Art Show

It was a rough start when I moved back to California in June but things lately have been giving me some hope.  I've been putting together this show over the past few weeks, I think that my work will pay off opening night so if your in California drop by. 

Thanks,

The fruits of my labor (and the labor of at least five other people who ive never seen)

So I've been working from home these past few weeks on a game for the Milky Elephant guys, who in turn were working for Sports Illustrated for kids. This is what we did:

Everyone, play it. It's kinda fun! I did a lot of prep work and animations using the artwork they provided, but I DID draw and color and animate the spaceship that flashes by the left side of the screen after the kid falls through the cloud. It is also one of your opponents in the foot race. HOORAY!

Company Poster

Hey Guys,

I hope the summer has been treating everyone well.

Here is some new illustration work for my job. The company I work for is called Aardvark Design and I was given the task of designing a poster for a moving notice/open house party invite package. The cool thing about doing the poster is that it didn't have to relay any specific information. Anyways I gave them two versions. Hope you enjoy.


P.S. This poster also marks what may be the begining of a long and prosperous modeling career.

Its heavily based on a screen print i did this past winter.

My first piece out of RISD

I'm just so excited, posted this to my own blog and website as well. This is an ink drawing with digital color, sort of revisited on and off this week.


Have I mentioned my love for color-filled line lately? And pink?


Oh, and don't worry, I've been knitting, too.
