Grogu

 

Grogu

6x4

scratchboard

This piece done on scratchboard is somewhat of a side project done during my mentorship program with Giuseppe Castellano through The Illustration Dept. we were talking about the illustrator Mark Summers, who is a fantastic artist working in this medium. Giuseppe then recommended that I do a Grogu on scratchboard. He thought that it would be a good match for my style. After a minor tweak (Giuseppe excels at this), I think it came out rather well. 

The Prisoner Sketch Card Commissions

I had some blank Prisoner sketch cards reserved for my Artist Proofs and when asked by the client what I had I was more than happy to do something on them.

 

My Left Foot

 

From Nothing Came Something, 1990

acrylic on canvas board

12x16

Recently, I rewatched the film My Left Foot with Daniel Day-Lewis. I hadn't seen it it in some time, probably the early 90's, or so. I was very inspired by the story of Christy Brown and did this painting not long after my first viewing of the movie. I dug it up and looked it over some. It's a simple piece, but I still like it. I don't know why I chose to do the foot as a silhouette, but I think it works. 

Arthur Wells and The Terror

 

(click to enlarge)

This here illustration is the fourth in a series based on the Jules Verne book, Master of the World. This scene is when a Toledo police agent discovered that a submersible, was using the entrance of a creek near Lake Erie to make necessary repairs. 

This was done under the guidance of creative director Giuseppe Castellano through The Illustration Dept.'s mentorship program. 

More to come!

A Michigan To Texas Birthday Wish 2020

 

Each year, my friend Sandra down in Texas gets internet pics posted for her birthday and hopefully, she still gets a bunch of them. This year's pic is from this past October when I went for an open air helicopter ride. One can see my knee as we did a steep left bank, and that scene is a pretty good fall sky in Michigan.

Happy Birthday, Sandra!
