Digital Illustration for Italy Series




This is another digital illustration for the Italy series I am working on. It was a challenge to try and attain the texture of the wall without it taking away from or overpowering the bicycle.

More Oils




These are some more quick figure studies in oil. The poses are short and quick allowing me to stay loose and gestural with the paint.

Italy Series





These are two digital illustrations from a series I just started recording my recent travels to Italy. I wanted to capture the essence of the italian culture. There are many more illustrations in the works for this series.

Quick Figure Studies in Oil





These are some quick figure studies I did recently using oils. The poses are quick usually between ten or fifteen minutes. I wanted to expand on my figure work and try a new medium besides charcoal and pen.

Portrait Commission




I have had a lot of interest in portraits recently. I feel honored that clients trust me to capture the look and personality of the subject. Many more to come.

Best Friends




I just finished this drawing for a belated birthday gift for one of my good friends. I am always honored to see how much these drawings mean to my friends and clients. It is such a pleasure to give something to someone that they can cherish for years to come.

Zamboni Transformer

Below are the first drafts for an illustration of a Zamboni Transformer. Since a kid I have always been amazed by the Zamboni, and growing up with the toys as well as the televison show I have always been a fan of Transformers. After watching the movie, I came up with this idea. I wanted the Zamboni to resemble a ice hockey goalie and have the parts of the zam appear like goalie equipment.



I still want to add some more detail and parts to this one. I will render and digitally paint it once I am happy with drawing.



This is the first attempt of the concept. With projects like this one I will do multiple drafts adding and subtracting aspects until I reach a drawing that I want to take to completion. I wanted to show a little of my process and how I like to work.
