Hi Gorillas

Here is another illustration for school.

Its part of the pencil sharpener infographic like illustration I made a few weeks back (clicky) .

Its not totally finished and the overall anatomy could use allot more attention.

I should also make it clearer that he is looking down, cause some people didn’t notice that.

anyways :)

Lots of people are asking me to post more of my progress and not only the final “illustration”.
So I figured I should post more steps of the final piece which can be seen on my blog:

hope u guys like it.

Another practice-makes-perfect oil sketch. I found this handsome fellow on flickr…tho’ he’s a namesake, I don’t know the man!

I once asked Koppa, how he get so much painting done on top of his day job - he told me he leaves his oil set up out in the living room, never cleans his pallet or brushes - so he can walk in the door, pick up the brushes and start painting. It works!

So I had to put together some sort of self promo item for NYCC, didn’t know which one of my pics I should use so I just made a new one for it :) Hope you like!

Imaginative Figure Workshop #001: Self Portrait As A Creature

So I’ve been sort of non-active Workshop wise of late…kind of felt the itch to do a new one, and here it be! Hope some of ya’ll megatalents will participate! XOXOXO, -R

HI!

So I’ve got first of all a comp for my painting class, I went slightly overboard, so it is a little bit more than a comp. The idea is very classic and I want to do something pretty classic.

The second thing is characters for my project that I keep kicking around, this time I think it might see the light of day.

Anyway, much love guys and cheers.

Another quick critter

Here’s a drawing from class + close up and a  self portrait turned experiment, all fun :)
