I'm Not Dead Yet..

...but the process may get me yet.

I've been working on an awesome comic project recently, and the deadline is quickly coming up over the horizon.  My time lately has been devoted towards that, hence the lack of fresh Graphiti.    But just to prove I'm still exercising the right brain, here's some layouts from the current page.

I'd love to chat more, but like Biggie said, I got a story to tell.

Peace!!

Champloo Jam

What a fun piece to draw! This was for a jam with some fellow artists, all orchestrated by the cuz (check out his piece here and to link to the rest) with some great results! I will definitely be putting more time in on this one and give it a proper scan soon.

Peace!

This Doesn't Look Like a Superhero..

So that comfort zone thing is slowly going out the window..

Happy Valentine's Day interwebz.

Peace!!

Hulk!

So it's official, I have to draw the Hulk every time I watch the Avengers.  Marvel really hit a home run with that one.  With all of their origins already out of the way in their solo movies, they can get right into the action.  And we all showed up for the Hulk more than anything right?

Peace!

Just Horsing Around...

I've never ridden a horse.  

That's not completely true.  I have a very vague memory of being on the back of one in my early early years, feeling in control and completely oblivious to the trained handler guiding me around.  But I've never truly ridden, never felt that rush of wind or the connection I imagine most riders feel.  

I've also not tried drawing one in a long, long time.  To break up the monotony of my usual artistic endeavors I thought I'd break out of my comfort zone and try something newish.  I very rarely draw from life anymore (which is probably the most terrible thing an artist can say,) so it felt good to flex a little and get some quick sketches out.  

I'm going back to the comfort zone now...

Peace!!

A Short Break

So I've been working on some layouts for an upcoming comic project lately, pretty much all I've been doing really.  To try and stay disciplined I told myself that'd be all I'd focus on, but I still sneak random sketches in to break things up now and then.  Nothing gets between TheGraphitist and his pad (analog or digital.)

I've been using Sketchbook Pro on a Windows 8 tablet (do yourself a favor and just get a Note 10.1), and this was a loose sketch that'll probably go all the way..just waiting for the next break.

Peace!

Spider Fight

It's been a while since I had an update.  This wasn't drawn too recently, maybe a month ago?  Between various sketchbooks, papers, and programs, I'm having a hard time keeping up with what's what.  And that's not a bad thing at all..

Peace!
