Link sketch

I really want to work on my painting, but I have had other things take priority over it as of late. I am hoping to get to do a little painting this weekend, but we shall see. Anyway, my anxiousness has led me to draw this:

I did a quick sketch of the "Wind Waker" Link and colored it in photoshop. Nothing special...

Still Alive

Been awhile since I have added anything to my sketchbook, though I have been painting. I blame that on Travis. He lent me Grand Theft Auto 4, a game I never wanted to play because I have never liked any of its other incarnations. Well, I like this one... dammit.

Well, in case you don't follow Lee's blog, I might be helping him with his He-Man comic, colorwise. I think he did a great job, but if you wants a hand I am willing to lend one. You can see what he has "completed" here.

Very sore today. I blame that on Tim. His bachelor party was last saturday, and we had a great time. It's been almost 4 years since I have played Schleuderball and it feels like it. Supposedly Kristin will have some pictures up on her flickr site soon, but below is my favorite picture for the day:

Usually the bachelor is the only one to be dressed funny if at all, but he made us all dress up like it was renfest. Though, Tim did look the "best" out of all of us.

5 Month Break

I finally started to work on my painting again. It's been about 5 months since I have touched it. To even say that makes me feel like a bad "artist". Anyway, I am really looking forward to finishing that thing. You can see a pic of it below and how far I have to go below.

Speaking of finishing, my good friends Andrew and Alison look like they will become parents in about 4 days. A little earlier than expected, but this is taking into account Alison and the baby health. Hopefully all goes well there.

Waterhouse Sketch

It's been a little while since I have posted. Not as long as it normally takes me, but still...

Anyway, not a whole lot is going on, but I have a bunch of weddings and other engagements creeping up on me. I really am wanting to finish my painting that I haven't worked on since November. Maybe I can do that this weekend. Below is a sketch I did from a John William Waterhouse painting. It was one of those drawings where after I finished pencilling it, I thought that pen would take away some of the finer detail. I was right. I was much happier with it when it was just in pencil. I overworked it a bit, but I am relatively pleased with it.
