November 10, 2009

So I’ve been trying to get back into the habit of using my sketchbook.  Last month there was a point where I started getting completely overwhelmed and I stopped producing anything useful, plus i was busy.  Definitely hard stuff for me to cope with.I have since jump started the sketching process, gotten a few rough […]

Anyhow… the other thing I did was create a little […]

June 28, 2009

Joy and glee and wondrousness.  I managed to finish up the monster piece to my satisfaction, and i love it. It’s fun and joyful and ridiculous.

I also bring you a closeup of the littlest […]

So I did more work on my darling farting monster.  I am unbelievably happy with this piece. I hate to say it, but I think I’m taking these two firefly pieces home and using them to adorn whatever place we’re calling home come September. At least for a little while.
Yes, that’s a Ferengi ship, as […]

The first painting i […]
