Drawing with Splinters


I have been working with ink and tooth picks a lot recently in my sketchbook. These are the images I wanted to scan tonight. I have a ton I need to post soon.
This is what my process work, though process, brain, and life all look like. A big mess.
I have been working on developing a story for my first attempt at sequential illustration with a mini-grapic novel about my dating mishaps and all the losers I met along the way. I think it will loook a lot like the above images, stylisticaly at least.

Quickie

I found out 24 hours ahead of time I was putting a piece into a show at a bar here in Atlanta. The theme was "wood", but just to use wood in some way.
This was my work station at Richard's apartment.
Hanging my piece.

There it is. I call it The Blood Bunny Dyptic. It's for sale for close to what I payed for the wood. It's oak and it is beautiful. I came up with the concept because it was the day before Easter. I drew out the initial shapes, stained the wood, went to sleep woke up to draw deails, went to work, added color to the panels and hung them up the next morning. Concept to completion in 24 hours.Go see/Buy it at East Side Lounge. Richard Goodwin also has pieces in the show and it is worth the trip up there to see the stark contrast between our two thought processes, and they are hanging right next to one another.

Finished and Moving on

Elli's Promotional Material.

Inside spread, CD, and Booklet Cover.

In my hands...finally.disk makers did a great job with the album printing, they are very hands on and professional.
overnight prints did the business cards and post cards. their printing is good, they shipped my business cards to glendale, california and it took me almost 2 weeks to get them.
I took a chance on a new poster printing place called digital room and they did a brilliant job.
