the Pit

Been a while since I posted anything, lately all I have had time for are short 1 hour sketches. I had made a new rule for myself....everything that I post from this day forward will be NEW...my goal is to force myself to continue to put out new work and not focus or dwell on work from the past. I hope you all have a great year and some great work to produce for 2013.

The Archer

I was watching the remake of "Robin Hood" with Russell Crowe, and got the itch to draw an archer.

I can explain

"Ok Mom I know this looks bad, but I can explain". I'm sure we've all been in this situation as a kid in one way shape or form. I wanted to do a portfolio piece from an interesting view point and well...I thought this was kind of interesting.

3rd Degree Black Belt

I finally finished the piece and gave the original to my cousin (he was speechless and thought it was a photo) and it now hangs in his office at his academy. scroll down if you would like to see some of the progress that led up to the final for this piece....comments are appreciated.

First stages

My cousin recently received his 3rd degree black belt in brazilian Jiu-jitsu so I decided to honor his achievement with a portrait. This is painted in acrylic.
