Sport Sketches

I have had a lot of requests to put up more of my sketches from my sketchbook on my blog, so I put these two pages together. I love sports and I wanted to capture the weight and motion of these sports through quick line gestures. I just finished another sketchbook and I am currently scanning images and look forward to posting more.

quick oil painting

I have been working more and more with oils and traditional media. This was a quick oil painting I did yesterday that took about and hour and a half. I was focusing on light and color relationships.

Smart Car for Italy series

This is another illustration for my Italy series. I always saw the smart car in magazines and I finally saw one in Rome. I had to do an illustration of it for my Italy series.

Fun Drive

I recently went to Yosemite for the first time with my family. Driving through the park in my brother in-law's Subaru was so much fun I had to return the favor and do this illustration for him.

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.
