secret drawings

2009 June 30

One reason I love Illustrator is that the workspace size is so big all around the actual image area that you can have a hundred things going on at once. Here are some things i did while i was bored doing other stuff. They were hiding all along the edges of other documents…. :) itscool A Rockabilly Angel, a bunch of Run DMC glasses wearing skulls and um a pumpkin. Random

Finished  a series of decks for Burial. theyre a really cool startup out of san pedro. the decks are inspired by 50’s and 60’s horror comics like Tales From the Crypt. Check out the Burial myspace and buy some decks from them. I’ll update again when these become available.  keep skateboarding grassroots!

Superhero Mural

2008 August 30

I’m doing a mural for a really great family. The young boy has super heroes all over his room. I would have cut off my toes for this room when I was his age. Superman, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Flash, Hulk, The Thing, Human Torch. I still have to go back and take final photos. These are all work in progress shots.

christina bought me a new sketchbook. its got really heavy paper inside so it can hold water without crinkling too much. oh boy! i got to sit around and paint a little

bit for myself. i miss just going home and painting now that there aren’t any big deadlines coming up. hopefully i can keep up a few drawings a day.
