Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays to everyone! As i look back on this past year i see so much improvement in my art and that is really exciting. My thanks go out to all my friends and family who have supported me and helped me when times got rough. This past year i learned a new 3d program, i learned how to composite 3d into video footage, i worked for a gaming company doing illustrations, i went to San Diego Comicon, i reacquainted myself with my cousins and my new second cousins in California and i am in a relationship with someone i love. What a great year! I will be graduating next year around september with a Bachelors of Art in media arts and animation. I can't wait to see what the next year holds! Be ready, i know it will be exciting and i will be posting all here!

Another quick pinup sketch. I inked it during work last night. I usually like to make dark hair for pinups. i guess because its fun to ink and gives it that classic Betty Paige feel but my coworker suggested i leave it so i could make her blond or red headed instead when and if i ever color her. Hope ya like!

This is what i was doing instead of paying attention in physics class!
I'm in finals right now so i'm doing what feels like a million things. I'll be posting more soon!!

The Gate Keeper

In traveling to the underworld Magnus and his crew come across the Cerberus. Placed in the underworld to guard the gates from letting anyone IN or OUT. This creature does not breath fire but has nearly impenetrable armored scales. It is fast, agile and ferocious. How will Magnus defeat such a creature?

Picturesque

Another one i'm working on. This one is still in the very early stage.

Here is a little bit more progress on the pirate painting. It doesn't look like much and it may be dark on your computer but most of the time was spent on the ship wood and the barrel under her foot.
I've got a few other paintings in the works as well.
