New Character - Personal

Just doodling while on Thanksgiving holiday with my family. My Raccoon thief.

Character Progression

Interesting how characters take on shape. From a quick pencil sketch to get a conversation going to having read the story and hearing the vision of the writer. All that combined, with my artistic interpretation, lead to these final characters.

Digital Painting

I worked on this piece for a friend of mine. It was created to represent the way she wanted to remember her little girl, Madison, that passed away. "Love you to the Moon and all the Stars in Between"is what she would tell her every night at bed time. You have mom's favorite photo of her looking as if created by the stars. Some of them line up to Madison's astrological sign of Virgo.

Character Concept Designs

Working on a design for what I call the "Brain-o-Saurus". I think of him as a quiet, shy, unsure of himself, intellectual loner type. His posture reflects that with being very hunched over as well as moving slowly. He has the structure to be more assertive and intimating as you can see from the reaching posture.


Some other ideas I had. I hope to make a fully rendered version of the Dragon fly with all the particles and affects. The Camelback was just something funny I was thinking about and just did up really quick.

Digitally Rendered Designs

Well as many people know I am into Taz. I do alot of drawings of him doing things that remind me of what is going on in my life. I did this one to represent a lovely woman I was in love with.

I did this one representing how I felt for my 32nd birthday. Setup like one of those photo booths capturing different expressions.




This one is still in progress. It was one of the games we did at Presto called "F13".






Presto worked on more of its original IP called "Boing" and this is Taz taking out the competition. Still early on.

Still-life

I have always liked working on still-lifes. I prefer to work in black and white with different types of pencils. I have tried some in color but still need more practice working on blending.

I wanted to try something different. I started by using non traditional items as my model. Then I rendered out each object in the wrong size. If the real life object was bigger than the rest of the items I made it smaller and vice-versa.

Character Design Logos

A couple other characters I created to be used on logo designs

Architecture

Botanical Illustrations

I did a bit of Botanical Illustrations. That was pretty fun. I enjoy this type of art. Tried a variety of mediums. Pencil, Pen, using scratch board.

Litho Works

I did these Lithos back when I was in college. Pretty cool experience. It does require a lot of work but I still enjoyed it and would do it again.

Human Form

Sculpture

Back in College I was into sculpture. I started a series I called "Hand: Nature's Tool". I based it around the concept of a hand can do so many things or is used in so many ways. You use your thumb nail to try and unscrew something or use your fingers to scrap or use them to measure or hold something. I hope to continue this series in sculpture as well as take it to fully rendered models with lighting.
