animals.

this is a series of drawings i've been doing on and off for nearly two years. most of the drawings never make it past the rough sketch stage. sometimes that's because i think the combination of animals is going to look hilarious, until i start to draw it and realise it doesn't.

i tend to have a pretty prolonged drawing method. i'll sketch up what i want to do, if it's complex i'll draw all the individual elements seperately, then combine them, then draw and re-draw it until i'm happy enough with it to produce a final artwork. i'm sure that if my analogue brain would allow it i could complete this much faster on the computer.

these three are the final sketches completed before doing another final drawing for each. of course i didn't think to actually scan any of the final drawings before giving them to the friends/family they were intended for.

when it pains... he draws.

i know you're laughing. seriously- how can you look at this bear and not smile. and if you know the band, and their original art, you can't not think this is hilarious. or maybe it's just me.

this is a preliminary sketch for an upcoming t-shirt for poison city records. maybe. have to show it to the boss first. but really- is he going to say no to this? would you?

cat cut-outs

upcoming t-shirt design for a rather awesome band. it's no accident that the cat looks like indy. it still surprises me that the cat has two fangs. dental symmetry is something that has never really interested me.

bad teapot

just about the funniest juxtaposition i could think of. or not, when you think about it.

ada

this was a rough sketch created from couple of photobooth photos (the ones i keep in my wallet). not a great sketch, but it looks like her.

leaving town

this outline sketch became the poison city tour records tour poster for 2010.
