Unused Toolbar

I whittled a collection of fruit and veg for my nephew. All hand carved from basswood with a Carvin’ Jack knife and lightly finished with a smooth sandpaper to preserve the faceted look of the knife cuts. Main body colors were applied with an airbrush using Vallejo Model Air paint. Details painted on by hand with brush. First real foray into carving and will be doing lots more.

Legends of Rock #04 - Ringo Starr

It's Fab Four week here on the blog! Kicking it off with the man behind the kit (sometimes the mic).  So much has been written, argued, plum made up about The Beatles, I'll keep it short and say they're a pretty big band, and Ringo did well as the backbone.

(these will be available for purchase once the whole set is released on my shop)

Hair Brain

I believe my hair is gaining majority control over my brain.  Evident after shampooing twice this morning, one application on top of the other, already lathered and shaped to my daily specifications.  I need to haircut shop.  Which celebrity’s photo should I take to my lady?

Starting a new project that catalogues the main villain from each X Files episode: X-Villainy. Starting from season three since that’s what I’m on currently, but I’ll eventually get to them all.

Season 3 Episode 1, in which the Well-manicured Man is introduced, member of a secret society of powerfully shady men. Guy definitely has some pull, and his alliances come into question, but remains a pretty bad dude, working with the Smoking Man and all. 

This is part of an ongoing project to catalogue the villains from the television series X Files. Check out the others here!

Birds of Brooklyn Update

Still at work on the poster of the common birds of Brooklyn. This is where we stand at the moment. The plan is to do 15 birds for this poster, and 15 more for the rare birds version. This frequency rating is based on the Prospect Park Audubon’s statistics and my own wandering through my home park. Very excited to get this one wrapped up and printed!

This MLB postseason has been a stressful time for Orioles fans (and all others for that matter). I've taken to drawing O's logos while I listen to the game to reduce my freakouts. I think they should randomize the birds on player's hats. One bird a piece! Dibs on angry baby-bird. If you're interested in the logo history, check out this awesome post.

Been working on early stages of an ABC book. All pretty goofy alliteration with some fun animals. Twenty six is a lot of letters...

This is an alternate look for the upcoming art for DJ Lani Love's new summer mixtape. In this version, the text for Lani Love is large and interacts with the front row of trees. I really liked this treatment but also have to admit that Ms Love was right in requesting a smaller, more cohesive nametag down at the bottom. Final version coming soon.

Our dog Frankie.

Truck Repair

Pixel art out the wazoo, folks.  It’s gonna keep coming, so I hope you like it.  I do.  Here is a little something I made for a website in case it went down… which is kind of a bummer, so I tried to make it fun.
