Hey everyone,

It’s been ages since I posted. Didn’t want to take away form the quality of the blog. You guys and gals have been kicking my ass.

If you’re not aware, I have a little blog called Nude of the Day. Simple premise, I post 1 nude I painted/drew at figure drawing sessions every day. And ever since the creation of the blog in 2007 I have been doing this for 1000 days!!! Yea I know, Crazy!!!

Here’s the 1000th Nude:

So the other deal with the blog is that every drawing/painting is for sale. I have been selling these on the cheap for a while now. So after posting the 1000th Nude I’ve started jacking up the prices. As you can imagine it takes some time to go through 1000 posts and change the prices on them, so if you’re interested in picking up a piece at the lower price, do so now. NOW!!! :P

Here are some of my favorite pieces from February:

Hey Gorillaz,

Hey guys and gals,

Today is the one year anniversary of my blog “Nude of the Day”. To commemorate this I decided to publish a book Best of Nude of the Day: Year One. Here are just a few pieces I’m planning on including in the book:

You can check out the rest of the pieces in consideration so far right here. I’m hoping to have it ready for this year’s San Diego ComicCon.
Check out the Nude of the Day blog for yourselves and let me know if there are any pieces that I’m overlooking.

Also, don’t forget about the two-for-one sale going on throughout the month of June.

Amazing work from everyone!!!

Sorry for being a no-show for a while. Deadlines and life keeping me from doing a lot of personal work. But I did just finish a Watercolor Moleskine and the first part is posted on the blog Watercolor Moleskine Part 1. Here are some excerpts from the post:

All the Nudes are from the Jazz & Sketch Sessions at the Society of Illustrators. The larger nudes I put up for sale on my other blog Nude of the Day. It will be celebrating it’s 1-Year Anniversary on June 16th and in honor of that I’m running a HUGE sale through the month of June. Click on image for details of the Sale.

Just updated the Blog with another Moleskine post. This one is a trip through memory lane.

I did this sketch a while back meaning to add to it/finish it before I post it. I never got around to it. But I recently found it, scanned it, and now posted it :P
