the wall in black paint. Sunday afternoon I even got a little bit of the color put up. Hopefuuly I will be wrapping this up soon, I think my managers want me to get back to work, lol.
And yes it is more of a disjointed collection of characters then a fluid integrated mural but that's what I'm calling it. More pics will follow.

26 - 32 months

Well... let's see. Got a new wife, check. Got a full time job, check. Got a stack of bills to catch up on, check. All things going as planned I guess. Stress stress stress, but in a way it makes me happy. for I have hit another little milestone, it has been 32 months since I had a smoke. Still want one some days but I don't need one anymore. Now if I could just get some new stuff up here I would be doing great. I blame the Warhammer.

25 - And March comes in like a lion



The day has arrived. Me and Danielle are going down to the courthouse today and tying the knot at 2:30 this afternoon. I am going to be a married man and things are going great.
Hopefully all is fine and well with everyone out there.

24 - And onto February...sketchbook please...











I am currently working on a digital painting of a character of mine from Warhammer, his name is Twixt,and he's looking cool so far. But at the moment I am not ready to let anyone see what I got so far, so...
These are some of the pages I have been doing in my sketchbook keeping up with my new year's resolution, one drawing a day no matter what. And I am happy to say that I haven't missed a day so far, 1/6th of the way through the year, not bad.
After all the craziness at the end of the semester last year I wanted to take on a fun set of drawings so I am actually working my through a copy of How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way I just picked up. My first copy disappeared a long time ago, had to buy a new one. So much love to Stan Lee and John Buscema, great stuff. Nothin like turning some boxes into akward looking planes and doing some old school perspective practice. And Animal was just for fun. Hope you enjoy the sketches.
