Wicked Little Purr-rincess



Sometimes when I have a long day of drawing ahead of me, I'll start off by just doodling something fun and random, just to get the juices flowin'. This one's from yesterday.

Recent PWTorch Wrestler Art



Every few months, the Pro Wrestling Torch crew has me create some new headshot illustrations for their site, newsletters and apps (head to pwtorch.com for more info). I always try to do them in a much more photorealistic style than my usual stuff, which is fun -- I like the variety.

"A mind needs books like a sword needs a whetstone."



Today is my brother Cory's birthday and he's been wanting me to draw some Tyrion fan art (from "Game of Thrones") -- Tyrion's his favorite character. So I took a few hours today to draw this. Cory, I hope ya like it, because you have a big 11"x17" color print-out of it on the way. :) Happy Birthday!

Inspiration: Iain McCaig



I'm still in post-SDCC catch up mode, but I wanted to share this video -- if you're an artist, or even just a fan of the artistic process, it's worth watching. Iain McCaig (iainmccaig.blogspot.com) is a legend in the industry, not to mention one of the nicest guys on planet Earth. I had the good fortune of meeting him a few years ago and he was incredibly humble, kind, and most of all, positive.

I would also recommend a series of DVDs he released a few years back via www.thegnomonworkshop.com. They're a bit pricey (there are 4 volumes), but if you have the money and are interested in seeing his creative process from rough sketches all the way to the finished art, they're so worth buying. I found his advice to be really inspirational. Anyway, so enjoy some McCaig goodness.

As for me, I'm sorry I'm a bit behind on emails -- will definitely catch up on them soon.
Between catching up on projects, commissions, and planning for a wedding, things are crazy! :)

The Dancer and the Sea Goddess

A couple sketches from Comic-Con --



Babydoll (from Sucker Punch) for Patrick
and



Tia Dalma (from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies) for Leslie.
The Tia headshot was actually drawn on regular white cardstock, I added that parchment-lookin' background in Photoshop just for fun. :) Thanks again, Pat & Leslie!
