A few favorites from the jobs I've been doing for monies.

Some storyboards:

3 out of 4

I got these done about a month ago. I've been waiting for them to finish healing before I took photos. I'm going back for the fourth one later this week. I'm really happy with them. I will repeat myself and say once again that Stephanie Tamez is amazing. Her line work with a giant pulsating machine is cleaner than my originals done with my dinky dip pen and she's also insanely fast and super friendly. She's awesome! Go to Brooklyn Adorned and give her business.

Pen and Ink - Tattoo Redo

I always intended to clean these guys up before I finally committed and got them but I've been putting it off until I took Pen and Ink. I've still got a couple of weeks left but our assignments are all open now so I figured I may as well go for it. I'm pretty satisfied with the results. I've just e-mailed the fantastically talented Stephanie Tamez who has done a lot of amazing engraving inspired tattoos, and if everything goes according to plan I should be getting these done sometime in the near future. I've got my fingers crossed....

Pen and Ink - Value Studies

Pen and Ink - Artist Copy

We had to do an artist copy for class and I thought Fritz Eichenberg was a pretty cool dude who did some pretty cool things, like this illustration from Crime and Punishment (who doesn't like some Dostoyevsky?) It took me a little while to realize that copying a wood-cut for a pen and ink assignment was probably one of the less intelligent choices I could have made but that's how it goes I suppose...

Artistic Anatomy - The Human Ideal

The final for artistic anatomy needed to be something addressing the topic of the human ideal but this guys isn't going to make much sense unless you're familiar with this. But it's a safe assumption that you've all seen that before, right?

As a side note, I found the coolest book in the process of doing this project. Really, not for the weak of heart (or stomach) but otherwise, check it out! It's awesome!
