With thanks to my girlfriend for gifting me with even more Washi tape for this one! :-)

Figured I’d try my hand at something fan art flavoured for this one… namely in the form of my favourite tiny fictional character, Kirby! I can’t ascertain when exactly I became a fan of the Kirby franchise, although playing Super Smash Bros as a young boy may have something to do with that. Whatever the case, I got hooked on the pink (or blue in some cases) puffball very quickly!

Sandman going to bed after a long nights work of putting others to sleep. As an adult I love sleeping the whole night uninterrupted, thus sandman is my hero. White pencil and gel pen on black paper.

A large piece I did for a show in Kansas City coming up.

Weird things, that I come up with.This is just some of the stuff, I have doodled and/or done. I really love Ancient Egyptian mythology and was testing out my gold and silver paint pen. Sadly the pens both ran out of paint. :(

When I'm struggling to come up with a drawing, Lindsey draws me a starting point. It's a great exercise and so much fun.

Whales and witches.

We all fight our own demons but we don't have to do it alone. This is a thumbnail for a comic I'm working on.

Bob Ross wisdom time!

Experimenting with digital watercolor brushes.

I painted this when going through a very depressing and hurtful era causing me to feel very helpless and vulnerable. This was quit a while ago.

Another moody landscape. I wanted to work on water and light while using digital pastels. This is not AI nor is any part of this AI.

Creating in like-minded company is a blissful experience, that much is true! Boy I’ve missed drawing clubs… :-)

The monochromatic weekly challenge inspired me to do an eye study. I've been having a bit of a composition block and thinking about starting to sell at art fairs, so my thoughts are preoccupied. I wanted to keep practicing tho. Lemme know what you think. I used pencils, smudges, and liquify in Rebelle 6. This is not AI nor is any part of this AI.

I aimed to have the water look believable while painting a jellyfish with long flowing tentacles. Drawn digitally in Rebelle 6 w/very minimal effects. This is not AI nor is any part of this AI.

Often I am given to making marks on paper that reflect the objects I see coming towards me as I gaze out the front car window. I do this exercise as a passenger of course. The goal is not the end product, but the process of connecting what I see with motor control. The product is an indication of movement and energy. Give it a try!

I was going for a surreal and moody feeling—dystopian, sort of not. Per usual, my inspirations are pretty noticeable. I am starting to get more comfortable being stylized. I am trying to put emotion in my landscapes. I used Rebelle 6

This is a commissioned project for a feisty cat whom you could never take your eyes off unless you don't mind the after math.

Acrylic painting, made this while thinking about lighting bugs dancing on the waters surface and fish jumping out of the water trying to catch them during a full moon. It was a good memory; fishing on the lake at night.

Mix media, it was a fun project and is now hanging up just to make the walls look happier.

Acrylic painting that has the clouds that change depending on where the lighting comes from. Birds having fun on a Winter day.
