Art Fart

Long time no post!

I've slowly been slipping away from drawing, but just recently got very inspired to keep at it and get better. I think it's amazing how just a couple minutes spent looking at great artwork can inject so much drive and passion into an artist.

Funny then, that the pictures below aren't any of the drawings I've made after having been inspired recently. Nope, these are old poops I've found laying around that I think are still worth posting. My newer drawings will be posted sometime soon though!








Sometimes I forget just how fulfilling drawing can be. Pencil and paper, it's so simple. Yet therein lie infinite possibilities! There have been times when I'm drawing, and I think to myself, "I can do just this for the rest of my life and be happy". Add in a lifetime supply of Honey Bunches of Oats, and damn if it ain't true.

Pop Secret "Dark Knight"

Here is the first of three Pop Secret spots I've been working on over at Nathan Love! They are all based on movies, and this first one is based on The Dark Knight. It just started airing on tv. Check it out!


I animated Grandma's demise popping, and most of the shots of Bobby, save for the last shot, and the one where Grandma jumps off the sofa. I've had the pleasure of working with some great people over at Nathan Love these past few months. Every day is a blast, and I'm really proud of all the work we churn out. Two more of these spots are on the way. I'm sure they'll be just as awesome!

You Could Be Mine

So...damn...tired. o__o;;

Here's a cg of Regina I made recently. There are a couple things about the pic that irk me (proportions and face arrangement), but overall I'm pretty pleased with it. Usually after I finish a cg, I'll look back at it after a couple days and think it looks like utter crap, but not with this one! Hope ya dig.


I was gonna try and finish off this entry with something mildly clever and profound, but then I realized I'm neither of those. Instead, I leave you with this masterfully crafted paper mache of Pikachu!

Knockin' on Heaven's Door

My body is always tired, but my mind just wants to bust out the story and comic for Revenant. Ah yea, and to add on top of the fact that there's a dumb vampire craze going on, I just found out that there's a movie coming out called, you guessed it, The Revenant. I think I went nuts after I found that out... The story isn't the slightest bit similar, in fact its title probably serves the movie better than mine, but still! Now I'm considering changing the title for my story. Crap.

Anywho, here is a rather lazy cg I made of Regina using one of my old sketches. I really want to make this a movie someday... hence, the cheesy film grain and depth of field.


I've been writing the script for Revenant (now tentative title) on my commutes to and from work every day. It's a slow and grueling process that takes massive amounts of tweaking, chin scratching, and actually acting out the scenes myself (mentally of course). It takes an asston of time to get the dialogue right, and even more to make sure that each character is, well, staying in character. It's slow. But if this is what it takes to get it right, I'll drag my fat ass through it. It will get done. Comic, movie, 3d short, WHATEVER. Something will come of this.

p.s - Uncharted 2 is one of my favorite games ever.

Revenant sketches

Long time since my last post... Been pretty tired as of late, and the only real time I have to draw anything is on my commute to work. I'll whip out the moleskine and try to draw as best as I can on the shaky train. Sometimes I get pretty into it and the 45 minute ride goes by fast. Other times I'll be too tired and just sleep, haha. Most of the drawings in the sketchbook are Regina related. And that brings me to another point. I think I have a name for my comic/movie/whatever the hell it is. It's still tentative, but Revenant, will do for now. I'll try to refer to it using that name instead of calling it "Regina's story" all the time. Here are the sketches, hope ya like.

Regina enjoying a cig


She will probably finish that bottle before heading off, haha


About to let loose


Welp, that's it for now. I've been getting immeasurably irked by the amount of vampire related movies that have been coming out/getting announced. It really saddens me to think that Revenant could get bogged down in all the other vampire movies out there. But now that I think about it, it's not like it will be finished any time soon. If it ever does get released in any form, it will probably be a looong time from now. So here's to hoping that by then, this gay vampire craze will have died down.

Peace!

p.s.- I watched District 9 today and could not hold my excitement leaving the theater. WATCH IT. MANY TIMES.
