Above are two versions of the full image from the sneak peek of the waterfront. buildings, this time without photographic sky. I'd like to work more intricately with the window panes of them— maybe create some animations. Imagine the panes being even more kaleidoscopic, color-wise, and all shimmering and shifting— a transition from day to night, showing… Continue reading Buildings, again
Here is a sneak peek at a work in progress. It probably won't have a photographic sky in the final; we'll see. I was just playing with that. Anyway I like the kaleidoscopic colors in the window panes. That was my initial idea or point of departure: the way window panes facing or nearby the harbor catch light at different… Continue reading Waterfront buildings at dusk
Apologies! This was meant to post yesterday— the danger of three day weekends; one forgets what day it is. Anyway, I love this drawing! It's an illustration that I did (in ink) as a full page for a magazine layout project back in the day. It's my friends Kelley, Thomas, and Sean (but they were in the… Continue reading Ink works: art archive
I decided to make this into a finished piece. The Republic is collapsing under its own weight. Bernie for Caesar! (tongue in cheek, this, by the way)
I have some illustrations to do for a book ,and this won't be one of them, but I did this one anyway for fun. (One of the actual ones will be similar though.)
Here are sneak peek slices of the two illustrations. They are nearly finished (add ice to the drinks, refine shading of stripes), but the book is not, so the final reveals will be some months from now, maybe longer. That's all I can say. These were done using some woodless HB pencils that are new to… Continue reading woodless HB | 0.5mm 2B | 0.5mm gel ink
Tuesday was a BAMF TCB day. (That's acronymic for Badass Motherfucker Taking Care of Business day.) Today will be more of the same (because #deadlines, as the kids say). After a solid five hours of focused client work in the morning, I spontaneously went full berserker on the decrepit grout and caulking in my shower. I've been wanting to… Continue reading Sneak-attack home improvement
While in Baltimore last month, I went to Ellicott City, a little old mill town which is now is known for being quaint; antiques shops and cafes. I found (and bought) a children's book from the 1970s, one which I quickly realized I'd had as a child. It's one of the books that taught me… Continue reading A Book of Children’s Rhymes: illustrations
