Scotland sketch

just doing random sketches and this time i did scotland and his blantently obvious distaste for anything breathing or humanlike. jk scotland! i used to work with him and listening to him banter on about endless subjects of which he seemed to have an endless knowledge of, kept working with him always interesting.

Jaci

my friend jaci and her family. spent a total of four hours on everything including sketches. could have gone further and was going for a more painterly effect until i gave up and slapped the sketches on top instead. 

SAD!

so this is lame. already im reduced to posting old sketches. its not like ive been super busy but for some reason just cant bring myself to sketch lately. a blank page isnt looking so intriguing these days. these will have to do. my SAD sketches are just that. SAD!

SAD#2

eskimo whale rider. watching some thing on eskimos during a lunch break at work. and more sharks. these are whack but the only sketches i did today. peace!

shark week yo! SAD#1

so here is the start of MY sketch a day(S.A.D) attempts. ive seen blogs around doing this and I know people who do it every single day and i just need to follow suit or forever be lost in the sea of average to not so good artists. Shark week is nuts!

What America means to me...

Aaron brothers art and framing marketing illustration. 

My America is beautiful, and gives me the freedom to reach for the stars...

Her hands are delicate to the touch but firm enough to hold the burden of millions.

She is my refuge when the weather is too strong and my comfort when no one else understands. She is my first love and last to see me leave this world. She is my country, my shield and my home.

Im getting married!

so on may 16th me and my beautiful fiance are tying the knot. it came pretty sudden so i didnt have a long time to come up with the invites but here it is. lots i couldve changed but just went with it. it had a sheet of vellum on top with writing it looked pretty good i think. 

couple sketches

so here are a couple sketches and i know what your thinking. thats kinda creepy the kids crawling all over a half naked chick. let me explain. a friend who did some modeling (usually half naked to naked) asked me to draw her modeling with her kids crawling all over her so its not me being pervy or anything. im gonna color it so stay tuned!

the circus show

the following are some pics from a show me and some friends participated in for fun downtown last night. the theme was circus and we all had a lot of fun hanging out and seeing what everyone came up with. sadly i wasnt able to get pics of all the other great stuff because my camera broke mid-show and was too shaky to take photos.

Christmas Card in progress

This is my attempt at a christmas card for my folks to send out. Its not finished its still missing a guitar case full of coal. When i was younger my dad thought it was funny to wrap little presents in a bigger box the shape of whatever we really wanted that year. I took that idea and went with this. so the boy will have a guitar case opened with a bow on it but its full of coal and then obviously behind him his parents really do have the guitar as my parents always did after having a laugh at my expense. im not so sure the illo illustrates this idea well enough even after i put the guitar case in so im not sure ill give them this but who knows.
