NON-COLOR CORRECTED
COLOR CORRECTED
Here is the first time shooting and editing. I got it to work on youtube as well. It is a bigger size which is nice. CHECK IT OUT.
I know it is really dark. I tried using a color correction preset. I will post the original video later without color correction, it is much brighter.
So here is my take on “strong”. Man I wish I didn’t have a regular job so I could spend more time on these. I like the idea of having ridiculous circus acts. I may go deeper into creating more and more ridiculous ones just because. I am doing a watercolor version of this piece at home…I may post that when I am done. I’m just so slow at using watercolor. Oh well…between playing BEATLES™ ROCK BAND™ and watching Beverly Hills Chihuahua I was able to come up with this!
I wish I was lying about watching that movie!

So here is my new one. I got the idea right away for some reason. I have had my share of pouring salt on snails. I don’t remember enjoying it, well maybe a little, I mean come on, you hold the POWER OF LIFE in your sweet little, chubby, booger coated fingers. Who would have thought something so enjoyable on eggs could be so so deadly! And really who was the first kid to do this…and how many other things did he/she pour salt on before hitting the JACKPOT!!!
As for the coloring i have tried to stay away from digital coloring. I find that having SO many options actually makes it more difficult. You don’t have to think as much, and for me I need all the thinking time I can get! But for the sake of time I colored this one digitally…hopefully back to traditional next week!
So I decided that I should maybe start drawing again…I mean, I did go to school for it. But now that I live the life as a “designer” I don’t get to do much drawing or original art. This made me realize, now that I am an old man I need to start doing the things I like to do….like drawing, picking fights with toddlers and ballroom dancing. Here is my quick piece on “wrapped”.

Here are some small watercolor paintings I’v done, Im new to water color so these are somewhat of a test as well!

I had the opportunity to do a piece representing “Childhood Memories”. I haven’t painted in such a long time so it was really fun and challenging at the same time. It is 11×17 and done in Cel-Vinyl. I am in the mist of creating another much smaller piece for the show..stay tuned!

So Comic-Con came and went and I did a little book about the 80’s. It was fun to relive all the stuff from the past. My Wife and I watched some 80’s movies to get inspired and man some of them were rough! Some lived up to how i remember them, like Gremlins and Harry and the Henderson’s. Brave little toaster..not so hot. Anyhow here are a few selections from the book!
Happy New Year!
I haven’t done this (Illustration Friday) for a while and I didn’t really have time to color so i did a quick pass at it. This idea just kind of stuck me as funny! I remember as a kid I would do this and pretend I was flying. Until the day my face got too low and it slid on the dirt below…that was not fun! This makes me think about how now a days parks are WAY to kid friendly. What ever happened to Dirt, Grass & Asphalt. You know stuff that can hurt you but not kill you. Now the ground is all rubber and the play sets are plastic…back in my day they were metal. Remember sliding down a HOT metal slide…man those were the days!
Well here I am once again, this week was kind of hard. I have been sleep deprived and just overall slow going. I got this idea from my girlfriend Vanessa…She suggested the guy from Alice in Wonderland smoking! So once again I did most of the work during my lunch hour from work. I have been working on my coloring skillz, I’d say it is my weakness but I will keep pluggin’ away at it until I get it right.
Thanks for everyone who comments, it really helps!
Well it is that time again! Here is my idea for Illustration Friday. I changed the composition a few times and am trying new stuff with color…Like coloring the lines and not just leaving them black. It been such a challenge trying to do these between work and all, but in the long run it really pushes me to be creative and not just go home and sit in front of the TV!
