Leon going snowboarding with a llama.

Leon asked me to draw his caricature... snowboarding and llama themed. I did it digitally for some reason. I decided 'on a chairlift' was the best bet. It allowed me to be clever and put the year in the chair number spot. I also had fun drawing snow lumps on the tree... that you can only see in the full size one.

 

here's the full image:

Narnia

Its loads of fun to draw while watching movies. Personally I will watch for a while and figure out the caricature before i start to draw... it makes it effortless when I put pen to paper.

Llama.

I'm working on something that will have a llama in it... a somewhat odd request, needed to figure out how I would make it work. So i aimlessly drew some llamas today. I like this one hes got attitude.

digital painting in the middle of the night

I couldn't sleep last night, so I started digital painting...
First I drew this simple noseless caricature of myself.

Then I decided to render it... and add a nose. Eventually my tablet driver stopped working so I went to sleep.
 

The next morning I decided to change the lighting and the expression...

moar doodles

This is my dog Molly, most of the time she is completely insane.

crazy eyes.

 
I really like drawing people who are playing music, especially the ones who are singing. their enthusiasm is fun to capture. On the down side, I was drawing this almost entirely in the dark. I need one of those little lights with a clip made for reading in the dark.

 
I really enjoy these super simple doodles, I like using few lines and drawing them just once.

I have these orange post-its on my desk.. cause post-its are useful. sometimes I draw on them.

Floppy Disk

I should get in to the business of selling floppy disk art coasters. 
This one is... uh... blue. Blue with some stuff.

really windy

Logically, any landscape existing on a skateboard would be really windy. What with all the moving forward and junk.
I actually finished this about 3 weeks ago. I was going to wait until the person for whom it was made saw it before I posted it... but as that still hasn't happened so I thought I might as well go ahead and post it.

Eat, Sleep, Ski... Draw.

I just returned from British Colombia where I skied at Panorama and Revelstoke, and yes it was beyond amazing. As I spent most of my time skiing and the rest of my time lying on the floor from my exhausted muscles, I didn't do much drawing on my trip... being me however, i certainly did some drawing.
I stayed at my aunt and uncle's cabin, and my cousin and her kids came for a couple days. I drew a caricature in my sketchbook of the kids.
some other drawings of the kids:
 
 

At the airport waiting to board the plane someone had a tiny dog in a bag.


a photo of me skiing.

Octopus vs Robot

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.
