It's been way too long since I posted a new Furkini-clad jungle queen. The figure work is all iPad, drawn in Procreate with an Apple Pencil. The background material is drawn with a traditional brushpen in one of my trusty sketchbooks. Dig it, y'all!<br />

Man, this one is defining a whole new workflow. I drew this in my sketchbook, then used my phone to take a picture of the linework. I cleaned it up a bit, then used Illustrator to vectorize the linework. Dumped a PNG to Procreate and colored/composited. The background is from Frax HD, and back to Photoshop for final compositing.</div>

I'm mashing-up the nifty Tiki style of the 1960s with some of my favorite characters. So, for some reason, i think it's funny if each character is drinking a wondrous beverage. More to come, so stay tooned!</div>

This one's heavily inspired by 1960s advertising art--it's just so very supergroovy! Doodled in my trusty sketchbook, then inked/painted in Procreate, finally composed in Adobe Photoshop. Dig it!</div>

Headed here on my next vacation! This started off as a sketch in my handy Moleskine. I took a picture and inked/painted in Procreate with Apple Pencil. I dug through photos I took on Turks and Caicos and found a nifty one for the background.</div>

I had so much fun drawing my little dog (Chalupa), that I figured you all needed to see it closer-up than the previous piece. As usual, a mixture of Procreate on iPad, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Photoshop gets us to the finish line.</div>

What better way to spend a lazy Sunday evening? Most of this was done on my trusty iPad Pro with my even trustier iPad Pencil. I took each element into Adobe Illustrator in order to generate vectorized versions for easy scaling, then composited everything in Adobe Photoshop. Hope y'all digs.</div>

So I replaced a red ink with a blue ink, without cleaning the nib first, and this is what I got when I used it to ink this piece. Not consistent, but fun. </div>

So I really enjoyed the new Flintstones comic from DC Comics, and I really wasn't expecting to. The cartooning style didn't really resonate with me. I've been a Steve Pugh fan for over a decade, but I think the stylistic approach he took is a little too realistic. The Flintstones needs a layer of abstraction to work. I would have liked to have seen a Ben Caldwell or Sean Galloway kind of approach. Not saying I could do nearly as well as any of those guys, but I was inspired to take a stab at Fred and Wilma, dancing the day away at a hep vacation getaway..</div>

I've been staring a lot at old Groo comics by the incredible Sergio Aragones! This is my attempt to integrate some lessons learned from his shortcuts to my own style. Then I made it patriotic.</div>

How I love the Bronze Age of comics--simpler stories for a simpler time. At least, I think it was a simpler time; I guess it's always a simpler time when you're a child. At any rate, my fondest comic book memories are from the 70s books, and I really miss the days when all comic books could be appreciated by all age groups. Nowadays the form is divided into uncompromising niches. It's sad to me that I can't buy Batman comics for my niece and nephew.</div>

Last one for awhile, y'all. I'm concentrating on a new web portfolio, to be debuted soon. The figure and background illustrations were done in Procreate on iPad with the Apple Pencil. Some of the textured curly bits were done with the wicked-cool fractal generator Frax! The design elements and final layout are pretty much all Adobe Photoshop, with some Adobe Illustrator thrown in for good measure.</div>

Second one in a 3-part series of DC mermaids! Main figure and background entirely drawn/painted in Procreate on iPad with an Apple Pencil. The cosmic fish tail fill was produced with a tricky combination of Frax (to generate an interesting fractal pattern) and Percolator (to lay a cool star pattern on top). Final composition was done in Adobe Photoshop, with a smidge of Illustrator.</div>

Mer-May seems to have had an effect on me. Crossed with my love for Bronze Age comics, this is the kind of design that pops from my brainstuffs. The original pose was a quick gesture from my sketchbook. All illustration and digital painting was done on iPad Pro with Apple Pencil in Procreate. The final layout/design is a combination of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. Hope y'all groove on it.</div>
