Getting With Modernity

The time has come for me to get into digital illustration. I love drawing by hand, but I can't deny the efficiency, the perfectionism, the multi-modality of digital art.

Unfortunately I am like a caveman that got decent with fire, trying to learn to use a computer. I am totally novice. I am up to my ears in manuals and tutorials. I imagine the number one way to progress is experiment first, then read.

Here is my first flash drawing.

Eric the Godslayer

This is another one of my creations. This guy is definitely based on my buddy Eric Mathis.

I have a great deal of love for this character and my friend, which both represent a wild joyful mind, which is intensely honed yet completely un-encumbered.

May you smash many idols, my beloved friend.

Though just like Chronos, this character has taken a life all its own and imagine he will drift farther and farther from my old friend as I write him more.

Dr. Chronos Take Two

I am totally obsessed with this character.

He started as a autobiographical piece, but quickly took a life all his own. Now I see him as a sort of strange guide, like the white rabbit into the depths of my own weirdness. Chronos is my wish lab, I see what would it be like if someone somewhat like me got all my darkest wishes.

Lubbock Sketchbook Page 1

This is my first page of a hardcover sketchbook that I have dedicated to preparing my comic book.

Concept art, so to speak.

This picture is of Dr. Chronos, he is the anti-hero/villain of the book. He has a strange power to communicate with his body on a cellular level. This gives him strange powers of time perception, which unlocks all kinds of craziness.

His hometown undergoes a freak scientific accident where about 10% of the people manifest superpowers, and "avatars" which is kind of like the person's god/wish/obsession/spirit guide/demon.

Chronos returns to Lubbock to try to take it over, using its strange qualities to be supreme ruler over all he sees.

Show Flyer

My sinister plan is to try to get into doing rock and roll poster art to try to generate local recognition for my art. My first such attempt, as well as the first serious attempt at an art piece since college ended over a year ago is this:

The Great Mage Thor at Work.




Thor is the brains of the Intelligence Community, a cyberdelic band. Thor is a great friend, a great musician, and a great artist as well. This piece truly represents my sentiment towards Thor. I only wish it was a better drawing.
