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

My version of Cody Tilson’s sketch.

Hi, Gang !

A lil’ experimentation made last afternoon, just for the fun of it. A tad more work on the font and it will be ready to be upgrade on my website… Maybe ?

Amis Gorilles, au revoir ! ^^

So this is a quick update with some sketch action I’ve been working on.  The top image is from figure drawing, the middle one is an oil sketch/study for an illustration I’m finally starting tomorrow, and the last one is a crop of a sketch I’m doing for a comic cover.

I’ve definitely been digging the pencil lately. I haven’t used graphite this much in years..haha. It’s amazing how much painting can help your drawing.

take care,

This blog is more motivating than Minfaye threatening to come to the US and steal my kim chi reserves. Thanks for the motivation guys! ^-^

Great to see all the awesome work!

Heres some pieces I’ve been playing with. One is from a figure session, the others are for an illustration I’m about to begin…I’m trying to nail a style before I start.

take care,

A new illustration from my sketchbook that I painted up last week. I am planning on remixing it into a mock snowboard ad for my graphic design portfolio. Werd.

Man guys!!… this thing is exploding. Drawn.ca and Lines and Colors have featured us! Keep the great work coming.

Anywhoo, I recently did these two pieces. The first is a caricature of the new super-group of Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, and Pharrell Williams. I would love to work for VIBE so I did it in that format (I put up a version with the text and without). The other piece is an illustration/portrait of Lupe Fiasco. Unfortunately he looks 20 years older here… haha. But I really enjoyed experimenting with it.

until next time… take care,

So, everything was okay, until I realised that goddamn font doesn’t include accents! ARGH ! Being French can be a curse, sometimes. :p This still a work in progress, the first panel for a web comic I’m working on… I will certainly post an english version here, once the whole story is done. ;) And time for Mike or Adam to help me on the translation…

Adam ?

Mike ?

[Awww, they runaway] :p

No, I’m still here - have to stick around and fix your crappy English  ;-) - ed
