new and improved eustace

so....after hours of intensive labor and a computer meltdown i have finished revising my "eustace" piece! although the original will always have a special place in my heart, i do think this one is much improved. i'm so excited! (especially about the wings and "shiny aslan"). the exhibit is still a while away, so i'll have plenty of time to get it printed. enjoy.......
(made with oils and photoshop for those who are curious)

heads up!

hello everybody!

so, i've had to put my monster drawing on hold - but the good news is i'm working really hard revamping my "eustace" painting in photoshop. it's going to be quite different - be excited - because i'm essentially repainting most of it and making a few major additions. i'm planning to make a print and enter it in an art exhibit (i'll explain more details when it gets closer to that time). why make a print instead of working on the original you ask? well, that would be because......dun dun dun.....the original painting is currently with my sister up at wheaton with the POSSIBILITY (discussions are still underway) of having it exhibited in a c.s. lewis exhibit in the campus museum! that's right folks, wheaton college, which has a major c.s. lewis center, may be showing my painting. it's not definite yet, but here's hoping :P

all right, folks,

here is the tshirt design mock-up #3 :P

another t-shirt design

hey folks~

well, my client has decided to go in a different direction, but i wanted to post band t-shirt design #2!

hi friends!

i'm taking a short break and working on another fun piece! i know i should probably be patient and wait until it's finished, but i was too excited and wanted to go ahead and post - so, here's part of the work in progress.

hey everyone!

hope you all had a wonderful christmas! i'm looking forward to the new year (not really, haha...to me it just signifies the end of the holiday and the return to the real world...blah) but in the meantime i'm enjoying time home with the fam :)

i finally got to do a digital painting for fun! here's a christmas present i made for a friend. i think it's the best photoshop work i've done, and while i wouldn't count myself with the digital painting experts yet i think i've come a long way :P the character is "hinata" from the manga series "naruto." she's usually a very timid character, but i chose to portray her in her fighting stance - she can be very fierce when she's protecting someone she cares about.

merry christmas, everyboday! i realized that i never put the last two pictures from the book up :P here you go:





also - i designed a tshirt for my old high school band's annual trip! this year they're going to new york (no fair, we never got to go there haha). here's my first design - waiting to hear from the director to see what he thinks....
