I am hungry.

Three quikies; frogs, all looking in the same direction... from photographic reference.




^This guy was supposed to be a caricature, butttt he looked too much like the original (a horned frog).
^This guy made me laugh at the time, but I think I was losing what made the original image so funny.

FROGS ARE COOL!

Something smells........ like shoes.

Do people not leave comments on blogs anymore? Gosh darn! I'm outta the loop again.

Let's Rock n' Roll!

^An intelligent artist would have started out with a line of action, and possibly a gesture. I started with the head.

^Frenzy Cat
^Space Cat

That drawing was bad! I deleted the post that used to be here, and replaced it with the following:

^Ryan was drawing a bucket one evening... so I did too. Inspired by playing not enough MegaMan 9.

^A poor drawing, but it makes me chuckle... so it's not really that bad of a drawring, is it?


^Gribbit with a 'stache. hehe^Trying to figure out some Critter construction...^Trying to redesign BoltMan for a little sompthin' sompthin'.



PS: Cave Story is an awesome game. It's coming out for WiiWare sometime soon!! Woohoo!

PPS: A bubble tea store is finally opening up here -- and on the way to work, too!

I am cooking Spaghetti

^ A quickie. I was going to paint this guy, but I instead decided upon a Photoshop filter. Now I'm a real artist!



Lots of floating heads... all facing the same direction... Again, I'm sorry!

Hey Guys, How's it Goin'?

It's been a nutty few months. My excuses for not posting are good... trust me!


^ Way old horse drawings that I found.^ EarthWorm Jim, obviously not my character. The new Interplay website had some of Doug TenNapel's recent EWJ redesigns up for a bit. They were really cool!


Sorry for the cruddy drawings.

More old doodlesss

^ I was telling my old beloved roommate, Mel, about this fly character I have. I was thinking of him as being big enough to smoke cigars, but she was thinking of him being so small that he could only smoke cigar butts!
^ There's a lotta problems with this sucker, but I still really like the drawing. There's something good going on with it.
^I must have drawn this guy really light, because I didn't know he was there until I accidentally scanned him! I don't know why I didn't work through the drawing, and finish it. I love how his cheek is squished up against his cigar. It's kinda cute, even if he's addicted to smoking!

^Gribbit... I think I was working on making a younger version of him. Definitely not what I want, but I think it's a funny

Do you ever feel like you used to draw better than you do now? It has a lot to do with how you were thinking while drawing. I've been in many different places in the past twelve months. Here's some more from my last doodlebook!

Four Month Old Sketchbook Doodles

My girlfriend has a plush dog, and I draw it.


Also, ^this frog was something I drew in another friend's birthday card. She seemed to like it, but I wasn't really digging it. It was originally done with markers (lines in brushpen), and the colors were so saturated that they killed my eyes. I liked it a little more in grey, but... I'll probably be embarrassed by this drawing in about a month!

The drawings in this post were lined with ebony pencil and brushpen. Brushpens are cool.

Yeeehaw!

I bought a Cintiq 12wx! I love the size! I hate how my lines get shaky sometimes, but otherwise, this thing is AWESOME!


Now, to learn how to draw, and put 'er to use!

More Gribbit

Ugh... what was I thinking when I rendered this thing? I'm going to have to go about it a different way, I think. Until then, here it is.

This is going to be for my Dad's lovely wall of 'accomplishments'. He has recently started framing and hanging pieces of paper which represent his children's 'accomplishments'. I don't consider anything I've done academically to be an accomplishment, since they're all something I HAD to do while growing up. It's embarrassing to be represented that way! So, I decided to make some pieces that I can hang up on his 'accomplishments' wall instead.

But, this needs some major work before I'm going to be happy with it. haha

Oh, and here's a little extra something:

Not dead yet!

Not a lot of free time, either!

So-Long, Oakville!

A drawing that says "Hello" for an event which is clearly "Good-bye!"

Here's some caricatures given to me before my departure. (I hope you guys don't mind me posting them!):


From my very best Oakvillian pal, Amir (toonamir.blogspot.com)
Amir nails me every time! My soggy-lipped overbite is amplified to almost-realistic proportions in this drawing! If only I actually had a hat like that! The pants and sandals are dead-on, though. hardy harrr!


From my very best... ummm... From my very best Pete Emslie! A man with charm and cartooning skills far above my own! (cartooncave.blogspot.com)
Pete somehow made me look younger and prettier than the mirror does. Way to go, Pete! Maybe I can score some chicks now! I know my Mom will like this one! (Right Mum?)


From my very best HongKongese pal, Lettie (lettielo.blogspot.com)

Haha This one was doodled in the corner of a fabulous card she gave me with a hug. Lettie Lo, you're a genius! Let's go on an adventure someday!!

Thanks guys! You warm my heart! =)

Phone Doodles...

... in good ol' MS-Paint.

Peter Emslie!

HEY FOLKS! Want to see Peter Emslie draw a BABE? Head on over to Amir's blog where he has an exclusive video of Pete sharing his drawing process. MAN, that Peter sure makes it look easy!

And then head over to Pete's blog and check out his other great artwork. Don't forget to tell him how cooool he is! (not that he needs you to tell him)

Enjoy!

Massey Hall and a little other

I had to run an errand in town today, which happened to be on the same street as Massey Hall. I happened to have my camera with me, so I decided to take a stroll over to the beautiful old building. Faaaarig! Now I'm twice as ticked off about not having tickets for any of Neil Young's THREE shows there later this month. HOW could something like this happen to me? HOW!? WHYYY!?!??

Well, I don't claim to know anything about photography -- I just like taking pictures. Harshly honest and constructive criticism is required from photographers, please! Everyone else: Shuttap and tell me you like it! Hardy harrrr!

Enjoy! =)
