Environment 2

Moving along... Here's a second drawing for an environment set.  There was a version with figures in the foreground, but it looked more like an afterthought for the composition.  I prefer this one.  Next, will be a couple of character designs, a few short comics, and color environments.

A few more things on this last day of April!

First Job in L.A.

I didn't know much about Adobe Illustrator until last week.  Learning about the software was something on my to-do list, but a friend needed logo for her new kids clothing line.  Here is the result of a week of wanting to punch my computer in its face.

Re-working Sketches

Have to build this portfolio as quickly as I can.  I like fantasy and off-Earth environments because one can just draw & really experiment with lines and forms.

There's something living in that tree, I just know it.

Cloudy Monday

Zero sunshine today in Los Angeles. We got a good deal on a water dispenser here at the studio. Trying not to go to happy hour.  Below is some catching up on sketchbook posts.  Please drink a beer for me.

Maybe Too Late for Coffee

I shouldn't drink coffee past 3pm, but sometimes one gives in to cravings.  It doesn't help that a decent coffee shop is just on the next block from the studio.  This guy, like the others seated against the back wall, was on his laptop while I eavesdropped on the two filmmakers to my left.

First Post From New Studio

Here's a sketch of the laptop on my temporary work table in the new Downtown L.A. studio.

Laptop on sewing table works well enough.

I may just have to purchase a used drafting table on Craigslist, since mine didn't fit in the car for the drive from the S.F. Bay Area.
