J. Bauer

Jack Bauer after blasting a witness. 24 is kind of ridiculous, but it is a pretty exciting show all the same.

More sketchbook stuff

Here are some more drawings. Enjoy!

robot and friend

Trying to teach myself about perspective. All the explanations have these random cubes in them so I figured it'd be more fun to arrange them into a robot.

sketchbook favorites

I was looking through a sketchbook I finished (well it basically got too beat up to carry around, although I didn't actually fill all the pages) and decided to post some of my favorite things from it. There were a fair amount and this ended up taking longer than I thought it would so I will just post one page thing's worth for now.

I made a poster thing for a show we're having omg

Here it is. I am the drummer, fully ready to rock-pounce.

A-Kaiwa and the Juku Boys may need some explaining. So: eikawa is what English conversation classes are called here in Japan. The "ei" bit is pronounced like the letter A. So in traditional hip-hop boasting tradition (the band is an instrumental hip-hop band... if that's a genre? Like the Roots or RATM...) the kaiwa (conversation) has been given an A. At least I think that was what was intended. I didn't name it. The Juku Boys are we, the instrument-wielders. Juku is an after-school school where kids study a bunch more and learn the things they didn't learn while they were sleeping and/or shrieking in normal class. As we are all English teachers, the names seemed appropriate, and so it seemed appropriate to have us playing very emphatically in front of a small Japanese child sitting across a table on the poster. If only eikawa was actually this RAD!!!

Art commentary section in which I complain: I hate trying to draw straight lines or curved lines on my tablet. Crooked skriggly lines are ok though, those come out quite naturally. If only hands made skriggly crooked shapes instead of proportional nicely lined shapes. Also guitar strings. Still, I think it's a pretty sweet poster.

GLOW EYES

A monster emerging from some depths. HIS EYES ARE GLOWING!!!
