Crappy comics corner...


Messing around with ink and brush.


Revisited a drawing from an earlier post. Trying to make things read clearly without the whole thing becoming a stiff mess. The operative word being, "trying".




Another excericse i've been doing is drawing two characters interacting with each other. Never intended it to be a sequence, but the drawings started to relate with eachother and i went with it.

Just draw....

A long time ago, i had a conversation with a classmate about dealing with self doubt when it came to my artwork. This was his advice:

"You talk too much, man. Just draw. Look, i know my work ain't shit, but i do it anyway because i love it."

Here's to you, classmate who's name i've long since forgotten.

The child ain't right



The drawing above was inspired by one of my favorite toys as a kid: BOGLINS. They were a collection of creepy hand puppets, complete with shifty glow-in-the-dark eyes. Being made of rubber, you could contort their faces into all sorts of gnarly expressions. Drool(featured below) was my favorite one. Despite all the good times we shared together, i eventually grew bored of him and coldly tossed him up onto a telephone pole. I would regretfully stare up at his lifeless rubber corpse each morning on the way to school until one day he was gone. Sorry Drool. I didn't know any better.


in loving memory
