Officer Luci


This was inspired by a new acquaintance that told me she wanted to be a police office in the future. It turned out more cartoony than my usual stuff, but I winded up being happier with it like this.

Peace!!

She'll Get Mad if I Put Her Name Here


I had a request from a friend of mine to draw her as a super hero. She's short and feisty, that makes Wolverine the obvious choice here. I threw her car and cigarettes in for that personal touch, as well as here custom cell phone holder. You can't hide a five inch phone in there...

Peace!!

It's a Slow Process, But I Ain't Got Nothing But Time


I've been of fan of Mario Chavez for a while now, and I'm always impressed by his use of Copic markers for his commissions. He seems to only use cool and warm grays to achieve an entire range of tones, good enough to fool your eyes into seeing colors that aren't really there. I too only use these grays (six dollar markers add up fast!) for my pics, so I'm trying to channel that style a little here.

I also thought it'd be cool to see the different stages my stuff goes through before it hits the interwebz, so here's the pencils and inks.

If you're feeling my style, my rates are cheap haha!

Peace!!

Thanos



This pic all started because I wanted to use my markers and my white gel pen on something.  The only Copics I own at the moment are warm and cool grays  but they're so versatile, and especially on a color scheme like this, and Thanos' eyes being just white specks most of the time lend themselves well to the gel pen.

Peace!

A Looney Trek


I go to Starbucks pretty frequently after work, both to wait out the traffic and to focus more than I can at home. One of the baristas there who always sees me with the pad asked if I could draw something for her. I of course asked "Who's your favorite character," and these three came out. I don't think she was expecting them all in one pic, but the Reading Rainbow theme had just been stuck in my head a few days earlier, so...

Peace!

It's Pucca I Think?



This was a pseudo-going away gift from me to my employer of the last 8 years, a sketch for my manager's daughter of her favorite characters.  I'm pretty unfamiliar with the Pucca phenomenon, so I hope I did the characters well.  It's odd that there's a ninja cartoon The Graphitist is unfamiliar with, so maybe with my time off I'll check it out.

Of course with all this free time coming up, I may just have time to draw YOU something, drop me line!

Peace!!

Renaissance


I just can't stay away from those Ninja Turtles...

As much as I've drawn them throughout my life, it's fitting that Leo was the subject.  I wanted to do something all digital without the familiar comfort of a pencil and pen in my hand, and I wanted to color it and really just experiment with taking a piece further than my usual sketches. 

Peace!!
