Here’s a little guy! CHOMPS!! I haven’t had time to draw for personal projects, or much at all these past 2 years. But I did find an outlet that allows me to use my phone as an art tool, even with my big clumsy meat styli. I use procreate pocket to draw and animate #pixelart! #noai

You don’t need Adobe’s AI software to do turnarounds. I learned how to do it on the BAM animation YouTube channel.

So great to see Drew Struzan style illustration continue! I was similarly inspired by 80’s adventure movie posters when I helped design the poster for our little show: #wingfeathersaga

I wish I could take credit for these as a character designer, but we bought them at Target #peakcharacterdesign

Last of the in-class #digitalpainting demos for the color class! The assignment was to paint a chosen object from observation, borrowing the lighting conditions from a reference image (blues nightclub).

Iya singa de blues. Another in-class #gouachepainting demo from color class, the assignment this time: paint an object (mario figurine), borrowing lighting conditions from a ref photo of a different location, anticipating how it would affect your object. #mariofanart #nintendofanart #supermario

The next thing I had my students do was to digitally paint a very much enlarged version of their chosen object into the distant background of a chosen photograph. For my in-class demo, I used a photo from a trip my wife and I took to Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Scotland.

Here’s the #digitalpainting version of my demo from the previous post. The assignment was for my students to paint a chosen object from observation with the surface color and properties of a 🍏 (painted previously), to show the role that complementary colors play and how we perceive light and shadow.

After they were done painting 🍏 , my students next assignment was to transfer the color and lighting properties of their 🍏 to another small object of their choice, starting again with a #gouachepainting.

After having my students paint their apple in gouache, I had them render a #digitalpainting of the same apple.Same goal, to explore the role of complementary colors in our perception of light and shadow. this was my quick #digitalpaintingdemo . Obvs digital painting is much more my wheelhouse 😆

Other than a tiny bit of watercolor sketching, I haven’t so much as touched a tube of paint since College. I’ve been all digital since then. Imagine the fear when I was told I had to teach a color theory class where painting in traditional media was like half of it (as it should be).

At last, with #WingfeatherSaga S2 out in the wild I can finally show my first Fang of Dang! Greasle (orig. named Squattles) is a beast without yeast, a Fang who could have used some more baking time in the ol’ melding chamber. But he’s mine, and I love him just the same. #characterdesign

Another completely different #WingfeatherSaga #characterdesign : this was my take on the mysterious freedom fighter Gammon, who for mysterious reasons ALSO looked more like Inego Montoya, less like the Dread Pirate Wesley.

I’m glad #WingfeatherSaga S2-4 is out, because I’ve wanted to show my version of the Florid Sword #characterdesign for ages. These sketches were my take, but ultimately he wound up more dread pirate Wesley, less Inigo Montoya. But I like them, AND they did keep my #sworddesign:

#Characterdesign time! The client wanted a gnome mascot that was a combination of Ice cube and Stanley from The Office, but with a little bit more of a positive vibe than those 2. His name is Gnomey. I used #Procreate with @Dizzytara_art and @maxulichney.bsky.social brushes.

Don’t go killing me or anything, but one of my big bucket list items is to have my work featured in an art-of book, and here it is, just in time for Christmas! Also a big congratulations to all of my hardworking Wingfeather co-artists also featured therein! Amazing, amazing work, all y’all.

Slarbs! Another paintover/cleanup pass on a 3D character production model, specifically Wingfeather S1’s biggest meanie. These were done to create high resolution “hero shot” stills suitable for print and marketing purposes.

This is how I always thought (X-men) Cyclops’ gear could work, at least according to headcannon (get it) I've wanted to try my hand at redesigning him for a while, not sure why? I also always thought he would be more fun if he were a bit of a dork, hope that comes across.
