Bundyland - Willamette Week

Had the opportunity of illustrating the cover for this week's Willamette Week newspaper up in Oregon, covering Ammon and Ryan Bundy - "Two devout Mormon brothers have created a fantasy camp for commandos in Eastern Oregon." Big thanks to AD Julie Showers for the job.

Some of you might know I’ve been dealing with Topical Steroid Withdrawal for like 2 years now (month 21 yay). I made a ton of progress, my skin isn’t nearly as terrible as it was this time last year. So here’s to shedding red skin, healing up, feeling better, and getting over this intense hurdle. My hands are still itchy but I’ve been feeling a lot better about drawing in general these last few weeks.

Grave of the Fireflies

New process video and illustration up.

Horror Film Concepts

New work for a client that's pitching a horror film. Hopefully got the scary-enough part going on. Very fun to work on. Also - horror film concept art for the characters:

Colorado Springs Independent

Two covers I had the opportunity to create for the Colorado Springs Independent, for their Best Of issues!  The theme was Roaring 20s -

Haunted House - speed paint

New speedpaint video for the upcoming Halloween season! This illustration is for a client's new album, and wanted it themed for the spooky holiday.

Total time was probably around 6-8 hours - hard to tell as I took breaks to make meals/snack and check social media haha

Final illo -

Finished Jon Snow and Ghost for Fanart Friday :)  timelapse shots below. 

Dat Andrew Loomis Informal Subdivision. Lots of lines, lots of frustration trying to come up with something in the composition. But it works!

Speed-Drawing Video - Mario World 8-4 Illustration

Commission/request from my brother was to create a Super Mario Bros. illustration from the original NES game. That pivotal moment when you face against Bowser and you're about to cut the bridge away from underneath him. 

As part of my Patreon, I vowed to create one video-recording each month of a piece I work on. Only I'm an idiot and recorded in thee worst possible settings and quality - so apologies for how small and poor this is. Next time will be better!
