iAnimate

Just wanted to share with you guys that I just started my first workshop at iAnimate! I feel really happy to be part of the program and couldn't be more excited!

For my friends 06

For my friends 05

One of my friends just pointed out that I hadn't posted in a while. Sorry about that!!! I've been really busy with work. I'll try to update again soon with more drawings, but for now:
This is a drawing I did for my friend Deborah.

Different style

I had the chance to experiment with a different style recently. I have to say it was quite fun :)

2010 Sanborns Commercial_hairdryer

This video is a commercial I did for a Mexican Restaurant company called Sanborns.

For each commercial I did I got a 3 panel storyboard explaining the gist of what they wanted. That left a lot of freedom to create interesting staging, adding gags and personalities to each commercial. It was a real pleasure.
Hope you enjoy watching it as much as I had fun working on it :).



Peinados de Moda = Fashionable hair
Para chicos y grandes = For kids and adults

Prolonged absence

Sorry for my prolonged absence!! I've been super busy with work, and I currently don't have a scanner available. I did want to finally update with something however, but I want to ask your forgiveness for the quality of the image. All I have is my camera, so that had to suffice for capturing this image. Hopefully I'll be able to update soon again, and it might even be some animation if I'm allowed to show it :) Hope you're all well, and I'll try and post again soon.
Cheers :)

Love

Merry Christmas everyone

For my friends 04

This is for my friend Glenn. He's such a nice person and he always helps people, so I just wanted to say thank you.

For my friends 03

I did this drawing for my friend Faith! She has such a cool style, that I couldn't resist drawing her. I'm really happy how the picture turned out!

For my friends 02

This gorgeous little girl is the daughter of my friend James and Jen :)

For my friends

I'm doing a lot drawings for my friends at the moment. I'll try and put them up over the next few weeks.

Thank you Stephen

For those of you that like to listen to motivational speeches and podcasts about drawing, you should definitely check out Stephen Silvers UStream Videos. He gives some great insight into what he thinks about while he's drawing; he shares mentalities he's picked up over the years and also some wonderful stories with his listeners.

Here are some facial studies that I've been doing recently and I thought the would fit in well with this post. I had lots of fun doing these. Comments and critiques are as always more then welcome :).

Birthday Party 01

Happy Birthday Sam !

I did this image for my friend Sam, whose birthday it is today :D!
I also have to give out a BIG thank you to David Sourwine for helping me finesse the colours.

Derek & Chloe 03

I found Chloe really hard to draw. I think especially in this image she doesn't quite look right so I apologize for that in advance. That said, I still like the atmosphere in this drawing though so I thought I would post it none the less.

Also I wanted to post a link to my friend Anne-Maries blog. She's the one that got me reading "The Summoning", and she did some amazing drawings of the books. Two of her posts can be found here
