Blue Girl

Here's a character design from a previously referenced un-produced feature project. I like figuring out color schemes for characters and trying to get the costume to play well with the character. This was loosely washed onto a rough pencil sketch on Bristol Board.

The Ghost

Here's a small painting done for a charity art auction from some time back. Still messing around with the black trees.

Happy New Year

I Don't Draw Like This

I know people who do this style really well. This was my first stab at this kind of broad color swatch way of doing a caricature on a Cintiq tablet. It was kind of fun to try on such a non-intuitive way (for me) of painting.
I'd like to try this style with real paint sometime.

Taste

An odd little painting from a couple of years ago.
Probably the start of the red ground idea that I tend to revisit over and over. This one is extra red which makes the eyes itch and plunges viewers into an inexplicable blind rage.

Battle Zoe

Here's a self-rejected piece that I did not submit to the I-Am 8 Bit show this year. I just wanted to paint a cute girl and she's somewhat halfheartedly incorporated into a broad interpretation of the classic Battle Zone game environment. It's not really a painting, more of a painted sketch but I post because I sort of like the colors and the girl. It was fun to do but ultimately not something I envisioned hanging in a gallery.
