Safe Travels Carrie Fisher

I had this idea rolling around in my head but I didn't have time to do it and then it seemed weird when her mom followed her so shortly, but this just seemed like the way she would have met her mortality, with that awesome optimism of hers and severe lack of fucks to give.  Safe travels Princess.

Pen Pal Japan!

So, at the studio I work for, Powerhouse Animation, we have a group of japanese students that send us letters to practice english.  In them, they draw a character and then describe them.  In return we send them back artwork we have done for them on a postcard and a short letter so they can practice reading english.  In any case, this is the art I did for a young man named Taiki.

Pick'em-up Truck

It has been a while, but with some work projects out of the way I was able to scrape up some time for a project for a buddy of mine who works on cars.

My wife and I will be welcoming our first child into the world this september and this was the card I gave to my mother to break the news. It will be her first grandchild from her three kids. I had been trying to figure out how to tell her without being too corny(A fatal flaw of mine), and I came up with the poem while working on animations at my day job. My mom was super stoked which is good since I just lost my father and she lost the greatest man to walk the earth and this rejuvenated her a bit. His name will be Kawika Nakoa and I can't wait to meet the little dude and tell him what an amazing man his grandfather was.

Doodling on the iPad

So, I finally started doodling on my iPad that my wife gave me.  I used Adobe Ideas and the bamboo iPad stylus.  Its a pretty slick little program and for a first time sketch trying to work out the kinks, I think it worked pretty well.  The artwork is inspired by something else I will be doing soon, so stay tuned for a far less crappy version of a creepy jack in the box.
