Tempo. . .

Here's a character I helped create with DJ Shwann. 'Tempo Slice' More info on her here.

Arrows, punks and coffee . . .

These first two were commissions and the chick with the coffee cup was a warm-up dedicated to a friend who bestowed the joy of starbucks upon me. Starbucks is from Heaven....they should serve it in Church.

Here and Gone. . .

Over the weekend I found out one of my good friends is expecting a baby...and another one of my good friends died. It's amazing how you can feel joy and sorrow in the same moment. . .how you can feel two completely different emotions simultaneously. Though these things are opposites they brought me to the same conclusion. Life is precious. . .meaningful. . .valuable. The start of life and the finish of life changes those closest to it forever. These monumental events and all moments in between can not be taken for granted.

I thank God for my life and the lives of my Wife and children. Congratulations Eric, your world is about to be reborn and I know you're ready for the journey. Tone Bing, you were one of the realest, coolest, funniest dudes I ever had the pleasure to call a close friend. My prayers go up for your family. you are missed.

Me VS. the World

It's quarter to 1 in the morning. . .I'm just sittin' down to work. It's been a long weekend. It's been a long month, actually. It's been one of those long, dangerous months. You know, when you don't know if you're gonna make it to the next month. . .like you might not come out of this one alive. Yeah...one of those months. Good times.

Anyway, here's a Commission I did for DJ Shwann of 2 of his OCs goin' at it jungle style.

Droppin' a Load. . .

Just a smidgen of what I've been doin' (...smidgen?).

Bat chicks, terminator samurai, smooth ex-cons...stuff like that. more to come.

It's gettin' harder to work on personal art these days. Between work and the kids it's difficult to get a real good pencil workout. But I guess I'd rather be Daddy than an art god.

...but I'm so close to art god though.

Back Shots. . .

Isyss for ProBeat Magazine.
That chair is weak, But i spent so much time on. . .other areas. . .when i finally got around to the chair i just said eff it. Nobody's lookin' at the chair anyway.....

Reclusive. . .

I've been feeling really shut in lately. I think the extrovert in me packed up and quit. I just wanna' isolate myself in my office/living room and work for days at a time.

. . .i may be turning into a recluse. I really don't wanna be one of those old dudes with the wierd beard and piss/arm pit odor who only come out of the house to stock up on more cans of pork 'n' beans. I just don't wanna be that guy. And I'm comin' up on 30. . .that guy is right around the corner.

So yeah, I figured I should update this thing. It's been awhile. Here are a few commissions i did awhile back. More stuff comin' soon.

-keep it ill-

Sooner or Later. . .

I wanna update this thing more often but most of what i've been on isn't published yet. That and right now there's just no time for personal stuff. I'm multigrindin' in every direction (yeah i made that word up...you can use it). Also, I'm workin' on a 'big picture' project that i'm keeping close to the chest for now. Just wanted to let yall know there's something big on the horizon. more on that later. . .

Whats that? you wanna know my plans for 2010? well, readers... I plan on getting alot out to you. Not just content but quality. There are stories that need to be told and I'm doin the tellin'. So stay tunned. more on that SOON.

Nothin really to post lately, so here's some work stuff. Early stages of a work in progress (or 'wip' for cool people...or 'wo n pro' for douches). This whole peice is actually close to completion but I stopped saving process shots....so....that's all you get.
Hope you dig it like a shovel.

Pretty sure I've got the flu. Is it the swine?...dunno...if I die...then yes. Anyway here's a couple new peices. The first is another snipet from a magazine project and the space chick is a warm-up sketch from the other day (Leigh Young rip-off). -keep it ill-
