Butterflys or is it Butterflies?



Either way, i did some research. butterflies were often used as pariables to describes ones transformation towards Christ. as a catepillar, it crawls about going from day to day, it does so, not knowing it's full potential. until one day it stops spins a cacoon, and emergies into something awesome, and takes flight. i often remember those days, of my own crawling about. until i bacame a buttefly.

Sheep and people..



i learned that Jesus often compared us to sheep. i also never questioned why. until my patsor broke it,(he watchs a lot animal planet) sheep when they graze have actully been know to walk of the edge of a cliff. fact. why? when they graze the sheep become so fixed with what's in front of them, they are often become oblivious to any danger around them. it's an accurate portrayel of human behavior. that's why, Jesus, is called the "good" shepared. He's their to keep us from danger, if we "choose" to listen.

so here is another charcater design. i experimented with coloring it in photoshop. just spots though. but i'll fool around with brushes, and try to challenge my self. just a distraction form pencils mostly.

work work work...

naw, this fun...
back in the bricks with another one. this is an old character for me, but i only got to the head. still i think i captured his essence. you'll be seeing more of him later. or the rest....







moving on...
now here's a guy that gave me fits. as a matter o' fact he still is. i haven't quite worked him out, because i don't think i have a real grasp for his character. but i knew he would be a challenge for me, that's why i attempted render him.








now this is what has been grasping most of my time. this is my web comic, that will soon be able to be viewed right here. i've already but together a plot synopsis, and thumbed the first four pages ( more on that later) but this is the start. and i hope you come back to enjoy it with me.

now on with the good news. as we all know SDCC is right around the corner again. i know i will not have a table this year, but i could be bumin' off of my buddies that do. so if any of you are around, please drop me a line, i'd love to meet you, and maybe do a sketch or two.

doodle if do..doodle if you don't....


see all will be well. i have my priorites in order, got photoshop loaded up on my laptop. and scanned in my doodle's. the first one you'll remember, but the reason i haven't gotten much further on him, besides the obvious on the previous post, well it's kinda hard to show progression, if you can't scan the progress in. so with that, i drew in his musket. yes his musket, pirates had and odd assortment of weapons. defined some of the lines around his head, torso, and right arm. his left i'm not liking. so i think i'll find a good point to light box it, and fix it then.

in the mean time the second doodle is a character i've been avoiding for a while. i simply find him very complex to capture his character, and his features are very challenging from different angles. more on him later...



Jesus replied,"the time has come for the Son of Man to enter into his glory. The truth is, a kernel of wheat must be plantedin the soil. Unless it dies it will be alone-a single seed. But it's death will produce many newkernels-a plentiful harvest of new lives.

Perfect Timing

hello again, i'm back. i'll keep it simple...

1. i'm still out of town and i haven't been home in a little over four weeks. hence no pictorial updates. also working ten hour days, six days a week, can kill drawing time.

2. the little laptop i had, crashed. sent it back to the company to get it fixed, got it back fraiday spent that time til now recovering my passwords.

3. i bought a little scanner($19) so i could update on the road. dummy! my imaging software is at home. still can't post pictorial updates.

4. i'm still alive, and i will be returning home this weekend to make all well to my little blog.

seee simple.

On The Horizion...


as promised, here is the latest. but i think it's time to shake things up. i've been working out these characters, and my approach to them, for some weeks now. so now that i'm starting to feel a groove here, as the latest being the exapmle {i like the way it's turning out}, i'm going to try to take them to a "more" completed stage. so i'll start a more transitional series of posts, as opposed to weekly scribbles.

as an artist i can scribble all day, but there comes a time when you reach a so to speak, fork-in-the-road, and go "now what?" for me, it's time to step it up. so i leave you with this...
