The sketch Pad

Here's the finished portrait illustration of John and John from They Might Be Giants. I really wanted to do a good job with this illustration since I've been a huge fan of theirs for years. As I began painting, I tried to push color more in this piece than I usually do to add a more dynamic feeling to the piece, as well as to help accentuate the toy bobblehead concept. You'll be able to find this in the January/February issue of Skope Magazine.

These are preliminary character sketches for a project that I'm working on with a friend. I'm undecided whether they characters should be a bit more cartoon-slash-stylized as opposed to being this realistic in style. I'll post more versions of the character later.

I just finished this sketch for an article about They Might Be Giants. After thinking about the assignment I decided that it would be a fun idea to do John and John as bobbleheads. And so far I'm pretty pleased with the result.
