I Can't Help It...

Thanks Hamish.

La Jolla from David's Window

Cornelius "Elzy Williams" McGinnis

Lately it looks like I am obsessed with funny hats, large mustaches and lots of hair... draw what you know, right?

My Love at Sushi Dan

Flowers for Algernon

The title doesn't really mean anything other than the thought that comes to mind when I read it. Anyways... I have just been introduced to Gouache and this is my first full little painting. I then used Photoshop to create a few other color ideas. Do you know which one is the original?

More Lighting Studies

Here's a few more lighting studies from 8 1/2, Apocalypse Now and Fight Club. Used the full range of Tria Markers for these.

Ugolino and His Sons

This is a quick study from my favorite sculpture at the Met, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux's Ugolino and His Sons.

From Dante's Inferno, this sculpture depicts the moment when Ugolino, condemned to die of starvation, yields to the temptation to devour his children and grandchildren, who cry out to him:

But when to our somber cell was thrown
A slender ray, and each face was lit
I saw in each the aspect of my own,
For very grief both of my hands I bit,
And suddenly from the floor arising they,
Thinking my hunger was the cause of it,
Exclaimed: Father eat thou of us, and stay
Our suffering: thou didst our being dress
In this sad flesh; now strip it all away.

Happy Birthday to the bro.

Merry Christams

And a late Happy Birthday to Aimee.

The City, Snow, a Tree and Me

This post marks number 50.  Hope you all have a Happy Holidays wherever you are.  New York City, I look forward to my return next year.  Oh... and there's a bit of a peaking mountain back there too (just deal with it Savage).

Happy Thanksgiving... a Few Days Late

Pass the Peace Pipe to the Right Hand Side

Took me until the middle of the month to finally drop some Thanksgiving inspired art... but in the spirit of sharing and giving... here you go.

They Are Still There

Ale and the 40

It was Alessandro's 30th birthday last Monday. I was told that he likes drawings. This started as a little sketch during a production meeting. I was having fun with it so I continued it for a few days. Happy Birthday Ale!

Post It #9 - #10

Juan Pablo Valdez Escobar Martinez

This guy usally hangs at the Side Bar; an old bar I used to work at. He was quite the character.




Pig Bear

She used to work with me. I was in love with her.

My Witch Hazel

Alright... last witch for awhile, I promise. Broke out the pencils for the first time in a long time and had a lot of fun. Maybe I should start focusing on some Pilgrims shooting Indians (and Turkey) for the next holiday series.

Happy Challah Ween

I am obsessed with drawing Witches. Instead of focusing my creative energies on a costume this year, I decided to just keep doodling witches. I have a few more to come. And now you have my home address if you want to send me anything... or stalk me. I am okay with both.
