Halfway done. Inked the bones and now on to the flesh. I'm a lefty so its better for me to work left to right on a sheet of paper as to not ruin my pencils from moving my hand back and forth over them. Ned Flanders knows my pain. I'll be posting the new

I just made the bones of that hand my bitch! Always the most difficult part for me on a piece are the hands. I whipped out some of my previous originals to steal from myself. I feel like I got a bit closer to drawing the hand correctly. Eventually I'll ta

It's one of those nights/weekends. Stuck on hold waiting for approval on a big project so I'm sneaking in time to work on my own thang. I'm stoked on it because it has tons of detail and I will be complaining about it later. #firstworldnerdproblems Bumme

Working on a project I can't post about so here's a side project I'm sneaking in when there's time. Just finished the head and now realize I want the flesh to be on the other side. So now I gotta erase that side and redraw all the bones underneath. Unfun.

I'm at the SFA2 this weekend in Kansas City, MO this weekend at booth 901. I brought some sold out prints and originals to schill. I'm also starving and would not say no to some shitty beer or respectable whiskey. Sunday in room 2502 I'll be doing a pane

Done with the first side. It's best to tackle the easy stuff first. The left side with all the muscles will most likely fuck my hand up. So I saved that for last. It's gonna be a lot of coverage. My hand needs its beauty sleep. (Damn...so do I...) More pr

Stopping for tonight. The hardest part was the hand. Anatomy books don't cover the hand very well and don't show it from different angles. So there's a lot of guessing and license I hafta take when drawing them. Each time I do one of these anatomical piec

It's gonna be one of those weekends. Starting on a poster @descadet 's band des and the cendents. An 'all'-lady Descendents cover band. This is gonna be some fun. Especially since I'm bouncing off the walls from drinking too much coffee to get in the mood

About to start inking the 2nd part of this piece. Just quadruple-checking that things will line up. This is the inks from the 1st part on top of the pencils for the 2nd part. Confused? Me too! I gotta finish inks on this by tomorrow. Then make it all work

Did a little inking and drinking tonight. Part 1 of this piece is done. Stoked. This took less time than usual. Was it the martinis, shitty R&B and Tom Waits? Maaaaybe... Tomorrow I ink part 2 - the anatomical stuff. Should be fun. (Just keep telling your
