more pink things

Pink pink pink notecard people


I drew many small pink girls last weekend. Drawing like this, all tiny and without thinking ahead, is fun. Normally I draw really fast and loose and doing this is new and weird.

Now it's time for ANNOUNCEMENTS!

Starting tonight, a new Skadi 5-parter is up on Dumm Comics. It's different from the last one we did with the cannibals...it's a lot stupider! I like it, and I hope you will too.


Another thing! I think I'd like to come out every now and then and add new prints to my Etsy store. I might compile all those star trek post-its from a while ago and make one. However, ideas would be appreciated! If I've drawn something that you think might look nice as a print, let me know! :)

One more!! My best girlfriend and fellow artist Christine has new prints, giclees, and original art on her Etsy. Her paintings have a level of spookiness on top of elegance that I can't ever imitate. Check it out!


OH WAIT there's one more thing...the second season of Mighty B will be airing on Nickelodeon soon! Pretty cool. I've never watched something I storyboarded on TV before. Once my episodes air, I'll be allowed to put up some drawings I did from the show. So come back soon!

Dirty pencil pictures

A couple nights ago I sketched some girls out of dirty 60's magazines while watching "The Tudors" with Luke. I don't draw with pencil very often because I'm less confident with how my lines look. These are more practice drawings than fun drawings, but I'll post them anyhow cause I liked how some of them turned out.


The cheap color job on that one above is just Photoshop. These are drawn on watercolor paper though, so maybe sometime I'll use these for paint practice!

The drawing of the lady with scary eyes is super wonky, but the model was so cool!!

I liked these yesterday but tonight I'm not so sure.

I like these though. :)

I'm taking a mini-vacation this weekend- Christine (she's in the comic I posted below) and I are going to Tahoe for our high school reunion. I hope some weird events will happen so I can do a comic about it.

I'm getting up at 5:30 so maybe it would be smart to sleep. Goodnight!

Not funny or cute

I'm not tired of drawing girls yet, but I really want to start doing real projects on my own- comics, shorts, whatever...and to tell the kind of stories I'd like to tell I can't just draw girls all the time (most the time maybe, but not all the time).

SO! Anyhow I found an amazing book filled with mugshots of old criminals from the early part of the century, and it really inspired me to try drawing some menfolk for a change!



I don't like that these are so realistic (compared to how I normally like to draw), but it really felt like I was 15 again trying to learn to draw. I've never been comfortable caricaturing something I don't understand, and man faces are a mystery to me, hence the weird shading and stuff.

P.S. This drawing is flat

I've been concentrating on drawing girls since I was a teenager...I started off drawing realistic and lovingly rendered drawings of Bjork and such, and as I got older added more and more girl shapes to the library in my head. Now drawing girls is something I do out of comfort, it makes me happy and calm! However...drawing men is like drawing in the dark. I don't have a library of man shapes. I can't make them up because I don't understand them yet.

P.S. It's hard to figure out unique eye shapes when in profile, at least for me

These ones above were from my first attempt. I was proud at first but now they look weird to me.

OH!!! Also, these are all profile drawings for a reason- profiles are easier to understand and draw (at least for me)!!! The shapes all come clear- how long a nose sticks out, how deep the eyes are sunken into the face, the shape of the chin. Of course you can make out most of those in a front view, but it's much harder to draw the volumes. Unless of course you're Jim Smith or something and can draw anything! I did some front views...they will not be shown here today!
>__<;



These ones above are my favorites that I did!! Oh, and as you can see I reverted and had to draw a lady mugshot. Hooray for short attention spans!!



A scary man who's likeness I didn't do justice at all...and a horrible drawing of a beat up lady that I got tried of drawing and didn't finish.


LASTLY!


Here are some shitty drawings done while eating dinner. I'm not sure these drawings were worth all the words I typed out. Actually I'm positive they're not- but it's good to try something new for a change! Thanks for looking!

OH ALSO
Here are two etsy stores you ought to visit! They will cleanse your eyes with nice colors and pretty pictures. If you like drawings of girls and interesting things, then you will like these!
