Car accident. I am okay

Those of you that read Zombie Ranch know that I was in a car accident a few weeks ago. I just want to let you all know that I am okay. The car is sadly not and was considered a…

Alpacacorn

(Realized that I hadn’t signed it on the canvas yet, so I did it digitally. Might alter the image when I sign the actual canvas and re-scan it.) One of the hardest things for me to do as an artist…

I play Drawception

I have been feeling better for the last couple of days, then I started to feel cruddy today. I play games to help me ignore when I feel icky and Clint has shown me the site drawception.com. I have become…

I Doodle in the margins

Thought I would share with you the margin doodles I did today and kind of talk on this habit.  I use to doodle in the margins a lot when I went to school. In my teens, teachers started asking us…

Future Comic Character Concept Art

So I failed again at fully doing the Inktober challenge, but that is mostly due to me really wanting to work on a new comic story. This story is a sci-fi story with a woman traveling the galaxy. And for…
