My brother's birthday was yesterday and I made this for him cuz he loves his Volvo (uninteresting side note : it was previously MY Volvo). Ink and watercolor.



This was the initial rough sketch.


A few sketches of Bruce Campbell, with varying degrees of success, for Caricaturama.

The C - words!

More stuff from my sketchbook that I scanned and photoshopped. Cash, Clapton, and a Challenger. By the way, I AM too lazy to draw in guitar strings.

Megaman!

I cut this junk out of construction paper. I made this along with that King Kong for some art show based on nerdy video game stuff. I'll take pictures when that thing happens.

Sketchbook

So I had this little travel sketchbook for almost a year now and I finally filled it. Most of this stuff was done standing around at work being bored. I might have shown some of this stuff before, but I was too lazy to go back and make sure.

One year later...



So I was at a caricature gig the other day at a local college, and I found this thing that I completely forgot about. I posted about this almost a year and a half ago, and I was kind of suprised to still see it. The picture itself isn't that great because I had to take it with my phone and I really had to up the contrast in order to see it. Here is a link old post, and below a picture of the before for people too lazy to click a mouse.

Something interesting



Years ago I tried to work for this guy. I interviewed with him and he even had me work for a day in his studio with his artists, just to see how I worked out. I was super excited because I thought I was on my way out of theme park caricatures and moving up. During that trial day I thought I had done pretty well and made a good impression and all that. After the work day ended I looked for this guy to talk about what he thought about actually hiring me, but he was nowhere to be found. So reluctantly I left and called him the next day, then the next, and for about a week without an answer or a call back. Now I could understand not being hired, but I was upset over him just never taking my calls and just never speaking to me again. That's no way to get rejected for a job.

Yesterday a friend of mine sent me a link to a story on Cartoon Brew on this guy. After reading the comments on the Orlando Sentinel article, I realize what a bullet I had dodged. I hope all those artists I worked with, and that were so helpful to me on that one day, are working and doing well today. It's tough out there.
