Gym Passes


I got these guys out of a credit card ad in a magazine. These were pictures from these peoples Gym passes. Perfect I said. .07 Lead still. March 07










Bald Britney


Our beloved Britney Spears. This one was fun. Its just a little sketch, but i tried to catch her appearance as much as possible. She made it easy on me and shaved her head for the picture. Still not as sharp as i want though. Mar 07

Big Pun


This guy was for fun, I tried to incorporate my newfound favorite style, but it was a little rough with Big Pun. I enjoyed doing this peace although there is something up with his arm. Feb 07

Rocky


I really liked this one, this was kind of a breakthrough sketch for me. The shading finally started to come out the way that i like. I did this one with a .07 lead pencil and so it was hard to get the crisp lines. This one started how I draw now. Feb 07

Simple Face


I need to get a better scanner, but this is one that i did late January or early Feb. It is actually a small child but I decided to simplify as much as possible. I like this one though, just simple enough.

3D Final

This was just finished today. I had a 3D animation essentials class this semester and this is my final project for it. I spent about 8 hours a week on it for the last 5 weeks. I still have alot to learn and alot to add on to this guy. I am thinking of one day animating him, but we'll see when that happens.

Faces


The face at the top might be noticeable to sports goers. Hes Dan Dierdorf. He has a classic nose and an everyday hardened football player look, i liked this one.

The next one was a Dave Malan Study. He is an artist at Avalanche studios and you can find his blog here
I loved the facial expression on the guy. Dave drew his version with a .3 lead pencil and i drew mine with a .7. You can definitely tell the difference in talent and tightness if you can find his version. I love his style

Jack and Jodie

You can probably tell who this guy is, if not then...well its Jack Nicholson. I thought that this would be an excelent picture for a drawing. The glasses are a little messed up but all in all I like the face. Feb 2007












This was was after Jodie Foster. I didnt catch her face in this one so I decided to change it a bit. I was starting to get the whole shading thing a bit from this point. Feb 2007

Old Dude


I was very pleased when I threw this one out. His hat can still use a little work, but all in all I like the old dude. I took him out of my photography text book. Jan 07

Mr. Van Dyke


This is Dick Van Dyke, a few months ago I was still developing my lines a little bit. with this one I made all of them dark. Not the prettiest thing I could have done, but I liked how it looked. Jan 07

A Few Faces


This is Zach braff of Scrubs and Garden State. I thought he had a very drawable face and wanted to do it. I liked out how it turned out but I think his nose is a bit small, yet again, a little sloppy on the lines.









Chris Bosh of the Toronto Raptors. This drawing is only about 3x3 so I really zoomed it in. I liked his facial expression and decided it would be fun to draw...and it would have if I had done it a bit bigger :)

Crazy Wife


My crazy wife! I decided to draw one of our many random pictures and I don't know why I liked this one. I drew this in January of 07. Back then I was still a little sloppy with my lines and I am still trying to tighten them up. Hopefully you'll see in the future how it is turning out.

First of many

This guy reminds me of a shick or gilette(sp?) commercial, just imagine him in the bathroom wiping deodorant all over himself. :) I drew this one back in January 2007.

New Art Blog

Here it is, my new art blog. Enjoy the stuff I put up here. Alot if not all of it is straight out of my sketchbook. I have been drawing all my life, but I am still learning. Tell me what you like, and what you hate. Help me be a better artist! :)
