Sign Of The Times Page Two Proposal

I finished up page two! Things took a turn in a way I didn't expect, but it's very fun! I was planning on doing MOST work on the paper, but this particular page worked out to be a lot of digital manipulation. I expect some photos will require it and some won't. I can nit-pick until the end of days, but I told myself I had to finish it in one day, as it is just a proposal page. Watercolor, Copics and Prisma pencils.

Sign Of The Times Page One Proposal

I finished up a whole page today! This is my vision for a graphic novel for the band Circle Of Signs. Currently this project is in the proposal/see-what-you-come-up-with stage. Watercolor, Copics and Prisma pencils.

Harry Potter & Draco Malfoy: Final Version


The final version of the Half Blood Prince movie poster. I didn't nit-pick (which normally I would.) This drawing is 11 X 13, which is less than a third of the size I normally work in. I love BIG paper! ;) It was a bit of a challenge to draw so small after years of HUGE portraits. Fun. Hope you enjoy my drawing for todays release of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince! Now go see the movie!

Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter Work In Progress 2


I have a bit more shading done. Mouth needs tweeking; Malfoy has yet to be drawn.

In anticipation of the new movie Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, I've been inspired to draw a portrait of Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter. It's not done, but here's about half way:

Work In Progress: First Watercolor Rendering


Here's my first watercolor rending of my ideas for a comic book. I've grown pretty attached to the characters. Strange. ;)

Drawing Tutorials!

I came across these AMAZING drawing tutorials last night. There's a bunch of them, and I've watched at least a dozen. They're all great, and I can find something in each of them. The artist, Kathryn Hagen, has several books out, relating to fashion design.


I love the use of mixed media. She throws a little of everything in her drawings!
Check out her YouTube tutorials.

Comic Book Tattoos

I'm making the push. I'm up very early. I'm inspired, which is a great feeling. Until the lack of sleep catches my toes and makes them drag.

My comic project is for the band Circle of Signs. I don't know if they'll use what I create, but I have a life swimming around in my brain. To be born. It will be a life for me, even if it's not what they're looking for. I'm very excited to dip my toes into new territory. I suppose tattooing is a bit like comic/graphic novels in some ways. Maybe I'm underestimating the works I've already done. I suppose something has to lead me to this path. Now let's get those toes moving and speed down the avenue!
