A Few More Pages Done
I’m still working on THE FEW comic book series. Here is the rough and the panel art for the page I just completed. Issues 4, 5 & 6 are finished, but currently unavailable for purchase online.

Furry Lollypop Munchkin
I can’t exactly remember what the assignment was that had me create this little guy. It was probably just your typical Wizard Of Oz Munchkin Rodent holding a lollypop kind of job… the kind of work that always seems to end up on my drawing board. 🙂
Freshman College Project
I ran across these in a closet the other day. Back when I was a freshman in college, one of my first art class assignments was to dream up and create a “dimensional” story. This is all that’s left of that old college project, a few of the cardboard stand-ups. I remember I entitled it Pedro Perez And The Cosmic Taco Jockeys. As I begin work on issue seven of THE FEW sci-fi comic, it seems I have traveled full circle and am back at the beginning point doing the same sort of thing that interested me back in my younger days. Funny how life works.
Fuzzy Dice
That’s right… when I draw a spaceship it usually has a rear view mirror in the window with fuzzy dice hanging on it.
Embellishing Sermon Notes
How do I spend a typical Sunday afternoon in the fall? I take a picture of my Sunday Morning Sermon Notes with the camera on my Wacom MobileStudio Pro 16, pull that picture into Photoshop CC, plop down in a recliner with the tablet on my lap, lean back, get my feet up, turn on a football game and then I contemplate, ponder and meditate on my sermon notes… mainly during the commercials.
Work In Progress
Here’s a “work in progress” of a tiny bit of a much larger illustration I’m working on.
I start with a pencil illustration, add flat color to it and then render the image.
I like to leave as much pencil work in the finished illustration as possible so that the “fingerprints of the artist” are still visible. 🙂
Cataract Surgery
I just had cataract surgery on both eyes, so to give them a trial run I whipped up a creepy little leprechaun in honor of this weekends Notre Dame – Ball State football game. I live about an hour away from both schools, so I’ll be keeping an eye on this game… maybe two.
Digger
I’m not sure what’s digging holes in our backyard, but I’m pretty sure it probably looks something like this.
Drawing In Foreign Languages
Sometimes I do things in English… and sometimes I do them again in French. ha
Rats
Another fantasy football game TEAM concept.
Crayon Kids 04
Ok, the last one of these for the week.
Crayon Kids 03
Another one of the “crayon kids” …although this one is holding a paintbrush for some reason.
Crayon Kids 02
Here’s another one of those “crayon kids”.
Crayon Kids 01
Because of client confidentiality, I can never post work that I am CURRENTLY working on, I have to wait until the client publishes it first and by that time I’ve pretty much forgotten that I ever did it because I’m immersed in whatever my present job is… but I was reminded of some Crayon Kids I did a while back that I don’t think I ever posted… so maybe I’ll put a few of them up this week.
Orc Concept 2.0
Back to the concept drawing board…
