This is the second skate deck.
This was my train of thought to come up with the idea:
Since the first skate deck was fire, the second one should be water... octopuses are under water, and treasure chests... you know what would be funny, if an octopus opened a treasure chest, and there was a robot inside that started shooting lazer beams at him.

Sketch Jam and some other stuff.
Went to the Sketch Jam and hardly drew anything. I was too busy catching up with everyone and generally having good times. So I added some other drawings to this post that I had in my sketchbook random other times and places.
this is Zub blah blahing... his reaction to this drawing was pretty funny...
The theme this jam was "festive zombies" I didn't submit this or try at all... previously winning the jammy 'n everything... I thought it would be funny that rather then attempting something epic, I would draw the lamest festive zombie I could think of: the tacky Christmas sweater zombie.
"NOG!!!" was not really part of the original plan rather what my brain decided festive Christmas zombies would say instead of "BRAINS!!!"
The pose and the design are super weak.. I feel like I should give it another go sometime and try at least a little.
Sometimes you see a guy with a huge nose and you just need to stop whatever you are doing to draw it.
Doodles done at breakfast New Years morning of some guys sitting wayyy across the room. First doodles of the new decade.
Some lady in the subway. I loved the interaction between shapes in her face.

Betty on Fire.
Simeon commissioned me to paint on his skate decks. I was given artistic freedom so I illustrated the the death of his car Betty as it was engulfed in flame... I also made the fire glow in the dark.

Dr. Sketchy's Toronto
Went to Dr. Sketchy's yesterday and I won with this drawing. It was a 5 min pose and i spent some break time cleaning it up.
Below are a couple other drawings from the evening a 1 minute pose and a 5 minute pose.
Dinosaurs at the ROM
I went to the ROM on Sunday to draw the dinosaurs. My drawings felt stiff for the most part, but that might be because bones on their own are missing the fleshy weight that I enjoy so much. So my favourite drawing of the day was of this little girl. She was intently pointing out to us where the dinosaurs were. She did this several times and I quickly jotted down her likeness and posture committing the details of her wardrobe to memory. I drew the final drawing over dinner.

Piratey Love.
Watch as this pirate professes his undying love for you.
Most pirates say "Arrr!" but not this pirate, no, not this pirate.

I drew Seiler again..
There's this contest on the interwebs... caricature Jason Seiler the winner gets a caricature by Jason Seiler...
At first I thought "I already drew a caricature of him..." but then I thought "... I could draw... Another!"
This took roughly an hour and a half. I am rather happy with the hat texture. I think im startng to figure out this digital painting thing.

Dr. Sketchy's Toronto
I just returned from Dr. Sketchy's I really liked the model's costumes this week. I mean seriously: pirate, little red riding hood and flying monkey from the wizard of oz.
The one below is from the last time i went about a month ago... I had cleaned up the drawing a week or so later and never posted it....

In the works...
I decided the other day that I needed a new profile picture for facebook so I started this digital painting of myself. It's still in the works... it is actually cropped to hide the extremely unfinished lower half...
