Anatomy Sketches

Here are some sketches I have been working on. Trying to practice the more traditional fundamentals recently. I am focusing on arms and hands right now.

Movie STill Sketch

This is just a practice sketch from Gosford Park. I used Painter X.

Forest Bunny

Hi, here is a night sketch I recently finished. I have been making a lot of custom brushes and papers in Painter X recently and so this is mostly an experiment in brushes. I didn't quite know where I was going with it and it ended up completely different then I started, but I like how it turned out. C&C welcome.

America's Greatest Threat?

Hi Guys, Margaret and I just watched this movie over the weekend. If you have seen "Supersize Me" it is similar to that movie but makes some different points. It really should be watched and shared. Here is the website if you want to watch the trailer and find out some more about it.

Intensity

Here is a new sketch. Just something that I was thinking about and wanted to get down. I was Kind of just messing around too. Have a good night everyone.

Body Snake !!

Laugh out loud hilarious. Enjoy

Swamp?Castle

Just Some doodling from imagination . Done in Painter X with some custom brushes.

Capt. Quint!!

Jaws was recently on TV, and I saw Capt. Quint, which I hadn't seen in awhile. So I thought I would do a painting of the awesomeness that is Capt. Quint (Robert Shaw). Done in Painter X with some custom brushes.

Football skills!

I love football (soccer) and I recently saw this video done for a promo. Features Christiano Ronaldo (one of the best players in the world) and Billy Wingrove, one of the best freestylers. Enjoy the Joga Benito (Beautiful Game)

Otter

Hi Guys, its been awhile since posting. Hope everyone is doing well. I've been a little busy working on some things. This is a night sketch of mine that rolled over unto this morning. Wanted to practice some water and wet fur. I will hopefully be posting more frequently. As always feel free to leave a comment or suggestion.

Stan bush and the 80's

Hi guys we went to a mixed tape showing of "Transformers: the movie" last night and it was awesome. I had forgotten how awesomely bad 80's stuff was. Guys from the movie show on WUAG 103.1Fm radio UNCG were there and gave out some prizes for Transformers trivia. The first two videos highlight Stan Bush and his contribution to the 80's and I believe that last one is not one of his songs but still an awesome part of the 80's. (p.s. I have a friend named Robert who has just gotten his own radio spot on WUAG on thursday 11am-1pm, check it out)

Num Num...

This is kind of a silly painting. My wife really likes Asian babies (never mind the cliche') and I was thinking that I don't have much practice drawing children so this was the result. Work done in Painter X. Let me know what you think.

Cameron's Day off with Seurat

Hi Guys, this was done after recently watching the 80's classic, "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". I was inspired by the character of Cameron Frye and wanted to make a painting based off of him. Done in Painter X. I hope you like, let me know what you think. Have a good day everyone.

Night Paddle

Hi Guys, I recently went on a night kayak paddle with my wife and Father-in law. It was the first time the park had tried it. There was about 22 or so people at the event. It was a perfect evening and although we could not see much, it was perfect weather and peaceful. The water was as smooth as glass and if you stopped and listened you could just hear the paddle dip into the water or the flock of geese wings flapping above you. The sky was magical that night with some beautiful colors in the sky. I wanted to sketch my impression of the evening. I can't decide if I like the one with the paddler(me?) or without. I hope everyone has a good day and if you want info on the night paddle contact me.
