spring cleaning

I decided to start my spring cleaning/gathering clothing to donate early this year...it feels so much better to have everything organized and separated by color. Now the real test is seeing how long i can keep this up!? :o)

Valentine's Day

here are some snapshots of our Valentine's day meal, it was a wonderful dinner with some great ladies. After our dinner we watched "Couple's Retreat" which is pretty funny, I highly recommend it ;)

It's a Snow Day!!!

...And I thought I was the only one who drew on myself...

sketches: Kids

Hey guys its been a while since I've posted anything and I wanted to stop by and post some pre-lim character sketches for my cut-out animation that I've been working on for a while. My animating is at a halt for now or at least until I can get my hands on a cintique so I've decided to focus on the production bible for the film instead. Hope you enjoy ;)

I miss you MAYA...

I thought I would post some of my 3D work since I hadn't up until this point, I haven't used Maya in such a long time because I need a new computer to be able to texture map and render everything. I have so many environments and characters in my head that I want to do but for now i'll stick to drawing and painting..lol, see you soon MAYA!



La Llorona: character design, based on some mexican art for my rigging class






Bo Bo: character design came from a random project in my Digital Cel class. I still don't know where the idea for him came from. He's a little creepy but his temperament is excessively nice. He has a buddy named Karl that i need to start/finish...lol





"The Factory" :just a project i've been working on off and on, aerial shot of the over all model. i usually don't work without a concept drawing but i literally just sat down and started modeling one day and that's what i got. Sooooo i still need to sketch the scene out so i know what goes where..

"Release Me" (Process 1: Line Work)

*copyright 2009

I'm almost finished with the line work for "Release Me", I've still gotta add the floral elements and tweak a few other things with her braid and her hair. I'm pretty please with how its come along but its taken a while since I'm always stopping work on it to do other work for clients. But once all the line work is completed I can go to the color process and start blocking it out. Stay tuned for updates

What inspires my artwork, you ask?!

Here are some of the things that influence my work: X-Men comics, Alphonse Mucha, Gustav Klimt,All things fashion, Asian architecture, mythology, imagery from my dreams (i keep a journal of the things i dream about), all things tribal and nomadic ;)
