There's A Where





The finish, followed by 3 screen caps of the piece at different stages.

On a funny side note, I just realized I left the reflection for my glasses on my cheek. Oh well, I kind of like it there hah.

Chazz. Squares. (Yet another WIP)


Another portrait of of a friend of mine. Originally this was to be a cartoony version of him, but I've decided to go a different route. Essentially, I'll be keeping the realistic look to him, but making his surroundings more playful.

Still in WIP status

A while ago I gave you all a sneak peek at this sucker, and now I figured, since I've kept you waiting so long, I may as well show you what I have.

EDIT:
Since then, I have converted this into a horizontal format as well as a traditional painting. Will be posting it and many others in a few weeks.

Mon. 4:10 AM and I just studied the wrong chapter


So I said to hell with it and went to paint. I don't know what sort of study one would call this, but I just felt like painting someone I knew. I was already on my good friend, Kelly's page on Facebook, so I grabbed her main pic, and decided to have at it.

It's not traced, but it is heavily referenced. I didn't even change the pose or anything. And outside of her wildly colored hair (I took liberties with the colors all over), and some proportional issues on my end, this here is just a copy of the picture I was looking at. I really wanted to step right into the painting instead of starting with a typical outline and all that, so that's what I did.

Hope you don't mind Kell.

Lines or no lines?




I can't decide.

Sneak Peek


I've only shown one or two people what I'm working on, but even then, I've totally changed the way I was going about painting this. Hope you find this to be a big improvement, I sure do. I am immensely satisfied with how this is turning out. Good reference makes all the difference. I'll make sure never to forget that, and neither should you.

Happy Halloween...a week or so early

I'd been wanting to make this for a while. I'm happy to say I have no real complaints about this one...though if you look closely you can spot where I failed at hiding the book's gutter.

Done in pencil, and ink.

Letterman Pig

There are a number of technical issues with this piece, but overall I like how it came out.
