summer watercolor practice

an over due update

I've been neglecting this blog all year. Probably because I've been pretty content with my day-work at Nerdcorps. Here's some stuff I made

Some work from last year. This was the most fun summer of work imaginable. LOSE is a fantastic production to work on, I've never seen so much creativity in the hands of the animators. Every sequence you see in this reel was originally boarded as something different, and I was given the freedom to go wild and push things beyond their limits

2010 nerdcorps work

the delay between finishing an episode and having it released is about one year, so everything here is pretty dated. I will be posting some better stuff from my more recent work as soon as the new season of League of Super Evil is aired this spring

baby steps into water color

the subtleties of water color brush evade me, but water color pencil gets similar effect without the mess. Combined with black ink, the effect is pretty nice.

Here's some early experiments.

markers and pencil

went through a bit of a phase of flow of consciousness cartoons, just making lines to the music until stuff forms. Strange results from brush-tip marker and colored pencil. Lots of drawing over old pencil sketches.

enjoyable explorations of a strange subconscious

lifedrawing

finally got my ass back to lifedrawing for a sunday gesture session, and lucky me one of my favorite models was posing!

entangled

Based on some sketches from zeds dead, this is the first in what will be a series of increasingly disturbing psychedelic paintings as I focus on projecting the bizarre contents of my subconscious

Zeds Dead at Fortune sound lounge

This was a whole other level of concert. I've been to some sweet shows, but I was overwhelmed by Zeds Dead. Fucking inspiring.
