I updated the site tonight -- finally. I made a new header graphic and rewrote the "about" page. What do you think? My bootleg of Illustrator s**t the bed so I designed the header in photoshop hahaha.

Hi everyone. Hope you enjoyed the holiday season. Sorry for not posting much in the last month. I burned out on computers a little bit finishing up the pin-ups and I needed to give my eyes a break. I bought a new sketchbook and filled six pages in preparation for a series of mini-comics about the romantic misadventures of a young artist in Boston. Funny stuff. I will post sketches soon. I promise.

Yesterday I fulfilled my life-long fantasy to perform in both a training montage and a suiting up sequence in a Rocky parody video I shot with my pal Nick. Can't wait to show you the finished product. Everyone will finally know what kind of training a figure artist must go through to be successful!

These preliminary drawings were created from a live model in pencil. In the next phase of the project I will tighten the structure and anatomy in the drawings and then ink them with a brush and pen on a lightbox.

Just finished drawing the lovely and beautiful Annaliese. Anna is officially the last of the female models that posed for a pin-up in the calendar. I'll post some stuff from the session soon.

Drawing all night again tonight. I have three pin-ups to finish inking. They are coming out so tight. I went nonstop from midnight last night until 9am this morning, watched Pirate Radio (excellent), 40 Days and 40 Nights (funny but stupid) and Too Tough to Die (Ramones!) while working.

These nine single-panel comics were created for a poster I designed and illustrated as a tribute to the life of Andre the Giant for the 2009 Spiritus art show at Lasell College in Newton, MA. They represent my first attempt … Continue reading →

Here I am, up at two in the morning, practicing the fine art of stipple. I don't have a drafting table at the moment, so I'm using a coffee table.
