By the power of Greyskull!


If by grey, you mean graphite and by skull, you mean...skull...

We make holes in teeth!

I've dreamt of seeing this commercial again for years. Thanks Youtube for making sure my childhood memories are preserved for eternity (At least until you get shut down...) As a kid, I loved those Jack Kirby-esque characters and how could you deny the beauty of a city wall made up of giant teeth! I'm truly amazed how well the actual commercial holds up to how I remembered it. I can't say the same for Voltron or the Superfriends...anyways, gotta go, I've got a hankering for a round of some vigorous teeth brushing!

Spaceman sketches set #5



This pair was the last two from this series. I plan on continuing this series, but lately life (or laziness) has been getting in the way. When I sketched in the Dog painting, the air tube originally filled the entire composition, twisting and curving around ornately.



As I started painting the piece, I realized that I had no focus and simplifiedI it so the dog would retain the focus. As for the Astronaut in the cockpit, I just wanted to do a piece that could tell whatever story that popped in the viewer's head. Is he crashing...taking off...does he really need to pee?

Good Friday!


Michele thought I was doing this doodle in honor of Easter. She gives me way too much credit. I just decided that a Rabbit robot made more sense than a plain old one.

Spaceman sketches set #3



Round 3. Michele veers away from the space theme and goes for something very...much her own thing. She knocks out a interesting piece, but unfortunately, she got real busy and this is where her "space" exercise ends (for now at least) No growth for me. Still doing my typical floaty something something thing...but at least I'm painting again...

Spaceman sketches set #2



Round 2. We started getting in the groove of things. Michele did the Rocket painting and I did the spacemen. The painting was done in two sessions, the first laying in the majority down and the second popping the contrasts and bring up the values I didn't (or couldn't) think of in the first round.

Spaceman sketches set #1



As a way to keep up with the painting skills, Michele and I have been doing quick little 4x6 paintings with a general space theme. These are the first 2 we did late last year.

For the image of reUltraman going from large to small, Kim suggested that from his perspective, he stays the same.
