Drawing series continued

A figure drawing I did that came out really nicely, I wanted to throw it up here.

Old Fashioned Fun

The next part of my series of Noir-ish drawings, I'm getting more and more into showing danger and states of fear and panic. These are getting more fun and easier to design, I'm probebly going to keep pushing these drawings further, their really working for me.

Its Cold Out Here

Here is the next installment of the series of Noir-ish drawing im doing. I was trying to work on the over all environment of the drawing while still keeping the vignette design and feel of the last piece. I was going for a sense of space created by the two figures. Enjoy!

Noir

Edit: I decided to post just the black and white version as well

Heres a drawing I did for a class I'm in. I liked the look of the cross hatching and I liked playing around with all the white dark relationships. I through some color on it to see if I could enhance it a little bit. I think I want to do some more drawings like this. I like the idea of classic beauty and film noir is cool subject matter.

Fight the Darkness

So I've been working a lot purely on the computer. I figured I should work on some of my traditional art chops a bit. This is oil on Masonite. I'll admit, there is a touch of digital manipulation and painting, but only to clear up the muddy-ness as a result of the photography of the actual artwork.

Snow Fall

Just something I worked on as practice and a portfolio piece.

Poster Final

Here is the final for the poster design

Essentially, it would be a poster announcing the upcoming release of Angels and Airwaves third album (cant wait) all its says on their website is they are going to start recording January 09

The Agony and The Ectasy

here is the final book cover design for the book by irving stone

This Flesh, A Tomb

This Mind, A Prison

This is the first of a three part series of a more personal and close to my heart kind of subject matter. This one is about the hardships we all go through when trying to connect with those around us on more than just a cutaneous level. I like to work the surreal with the figures and I plan to do things like this more and more. The others are on the way. PRINTS AVAILABLE!

Here's a portrait of Tom cruise, who i hate, so I lampooned his ass. Also an old characiture of one of my heroes Mr. Colbert.

A book cover redesign, and inside illustration. I liked doing this one.

The Monkey King

Here are a couple of illustrations I did for the fable of the Chinese folk tale of the Monkey King. It such a great story, and I suggest you take a look at it someday, its worth it. Then when you do, these might make sense, but for now, just enjoy the imagery.

This is some more advertisement artwork. These three ads would potentially be for the retail store launch of the product line Aloette. I wasnt crazy about the project, seeing how its very "fluffy" but I really like the imagery and the how they turned out.

Heres a few things showcasing some of my advertisement design. The first is a graphic for a website, or possibly a t-shirt. The next is a magazine two page spread, then a bottom of a box for a board game I helped design, and finally a series of ads, which would appear in sequential pages as someone flipped through a magazine. They would most likely be off to the side. I like using my illustration skill to incorporate with advertisement design.

So, here is some stuff I did over the summer, both are oils the black and white on canvas, the color on Masonite. I enjoyed doing these two, both are from life, even the angle and demon , there up in the sky, you just have to look hard enough.

Here is a water color self portrait . I really like the narrative of this one. There is two said to every coin, and I am no exception.
