This is part of an unfinished digital illustration assignment. Yet to be added: serpent and upward-reaching woman.

Another very quick end-of-day doodle. Â Just a little visual recap of some of the things I was working on today.
Oh, wait; I guess I already did better versions of a couple of these.

Spent this evening eating chili and kicking out the jams. Â Before I knew it, it was late and I only had time for this 60-second sketch of some of my musical cohorts on invisible barstools.

This Art Center model obviously just woke up aboard the Nebuchadnezzar.

Lacking other inspiration, I once again grabbed a magazine to find something to sketch. Â This is from a Chevron ad in the latest Wired. Â Still not sure how it’s intended to get me to buy more expensive gasoline…

You used to be cool, Clock. Â You used to, you know, work. Â But now, it’s like you’re stuck in the past, man. Â Like it’s 3:23 p.m. all over again.
What’s that you say? Â Dead battery? Â Lame, bro. Â The clock I remember wouldn’t let a little thing like “a lack of any kind of functional power source” get in the way of our relationship.
Oh, who am I kidding? Â I can’t stay mad at you, lil’ buddy! Â New battery comin’ right up!

A red head drawing of a redhead model. Â Seemed a good fit. Â This is another quick sketch done at an Art Center workshop.

Went down south to spend some three-day-weekend time with extended family — and (by further extension) their two labradors, Starsky & Hutch. Â This is the first time I’ve ever sat and drawn any animals from observation.
I figured sleeping dogs would stay still long enough to draw, but that wasn’t really the case (hence the various different angles). Â Actually, come to think of it, most models you’d have to pay to have them generate this many poses for you…

Another sketch based on a magazine photo. Â This was in honor of last night’s stand-up comedy challenge, an annual event put on by a friend of mine. Â Stand-up is a truly bizarre medium — and I have to respect those who are able to do it well.

Another quick little pen sketch, with body posture based on a magazine photo. Somewhere along the way, I must have decided this guy needed an awkward beard, horn-rimmed glasses, and a mildly disaffected expression. Worked out to be sort of a hipster trifecta.
