I know it’s been forever and ever since I actually posted work. In case you guys are curious or didn’t see I finally found a graphic artist position and I start this next week. I’m super excited! But I’ve been off here and not posting for a long time only due to my last job being so demanding that I never had time to draw. I also was allergic to the chemicals I had to use which made it painful to draw too. (blisters, dry bleeding skin etc) I’ll save you the gory details. But I’m back and I’m going to be dedicated to creating work both at work and outside work since I’ll also have a set schedule to do so! I really am excited, and so is my doctor. Soo….this is a doodle just to say this and one I did in between playing around in illustrator and photoshop.
 
In any case I’m sorry I’ve been absent, it won’t happen again. :(

This is so true. More than people would like to think.

Good rules to live by.  Mix it up.  Keep it fresh.

Hey all! Talked about this on my Facebook a couple days ago, but I’ve managed to sketch this up to go along with the post. But I’m opening up a fundraising commission based project for the month of January. I got really sick and missed quite a bit of work so in an attempt to make ends meet I’m going to do small black and white and color paintings in both analog and digital. Your choosing.
Guidelines:  I’ll draw anything just keep it PG-13. I’m not looking for any really graphic stuff.
Price:  Digital black and white: $5  Digital full color: $10 
Analog both color and b&w: $10.  (This is only because I’m going to cover shipping, postage etc.)
I’m also looking to keep them all small enough so that I can hopefully stick to small and large photo mailers to get them to you if they need to be mailed. So between 4x6 upwards to 8.5 x 11. Possibly larger. It’ll depend on how many of these I get.
I’m planning on putting in a PayPal button in here but right now I’m not able to just yet. But I will later tonight. I’m currently doing this while on the go.
Please send me a message if you are interested either on twitter, Facebook, or here. Or ask for my email as well. Thanks guys!
Also! If you have an issue with prices etc let me know. Some people have expressed they want to pay more than what I have set. So if you would like a really small one for less like $3 or something or the other end let me know before hand.
Due to everyone wanting to pay different amounts Im going to for go putting a pay pal button in. Just get in contact with me (several of you have already) and I’ll just have you use paypal but in the traditional email sense. Paypal requires donation buttons like what most of you want to use to be verified non-profit organizations. Which this is commission based, so there is a difference. Thanks everyone!

Can’t sleep, ended up doing a quick doodle on the iPad again. Definitely starting to get the hang of actually drawing on the tablet rather than my wacom and looking at the screen. Kind of inspired by Mucha and then the hair doodle I did a while back. I had a whole theme I was thinking of doing, probably still will do. Messing with patterns too for giggles.

Been working on freelance stuff all day but found some time to just doodle and take a break after tweaking some projects. Headed back into the grind in a bit after I take a shower. 
I went a little bit more realistic this time around too. Felt like I needed to do something more solid and less stylized than usual. Maybe it’s my mood. No surprise that it’s a night scene again, haha. Oh, and I also did this on my friend’s iPad. :) 
EDIT: Click on the image to see it in a lot better and in higher quality. Tumblr ate up the lines for the smaller image.

Biotic Kitty! Just a random doodle to pass the time and warm up. I may end up fleshing this out more later. For now though, it’ll be rough goodies.
