Happy Birthday to Me

Don't have a whole lot of time today but I decided to celebrate my birthday with a gag from an old classic: THE SHADOW!!

Coloring Contest

I follow a blog of a very talented story board artist named Heather Dixon and she recently published a book. To celebrate Ms. Dixon is having a coloring contest. I just couldn't help myself. The line work was fantastic and it I just had to dig into my digital coloring box and have a go at it.

Be sure to check out Ms. Dixon's blog when you get a chance. Trust me, you'll thank me.

Traditional Art

I've been working on a children's book for some time now and I've been starting to make some headway in completing it so I thought I post a small teaser.

What I've been doing is penciling and inking the pieces traditionally and then scanning them into the computer and digitally coloring them. In addition to that, I've started coloring the pages in warm and cool gray Copic Markers so that once the book has been published I can sell the original art.

So, I hope everyone enjoys this little sneak peek and wish me luck on getting it all done soon!
