A few sketches from today's session. Wish they would do more gesture poses instead of 20 min or longer poses. I have a tendency to get bored quickly with long poses...probably comes from storyboarding rough drawings all day.

I brought a cow skull into art class for still life once. It hadn't quite dried out completely... after a few days it started to stink. I like to think there were still rotting brains inside...

Color is still a mystery to me...

Random Sketches/Swatches

2010-03-30T23:22:00.002-07:00

Went to see a band a few days ago and was sketching random people. Tried to draw Donald Sutherland from Invasion of the Bodysnatchers from memory... turned out looking more like Kurt Vonnegut in a red tie.

So my buddy Pen came up for a few days and crashed on my couch. His birthday is today...we celebrated last night on 21st street, hoppin' from bar to bar chattin' 'bout shit.

Did a quick color sketch while watching Charles Bronson kick ass in Death Wish.

I came across these recently. My brother and I formed a band back in my first year of college '98. I was going thru some shit at the time, it's funny to listen to the mindset I had way back then and how I used to handle things. We toured for a summer, an incredible one at that. Every time we'd walk into Kansas dive bars we swore the type of crowds would hate our music and eventually beat the shit out of us. The funny thing was by the end of the night we'd have em all dancing around, drunk of their asses, kickin their boots and having a great time.

We recorded these in the studio before we went on tour so we got better by the end of the tour, my other tracks are scratched, the ones my brother wrote. I'm off alot of the time as I was sick when we recorded and as cheesy as some of the lyrics are it's been really good to revisit them. Hope you all enjoy: Had to make them video files cuz this damn thing doesn't post MP3's; maybe I just haven't figured it out. Quality is a little poor.

You Don't Mean

This one's so bitter, but man it cracks me up! Starts a little slow but it picks up. High school romance.

More Than Ever Before

First attempt at something a little more serious. Haha, man I was F'n down in the dumps then. GOOD TIMES!!!

It's pleases me to know I'm not the same person I was back then. He was a good guy, just kind of a dick and bit confused.

Coraline is out on DVD!

A few boards from the first sequence I attempted on Coraline. Took out the dialog as its just selected boards.

Holga Pics- Lincoln City

2009-05-22T10:38:00.000-07:00

Went to the coast last weekend and snapped some Holga. Only B&W I had was 800 so it blew out on the beach. Fuji Color 400. Contrast and Saturation upped a bit in photoshop. And I realize that except for my Chucks all the photos are of two ladies. Nicole (see hungry hippo drawing a few posts ago) and Edwina (who actually is as pretty as she thinks she is. F-YOU FOOTCH!!)

Boyo.

New and old sketches from books. Apologies for the blurring of text. I use these things as a journal so lots of top secret shite in em.

I keep trying to draw Turnham...and I should just stop.

The guy on the right was having a conversation with whom I believe to be a work buddy. But as I was sketching I noticed he had what I assumed to be boner pants. Didn't draw those in as I was getting a little self-conscious, and he later noticed I was sketching him.
Sketch done in Life Drawing; my ladyfriend doesn't like the way I draw boobs. so I'm not allowed to draw her. (yet.)
As always started drawing piggies. And radiation babies being mauled by animals:

Couch park. (pronounced COOTCH, I just finally got used to that.) Yay, Portland!
Lincoln City, coast. Drawin' Mutt mutts on the beach.
Hawthorne.
Pooches: I have a tendency to draw animals in mid flight or launching out of things.
Mt. Hood, Meadows Parking lot. I'd sit and sketch while ladyfriend tears it up on the mountain. I don't really know how to snowboard.
Old Metzger sketches.

Here are two BG's I completed for an IMF-the international music feed spot. I prefer the wide shot though it's only on for a few seconds.

...and man... George C. Scott is incredible in Dr. Strangelove.

Bollywood and Bullshit

2007-10-29T20:40:00.000-07:00

and so Edwina and I spent most of the night biking and bar hopping around in our costumes ending up at the F-in' FUZZ for Bollywood which turned out to be bullshit...but anything's worthwhile in a costume. So I'm really supposed to be the gator from some russian animated short I can never remember the name of. (the one with that monkey-thing) But as I was trying to put this thing together it ended up more like a t-rex or some sort of lizard.
Ed's a narwahl. His horn was limp through most of the night (and so everyone thought he was a shark) until we found a stick and shoved it in there. He was sick most of the night so he was blowing snot all over the place, just like a dirty narwahl.
I had to lead the way as Edwienerschnitzel couldn't travel very fast. He served a good punchline as people would laugh when I'd zoom by chased by an opened mouth predator shortly after. To more bullshit am Mittwoch! EAT IT!

Sketching while watching Five Easy Pieces. Randy Quaid and the WHOOOOORESSSS!!

Ed ordered some onion rings at the Doug Fir and immediately regreted his decision. I told him they were going straight to his ass.

Stereo

2007-08-09T08:15:00.000-07:00

I've always wanted to do stereoscopic drawings and just never really sat down and tried to figure it out. There's some depth issues here but I've managed how to figure out separation of layers and not make them bleed into one another. If anyone one has any suggestions or reference material they could direct me to it'd be much appreciated. So this quick sketch took quite a bit of time to separate and it wasn't until later that I realized I had the colors switched from what's on the glasses. Don't know if it's always standard for Red on the left. So in viewing this image please place Red on the right eye.

Pschritt!
