New Freelance Logo


This artwork is for my new logo for freelancing art and design. I decided to come up with a more active design that I previously used. Also, it was just time to change the name since I had used the old one since 1994. The artwork I originally drew using a simple marker on art paper. I could never get what I was looking for when I went back to it. So I went back and scanned it in. Then I used Illustrator's pencil tool and brush effects to give it more of an art feel.

Latest Art


This is a 12 x 12 acrylic I did for a fundraiser in Tulsa, OK. I had a LOT of ideas for the piece but decided to K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid). Since it was in Tulsa, the home of fat-cat, oil men I decided to go with that. The oilee covers the entire canvas and all sides are painted. the sides have small oil wells on them.
It was one of the first to sell.
Thanks to my cousin for taking a photo, since I totally forgot to before shipping it there.

Last of the Holiday Art




I wanted to post this card design as my last submission that is holiday related until next year. This is a pencil drawing partially colored by Photoshop. The before and after are included. Santa's bag has torn open and presents are flying out. The inside quote is "Next Year - Gift Cards!!!"

Happy New Year!!!


I've been away from the keyboard for about a week. So here's my new post. This was my Christmas card for 2007. The theme is an Emo elf surrounded by your typical, bright colored, happy elves. He's so happy this year he's going to smile when you open the card.
Created the line work in pencil and ink, scanned it for 600 dpi, then colored it in Photoshop because time was running out.
I hope you had a happy holiday - whichever one you celebrate.
