People Sketches

Happy

Sharks

Illustrations I just did for BARKING SHARK CREATIVE.

Happy Valentines Day Lover

Two Valentine Cards for the love of my life...who, like the two character above is also not a myth, though I did cast a magical spell over her to convince her to marry me.

Buck Cluck meets The Tick

Just found this one I did several years ago for fun when working on the Chicken Little Video Game. (and those green and black jibblies at the beginning are just some sweet special effects that I added for a more magical feeling)

Groundhog...of course

In honor of the upcoming holiday- in conjunction with my need to be silly for no reason.

Jump Practice

A fun test that will never be finished. I lost the maya file after saving this playblast. Moving on.

Koala Bear

Nearly went extinct. Goes to show what a college education can do for a species.

Water Buffalo

Dentist

A recent commissioned piece I did for a dentist's office.

Snow Cone

After December is over I am ready for winter to be over. However, this little man in a cone can visit me anytime.

Yoda Claus

He sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good...Hello? of course he does -he's using the force.

Christmas Elf

...and something very clever on that piece of paper.

Thanksgiving Turkey

Adult life should include art projects for every holiday and kickball during recess every day.

Mel Milton, actual cartoon

My buddy Mel Milton.

UnderWere...Wolf

Keeping with the Halloween theme, here is my version of the werewolf.

Frankenstein as a Child

With the topic of Frankenstein I initially thought of drawing him as a kid...then I remembered he never was.

My friend writes books

Have you ever turned an Orson Scott Card short story into a novel? Aaron did. "Invasive Procedures" just came out. Very cool book -I just finished it. Intense.

This is a caricature I did of my best buddy Aaron Johnston a couple years ago for a birthday present.

She sure likes the goodies

Halloween. Hooray for gluttony and a 3 year old who will go door to door collecting wonderful treats for her parents.

Busted

This was my first time getting caught drawing someone on the highway. I can only imagine she would be pleased with the end result.

Rockingham

Two characters I did for the RC PMP FY06-07 for Rockingham County, North Carolina.

I say monster, you say munster

I know, I rarely draw monsters...again. These were funnier looking than the last batch so they deserved some color.

Mulicorn

Dear Rusty,

Son, there is something I need to tell you. You never knew your father and don’t even know what he looks like. I have enclosed a photograph of me and him from before you were born. I know he wanted to be there for you but just couldn’t…some day you’ll understand. Years ago he did ask me to tell you one thing. He said, “Son, sorry you only got the 63 chromosomes…you’ll never be able to reproduce and pretty much the family line stops with you. -Dad”

Call me sometime,

Love Mom.

(The Toonclub topic was "The Last Unicorn")

...

A quick biology lesson just in case:
A mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse, which is classified as a kind of F1 Hybrid. Mules are almost always sterile. The sterility is attributed to the differing number of chromosomes of the two species: donkeys have 62 chromosomes, whereas horses have 64. Their offspring thus have 63 chromosomes which cannot evenly divide.

Truckers

I knaw dat fiddy fah don comin rawn heuh, I's laik ...shoooooot.

More Animation Practice

Listening to this sound clip 5,000 times in slow motion only made me want to watch Napoleon Dynamite more.

Animation Practice

This was an animation test I did while I was making my yard and the game for Meet The Robinsons.

James Bond nothin...

Secret Agent Gramma.

a charming Hostess

La senorita bonita.

He always seemed like such a nice boy too...

Isn't it great that when a Killer Whale is eating a seal, he has the same facial expression as when he sticks his head out of the water at SeaWorld to kiss those people on vacation?

Burl Ives

One big happy man with a nice voice.

Old West

This was for the Avalanche Art Challenge this week.

more doodles that survived the daily trash run.

Here's the long and short of it...

This was one of those inside jokes that didn't actually have a joke.
