I have all new work planned for this show and have been busy lining up models and creating lots of new work. I hope to finish somewhere between 15 and 20 new pieces to send out, a mix of drawings and paintings. I have some really fun stuff going and hope to post some soon.

Mike and I will be flying out with Kate and Jared and will spend the week kicking around LA and Palm Springs.

I’ll be posting more about both these shows as the time draws near.

Updates…More Illustration for Children

page 7

It’s been over a month since I’ve posted here. Several things are going on.
The agent I’ve been working with has kept me busy with several assignments.
Here are a few illustrations from the last project. I was really happy with
the way these kids turned out. I did 12 finished illustrations over the
Labor Day weekend. Fun eh?

These were done a bit differently than a few of my recent posts. The
sketches were done on plain paper and scanned in. After getting approval I
changed the opacity level to 10% in the layers menu and printed it out on
smooth Bristol using my trusty Epson Pixma 1500. This time I used just
gouache for the bulk of the work. Followed up with some fine detail work
using a terra cotta and then black verithin colored pencil. Finally I went
though with white for the highlights.

One of the differences with these illustrations is that I used a very light tone throughout and it made a big difference. My illustrations tend to get dark at times so it’s nice to make some progress. I look forwardto applying it in my fine arts as well.

This is for a project earlier in the month called “Squid attack” All the cool kids are doing squids attacking whales so if you haven’t done yours get on the stick.
