Figure Drawing

A friend and I attended a lovely figure drawing class in Palo Alto yesterday. I missed figure drawing! It's amazing how rusty you can get after a couple of months -_-;

I think the above sketches were 2 mins each?

Reid Hillview Airport, San Jose

Today I joined the SCWCS Plein Air group for some sketching at Reid Hillview airport down in San Jose. Fun day! Who knew airplanes are so fun to draw??

Aquarium sketches

Sketches from the Monterey Bay Aquarium last Friday. Their new Tentacles exhibit is great! Lots of fantastic cuttlefish in there - I could seriously watch them ALL day.

Song of the Quarkbeast: Blix

Recently re-reading Song of the Quarkbeast by Jasper Fforde. What a fabulous series the Last Dragonslayer books are! Couldn't resist trying to design some of the characters....here's The Amazing Blix.

Hakone Gardens

Just did a plein air sketch day at Hakone Gardens down in Saratoga. Fun day and beautiful location! The Cherry trees were in full bloom and there was so much bright foliage to draw....I decided to focus on the buildings instead (because I just can't resist some awesome Japanese architecture).

Love Is In the Air

Feel's nice to sit down and spend some time on an illustration finally! I did this piece in the hopes that I can get into a gallery show.

Aaaaand here it is, my finished Dr Who piece for the upcoming Meltdown Comics gallery show in LA on November 1st!
