I've been working on a submission for an animated short. Here are some of the designs for the characters

Iggy Walnut, a timid Bearcat and his magical scarf of imagination

Rock, over-compensating cocky Spider monkey

Fritz, a nerdy Kookabura supervisor

Sidney, a gentle Rhino who does the heavy pushing

"Talk Time with Skippy" Another animated short idea.

Lenz family Christmas Card

For my good friends, the Lenz family. They wanted a family caricature, and I knew they liked Star Wars... it seemed like a no-brainer.

Order of the Phoenix poster

originally designed for my nephew, and I liked it so much I made it into a poster for some friends and family.

Character Design class- sketches and final assignment

Week 1 vs week 8 of an initial character assignment. what a difference! 

Some more sketches from class:

Character Design Class- emotions, facial expressions and bodies.

this was one of my favorite assignments. it was really challenging to get this guy in motion and see how he would move. learned a lot! 

Character Design Class- turnarounds

we had to focus on one of the characters we initially designed. I chose Hyde, and this is the turnaround of his body.

Character Design- character sketch evolution

Character design class- ears, hands, eyes, and noses

the dreaded hands...

Character Design Class- character bodies, face sketches, exaggeration

Character Design Class- 8's, silhouettes and self sketches

The Many Emotions of Pasta

a piece I did in Grad School at SCAD for alternative comics, circa 2002. We had to illustrate a "list" of things. This was on the brain.

kung-fu masters, and monkeys

I've done illustrations for my friend Chris Genoa before for his sci-fi absurdism book, Foop!
He's working on a new one, The Monkey and the Barrel, which he asked me to some illustrations for. I'll show them off here, for posterity's sake.
