Pals

It has been awhile since I've posted anything. Life has been super busy. Here's another sketch that proves that I existed at one point in the universe. What are they looking at? Whatever it is...you can be sure that it's serious.

Another fighter steps in........

so angry!

More Rough Sketches

I’m addicted to soda. It tastes so good and I feel so alive for that half hour or so before the crash. It goes so good with burgers, pizza, and other various junk foods. I feel tired and bored when I don’t have it. It’s bad for you teeth, breath, and health. Gonna ease off of it and get the addiction under control.

I found that the random background elements somewhat help the composition so I left it. Overall I was just too lazy to erase it and think of something to fill the background. The bottle is a little warped. There is lots of incomplete stuff to learn from. But it’ll do as a rough sketch for now. Shaky Thumbs Up!

“Where’d our shoes go?”

“I dunno. But it’s neat that we’re sitting on thin air.”

More drawing for 11/2007

I want to paint this one someday. Now that I'm looking at this, I don't think I like the girl giving off the typical quiet, introverted, innocent vibe. I'll probably switch roles and have her be the "talker", saying something deep and insightful, while the guy listens with adoration and discovers similarities on outlooks of life.
Ali vs Frazier. I found a picture of this and had to draw it. I don't know which bout this is in their trilogy of fights, but the pose of Ali is just so "Ali". And by that I mean the it is elusive, quick, cocky, confident, and full of ego. "Missed me, Sucka!"

Frazier is probably thinking, "You got away from that one, but I got more surprises for you."

These were fun.

Character Coloring

This was to learn more about painting. I had fun. In the future I need to pay more attention about posing and expression to show character. I wanted this character to have a strong upper body that he could use to "monkey" himself around casually yet appear fast on his feet. Just like those competitors on that "Ninja Warrior" tv show.
This is the original sketch. I lost some of the energy in the colored piece that is in this drawing. I have an idea of how to keep it for the next time I paint.

Buddha

My attempt to relearn how to paint. The process was tedious, but I learned a great deal. Color and form are tricky.
