Caring

I created 3 images for the elementary school that I work for.  All three images had to reflect the same theme of "caring".  Below, you will find the images I created.  Your thoughts and comments are always appreciated.
In the picture where the boy is pushing the girl on a swing, notice that negative space within the two trees overlapping each other create a heart shape to show the girl swinging inside of that heart. 



- Enjoy!

Limbo!

It is believed that if one kills themselves, their soul goes into Limbo.  Below is a creepy limbo demon that I created.  He sees you; but you can't see him... You can't hear him whisper "Do it!" into your ear.  He wraps himself around your neck making you breathless and wraps around your arm guiding his will onto you.  He is created from the souls he has collected.  Will he collect yours? 

As always, comments are always appreciated.

Enjoy!

Another day...

Here are two images that I created. The first one is a drawing that I did last night. The second drawing is a quick cartoon sketch I did of a working class family. The man seems beat up and exhausted from his day at work while the woman seems to be ready for round two of a second shift with her cell phone and briefcase at hand. Enjoy!

The Rite

Last night my sister, a friend, and I went to the movies to see "The Rite" with Anthony Hopkins. I really enjoyed the movie. While watching the movie a dramatic image of a nun holding a dagger to herself popped into my head; so naturally this morning I decided to bring it out of my head and put it onto paper. I sat at Chipotle for a little while and this is what I drew up. As always, feedback is always welcome and appreciated. Enjoy!

College Bound Panda

This is a drawing that I did for Enchanted Hills Elementary School in Perris, CA. They needed a panda design for their graduating Elementary school kids and asked me if I could come up with a quick sketch that they could use for the shirts of their students. The panda is the school's mascot. This is the image that I came up with. Enjoy!

What's that noise?

A drawing for a children book I'm illustrating. The actual drawing hasn't been okay-ed yet, but here's what I did. Next step is to add color to it and clean it up a bit. The color that's on it right now isn't the final color... it's a quick ten minute coloring I did specifically for this post so that I'm not uploading a boring black and white image. The final color product won't look anything like this one. Enjoy!

Misc. Drawings

Yesterday while substitute teaching for a high school math class I decided to take some computer paper and sketch. The students were working on their math worksheets and studying for their test, so I was able to do some drawing (I wouldn’t want you to think I’m neglecting a class). So I created these four images while at the high school. I actually drew a ton of other images, but several students saw me drawing and were admiring the pictures and asked me to draw something for them to keep. About 3 or 4 more drawings that I did yesterday actually went out to some students who requested a drawing. Anyway, here is what I have from yesterdays drawing fun. All of the drawings done were very quick and rough drawing done with a ball point pen. No color or cleaning up of the images have been done yet.

Enjoy!

Karate Kip & Ninja Ned in a "Flash"

Adobe Flash CS3 to be exact. If you've been to my art blog before, you may notice this drawing a little further down into my portfolio as having been a sketch that I did a while back. I had never taken this drawing and finished it with color because for some reason I didn't think that Photoshop would really do to the image what I had imagined for it. It, in my mind, had more of a solid feel to it that I'm I know you can get with Photoshop; but my problem is that when I work with Photoshop I tend to want to get into shading and minor details that I didn't want to get with this image. I wanted to give this image a Cartoon Network, Saturday morning cartoon feel to it. Hopefully it has that feeling. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the drawing. There's no real story to these two characters. Enjoy!

Save the Cheerleader, Save the world

I drew this picture when I first started watching the shoe Heroes and was a HUGE fan. I'm still trying to learn the Flash software and figured that this picture would be a great image to use for me to practice. I found the picture and used it in my own self training of Flash CS3. I'm still learning flash, but for a novice I think I'm not lookin' to shabby. Any feedback, criticism, comments, etc are always encouraged and definitely welcome. Any flash tips would also be greatly appreciated. Thank's for stopping by.
Enjoy,

Sharks

Today I decided to teach myself Flash. I'm using Adobe Flash CS3. I'm trying to give myself a few weeks to learn the software and I'm starting today with the basics. Today I spent the day trying to understand the software and the menu options using an old drawing that I did this summer. I took the shark drawing and decided to digitize it using Flash. I'm sure it's a very amateur job and I'm sure that a lot of professional Flash artists will look at this and not think much of it... but it's my first attempt at flash and I'm proud... haha. So I'll leave it at that and hopefully as I teach myself more things through the days my work will get better and look more professional. Enjoy,

Figure Drawings

I realized that I don't have any figure drawing images that I've done. I went into my computer and found a few images to add to my portfolio.
Enjoy!
