SHANK OR DIE

Got a chance today to shoot some photos of this piece I did recently for the Deck the Halls all-skate-deck art show at the SALTQuarters Gallery here in Syracuse. This piece is now sold and it's gonna be hard to let go of it, but I guess that's just all the more reason to get into the next one! I decided against trying to scan it because of the curvature of the board, so I tried to get some good photos instead. Here's the shot of the whole thing followed by some closeups. Lighting isn't optimal, even though I was outside (in single-digit temperatures, no less) when I shot it, but you get the idea. It does look better in person, but what are you gonna do. I'll take what I can get, I'm no pro photographer. Hope you dig it.

This one was a lot of fun. Gotta do more like this. A private commission - pen and ink with watercolor, 8x10". Working small like this was cool, much easier to get into it than my usual larger finished size.

Another Sweet Skate Deck Illustration Job for Demon Seed

This time I got to do an Animal Farm-esque doll head boneyard of sorts, had lots of fun with this one. The creepier the better...big up to Demon Seed for letting me go wild on stuff like this.
