Snow Day

Well, we had our first snow fall today. A bit early for us but I am not complaining. Tons of sledding and snowball throwing. Even better, I've just been informed that Jadyn's school is shut tomorrow. He is gonna be so stoked. I could be wrong but I think I'm starting to get that festive feeling.

Marmots

I was born a scribbling penciler. I'm truly most comfortable there. I'm scared of clean-up, frightened of ink and petrified of color. That being said, I now need to learn all three. The next few posts will be experimenting with experiments, mostly in photoshop. I bought a small wacom tablet and am franticly trying to learn its wizardry. I will gladly accept your critiques and tutorials, mostly the latter.

Portraits

Between now and Christmas I'm going to be doing some commissioned portraits. I'm a bit rusty so I'd appreciate any feedback or critiques. I'll continue to post as they come. Thanks again for stopping by. Cheers

Happy Halloween

Here's a wee post-it to end the night. Hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween. Cheers

Channel Frederator Interview

I wanted to give a BIG THANK YOU to Steven Levinson for considering me to be included in his character design blog. Steven does some amazing work for Channel Frederator. Here's the interview. Cheers

Pencil Test

This is a pencil test for Storyboards Online. If anyone has done any work for them I'd love to hear your experience. Thanks again to everyone for dropping by. All your encouraging words mean so much to me. I've also updated my links with a ton of talented artists so please check them out when you have a chance. These are the people that inspire my daily. Cheers,

Andrew

Murals

So here's the finished mural. Now this one was a bit of a challenge. It started at 10 ft and went up another 6, so these characters are practically life-size. To reach the painting area I had to stack three tables, which made bringing paint up and down a bit difficult. The lesson here, make sure you visit the location before you give a quote. Oh well, that's how we learn, right? I still had a blast. Cheers and thanks for all your kind comments.

I just finished designing a mural for the Boys and Girls Club of Victoria. These are 2 of the main characters. I start painting tomorrow morning.

These two are totally random. The surfer is a design for an upcoming mural in at the Boys and Girls Club and the little girl and mom came from an afternoon of sketching with the extremely talented Cale Atkinson. Not only is Cale a rockin designer but he's also working on his very own animated short. So far the designs look very cool. Hope you enjoy.

Cheers

Birthday Card

I've had the opportunity to teach a few children's art classes recently and have thoroughly enjoyed it. The school has since commissioned me to design a couple birthday cards for their students. This is one of the roughs from an early design.
