My Illustrated Alphabet letters were born out of a project in 2016. Each was drawn with pen & ink and each letter is illustrated with either an object, flora, fauna or wildlife that begins with that letter.

Gouache on Arches watercolor paper. I have been living overseas for 6 years now with my wife. (Originally from the states) We have lived in Seoul, South Korea, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Tel Aviv, Israel, and in the Summer we will move once again to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. So this is a painting is a sort of self-portrait.

"What's the Buzz"? Bringing old, discarded and forgotten stuff back to life!

This pen and ink drawing is in a poetry book.

"There's a North in us all, but my North can't hold me anymore." Oh man, what a day/week/month it's been. Today was the end of first semester, a bit hard to believe half the year is gone, a bit hard to believe we still have half of a year left. The past 24 hours have been nothing less than mental chaos (maybe my coach was foreshadowing all of this when he asked if I was ok last night...) Anyway, here I am, here we are.

I would have to say that my headphones are my constant companion. Music drives my working day.

I drew based on a photo. It became a little darker than the original. I drew as an exercise. Tools: Derwent graphite pencils ; Paper size: A3

Sharpie pattern doodle in a Moleskine sketchbook.

Done first using pencil and then added color in Photoshop. Angel Ganev's challenge on Instagram.

My first try at dip pen art. Found that it's cheap and there's less of an environmental burden considering disposable fine liners.

I doodled the cover of this sketchbook almost 2 years ago, and I'm dying to give it a second shot! To be continued...

Moleskine Doodle - September 2015

Small city doodle.

The lovely Leo. Drawn with 0.93 and 0.05 fineliners on smooth A4 cartridge.

Gorgeous little pug, another recent commission. Drawn using 0.03 and 0.05 black fineliners on medium cartridge paper.

Here is a doodle illustration that has been dumping out of my brain for a couple weeks.

Commission portrait. Gorgeous tabby cat. Drawn in black and white line using fineliner's.

The man with a vast red hat met a flower on the pad and asked, "Are you my dad?" The flower said, "No. I'm not the one, but I'll pretend I'm your dad if you'll pretend you're my sun."

Some crazy Moleskine doodles for the day. I haven’t been doing enough of these and really need to kick my butt harder. Not sure why because it’s so dang enjoyable.
