Sketch Of The Week: Psychic

It seems that I've been neglecting my internet presence as of late. Which is no good for a budding illustrator like myself. It's easy to become busy with projects and forget to make time for anything else. So, I've decided that I need to put a stop to that. I'm going to make more of a conscious effort to keep things up to date, starting with this blog.

In addition to creating more general blog posts on a regular basis I'm going to start this weekly feature called Sketch Of The Week. Once a week I will post a sketch and talk about it a bit. It should be fairly simple so I'll be able to keep up with it even if I'm really busy. Now on to this weeks sketch, The Psychic...
I drew this one about a year ago. I was going to turn it into a stock vector illustration for Istockphoto. The sketch sat in a drawer for months until I finally decided to work on it. The only problem was, by that time I wasn't as happy with the drawing as I originally was. There were minor flaws here and there that bugged me. You can see some of the darker lines wear I was trying to fix things in Photoshop. At one point I started to ink it in Adobe Illustrator but I think I just lost interest in it and couldn't bring myself to finish it. I think I would like to do a complete illustration of this but I'm going to start from scratch if I do.

Desk Doodles







I was cleaning up some of the clutter on and in my desk the other day and I collected a bunch of these scrap papers with doodles on them. I've probably accumulated these over a period of five years. I was going to toss some of them out but it's very difficult for me to throw away any artwork even if it is a sloppy doodle. So I decided to post them here. I know that I like looking at the doodles and sketches of other artists, so maybe there's some folks out there that will enjoy checking out mine. If I find more I'll post them later.

Secret Comics



I posted these comics on my twitter a while back. I was going to do a series of secret twitter comics but I decided my energy was better spent on doing comics for my website. Doing these was actually quite fun. I drew them as quickly as I could and they actually didn't turn out all that bad.

My Lost Prediction Came True


I drew this way back during the second or third season of Lost, I'm not sure which exactly. It was right around the time they revealed that the monster was a mass of floating smoke. It seems that I was able to predict that John Locke and the smoke monster would become one someday. Actually, my idea was a little different than the shows. I think Locke is supposed to be using the smoke like some kind of symbiotic suit. But still it's pretty damned impressive! It's like I have some kind of crazy show predicting powers.

Let's put these powers to the test! Here's my prediction for the Lost finale: Jack goes down into the tunnel of light and emerges as a white smoke monster. Then he fights with the black smoke monster and they get all tangled up together and form a giant Yin Yang. All the cast aways will look up at them and be all, "ooooh. Ones black and the others white. It's like good and evil. I get the metaphor now." The End. We'll see if my prediction will come true on Sunday!

What I've Been Up To: Sexy Ladies, Farts and More!

I've been busy working on lots of art projects lately and neglecting my presence here in the land of the internet. So I figured I better make an appearance and show all of my millions of fans what I've been up to. Here are some delightful samples:

This freaky looking hottie is the mascot for Frankenstein Studios. I've been working with some friends of mine on a recording project. I'll be doing some illustration and animated stuff for this project as well as vocal recordings. We named our studio Frankenstein Studios because of the trash that was dug up to put it together. Anyway, I came up with the idea of doing a sexy bride of Frankenstein to put on our Youtube page to grab the attention of sex perverts and trick them into watching our videos. Hopefully it works. Check it out. We put some silly videos on there to kick things off, including the Disappointmentville: Work is Hell Audio Comic For the Illiterate.


This month I've been doing shit tons of vector art for my istockphoto portfolio. I'm trying to make a good passive income from this so I can make an easy transition from sad supermarket clerk to slightly less sad freelance cartoonist. So far I've uploaded twelve new vectors to my portfolio. You can check them all out on in my istock portfolio.


These two sexy ladies are part of 1 of 4 promotional comic strips I did for winthetrophy.com.
You can check out all of the strips I illustrated on the Win The Trophy about page.

Anyway, That's what I've been up to latley. Maybe I can try and do even more stuff and then never see the sun or other people again! Yeah!... :(
