This is going to be the companion guy for the girl down there in the roses. I like to make pieces that are a set, like old decorative prints from the 60's (big-eyed and otherwise). When there's two of them it just really feels like something that's supposed to occupy a space, versus just one which can feel kinda lonely on a wall all by itself.
So if you look to your right, you'll see that I have a button that says "store" but it doesn't go anywhere. Don't worry, it just doesn't go anywhere yet. If all goes well I should be opening up a little store here on the internets early next week! So you'll be able to get nice prints of artwork, if you like. There's also a "portfolio" button, and even though I kind of find the idea of a portfolio/blog gross, it's really there for people who aren't familiar with my work or who stumble onto this blog for the first time or for quick reference if I don't have my portfolio on my person (which I never, ever do). This blog is good for a few reasons, like showing works in progress and talking about what I've been up to and blah blah whatever, but it doesn't exactly represent what I'm capable of doing art-wise. That said, it's an un-updated version of my portfolio from last year, so it's really not up to snuff. But it's still better than nothing!
Now, some news:
-I'm not working at Disney anymore.
-I'm going to Austria in June for 2 weeks.
-I've been making lots of personal work (like the stuff above) and I'm really happy about that.
So, yeah, everything would appear to be coming together in a lovely kind of way.
P.S., If you were formerly in my links and now you're not, don't feel bad! All the links got erased when I update the template so I'm still in the process of collecting them again.

Wow great news all around! Lovely drawing, have fun in Austria!
I love that wrinkle line on his shirt that helps give his body a three dimensional quality,, even though this is a 2 dimensional drawing!!!!So Awesome!!! All folly aside, this is a really great and appealing drawing and I can see the seeds of a strong idea brewing. I can't wait to see it all come to fruition. I hope your work invades the living spaces of very tasteful people everywhere, I really do.

You draw companions for your characters? I have to say, that's very considerate. My characters have adversaries at best. I'll make it a point to draw more companions :)
