F I N A L L Y !!!

It's been a long time! Lots of new stuff to put up and more to come!
Life has been quite busy, with lots to do. SO I'll share with you some of the things
I've been up to! Hope you enjoy!
First I'd like to share some of the process work and test pieces for my second picture book.






That piece was done in ink and watercolor, I will also create some test pieces with just watercolor with limited line work and some done in CRAYON!

Speaking of crayon, heres some color studies I've done, I loved working on them with the crayons and will be using crayon much more now ;) I'm just a big boy anyway so it's ok.

























Next up is TAD he's the main character from the third picture book I am working on










Next I have some characters that I have been playing around with for fun, I want to color them




but try something different. Perhaps a media I don't use often like Illustrator, any ideas??









and here's his friend...Benito

Oh I'm so happy. Your post brought a big smile to my face, your characters are great. What I love about them is that their these creative monsters, yet they're also charming in a way....and so exciting. Great work, and I'm loving the colors.

Hey Sucka these are great! I was about to talk you some smack for not posting in a week or two. So stow it Corn Bread!! I love the top watercolor and your character designs have a life of their own! Are you still interested in Comic Con?

Love the new characters, too.
