Some recent personal work.   barack.jpg  picture-9.png

Rollingstone

A long time goal of mine was to work with Rollingstone.  I finally had the chance but unfortunately after the art was finished the story was pulled.  I still had a blast and look forward to working with them again.      It was a music review for Foxboro Hottubs which are better known as Green Day.  They had a real 60’s vibe to their music and as such they wanted to push that with the concept.  I looked at a bunch of old concert posters and ended up here.           rollingstone.jpg       rollingstone_sketch2.jpg        rollingstone_ink.jpg

Personal Work

Something I’m playing with and will eventually turn into a large painting for a friend.

ESPN

The concept that was given to me was take these 4 coaches and place their heads on Mount Rushmore.

Heres the first round.  They wanted more texture added to the mountains and for Bobby Knight to stand out a bit more.

Here is the final.

Ciudad Magazine

Cement God Sketch1

This was for an introspective piece from a book excerpt.  The character in the story is a young boy describing his grandfather who is the best cement finisher in town.  There was mention of an accident that left the grandfather with a limp.  He was inside a commercial cement mixer, cleaning the walls, when someone accidentally hit the switch.cg2.jpg

Here is the revised color palette.  Although I felt it kind of bold to choose pink in the first version I like this one better.  I think it gives it that summer vibe which was the season the story was set in.�

Pacifico wanted to make 18 custom painted VW Vans and I was lucky enough to be selected for one. My theme was surfing. Here I am trying to catch some waves.

This was my first version but I felt it looked too cartoonie.

Here’s where I went next. They let me have a lot of fun with the tattoos.

Here’s the driver side sketch. They ended up not liking the front guy and wanted him facing the other way and a bit bulkier.

Here is the finished image. Passenger side.
