Wolf

Here's a quick sketch I did for my friend Cheyenne Curtis, check out here work, it's pretty GREAT. I think she's going to post other versions that were done by other people as well, can't wait to see!

From Paris

I recently went to Paris, my first time, it was so amazing for so many different reasons. The food, the coffee, the people watching, the Museums, the architecture, visiting the local fromagerie and so much more. Such a great place to celebrate being an Artist. One of my favorite places was "The History of Inventions Museum" I put together this small collection of objects, gadgets, textures and colors that I saw while there and around.

Tuff Puppy and Fairly OddParents

To try and catch up a bit I thought I would post a few more recent things from both Tuff Puppy and Fairly OddParents...

Tuff Puppy...

Wow, I guess it's been a while since I posted anything. Been working pretty hard recently I guess, not much time for anything else it seems. With that said here are a couple of crowds I recently did for Tuff Puppy. Crowds for me are always lots of fun, It's a challenge to make everything work, kind of like a giant jig-saw puzzle.

Things that go bump in the night...

Seattle 1999 or so...

Saw this guy quite a few years back when I was in Seattle. I was at a free concert downtown and this guy walked buy, he looked
like a character from a David Lynch film....

LA Farmers Market

the apple....

Some recent doodles....

My flickr page....

Besides posting stuff here on my blog I also post things on flickr. Most of the work here is animation related but on my flickr page you will see more of my personal work, doodles, paintings Illustrations and other fun stuff I do outside of work. If you have a minute have a look...thx.

TUFF Puppy Designs

A few designs from a nice Dave Thomas board...

Tuff Puppy Villains

A cluster of villains I designed for episode 103 based off of some nice Fred Gonzales board drawings. It's always fun drawing bad guys for some reason...??

Hallow.....

A quick doodle in the spirit of the season....

Agent Racoon TUFF Puppy

These designs are from episode 3.

Post it drawings

For the last 10-12 years I have been sketching, doodling and carving out a very personal style on Post it notes. After much encouragement from a friend I am finally going to start sharing them. In most cases they are heads or faces or random thoughts that are on my mind at the moment. Here are just a few...

Agent Pig

More Tuff Puppy designs....

Tuff Puppy designs

Well now that T.U.F.F. Puppy aired I can finally show a few things that I have been working on. This is one of Snaptrap's evil Doom agents, he's an English bloke named Ollie. On the advice of a co-worker I modeled him after the tall thin English character Horace from 101 Dalmatians. I did several very rough passes at him and Butch just picked one, with almost no changes it went off to clean up...that doesn't happen often I must admit.

Color by Alex Deligiannis

The Surgeon General

This is an older design I did on paper a few years back, the Surgeon General. Looking at this makes me realize how much I miss drawing on paper with pencil. I think I'll dig around and see if I can find some more of these older designs that were done on paper and post just those for a while.

Fairly Odd Parents title cards

One of my many responsibilities on the show is to come up with title card concepts. Here are a few that I've done in the last year or so. They usually begin with a rough concept sketch and then if selected are then taken to a finished rough that is then cleaned up and colored. Staging and working out the typography are the most challenging and fun parts of designing the title cards. And as always great color from my friends Kaz Aizawa, Alex Deligiannis, Dan Chesser, Kelly Chan and Kristin Donner. They always take my ideas and make them come to life..! Also thx to Eirik Paye for his great rough clean up on a few of these.

Some older designs.....Fairly Odd Parents

These are from about 5 or 6 years ago, amazing how much the style has changed.

Fairly Odd Zombies...Fairly Odd Parents

A few designs I did last season from an FOP episode called "One Man Banned'. I was working from Arron Hammersly's board On this one. In this episode Timmy becomes a triangle playing Rock Star traveling the globe getting mobbed by fans everywhere he goes. He shoots video's, releases hit albums and breaks all attendance records but eventually like most big stars it goes to his head and he self destructs. I've also included the original title card that I did which was not used, I ended up doing a different one instead. Great color as always from Kaz Aizawa on the title card and and Alex Deligiannis on the models and also great work from our Clean Up department.
