back again

I've been away from my computer for about a week. Here is some old sketchbook stuff.

Michael Phelps Caricature

I did this Michael Phelps for bostonsportz.com it was a fun one and challenging to do. He did not come out as metallic looking as I had first envisioned.

Rob Schneider

This is a different kind of drawing for me. I had Steve Silver in mind when I drew this one. It was posted on the Dirt Dogs website. Thanks again Dogs!

Willie

This a Willie Nelson commissioned for a gift. It was fun for me to do, because I'm a big fan of his music.

Bridget Bardot

This is an older drawing of Bridget Bardot. It is a fairly small drawing done with prisma colored pencils on brown construction paper.

Isaac Hayes

Just a quick tribute to Music icon Isaac Hayes who died this past weekend.

Theo

Here is an illustration I did of Boston Red Sox GM Theo Epstein. It was posted on on bostondirtdogs.com, again I would like to thank them for the post.

Logo

I group of my buddies and I, every year go up to the White Mountains of New Hampshire. This year we had a beer brewing competition, we had official mugs, and I created the design. Here is the design, I sampled from a bunch of other crest that I had seen. Some of the objects have meanings, and others are just for design. We had a good time this year, and I'm looking forward to next years trip.

Papi

This is a David Ortiz. Definitely not my best attempt. It was done just for fun.

more-more Manny

Okay, here is the last Manny, you are going to see here (for awhile). This was posted on www.BostonsportZ.com for their Bostonian of the Week .

more Manny

Here is another Manny. Manny is gone and the Sox are 1-0 with out the HOF slugger. With the departure of Manny, it is official the end of the idiots, they will be missed, and thanks for bring the winning back to Fenway.

Manny has left the yard

A quick photoshopped piece of Manny Ramirez as the Dark Knights "Joker". It was sad to see how Manny left the Sox. Just a week or two ago, he was the fan favorite, and then the sh*t hit the fan, Manny dogged it and ran his mouth. I t got so bad that yesterday the Sox paid a lot to get rid of him.
Good Luck in LA Manny, your bat will be missed.

Johnny Most

I did this illustration for www.redsocksdiaries.com They are a daily video comic, with great impersonations of various current event celebs and athletes. They had done a bunch of Johnny Most skits for the NBA Playoffs, and I did some illustration work for them, I think it worked fairly well together.

Steve McQueen

I did this painting a year or two ago. I liked the way it came out, but I took a horrible photo of it. I thought that I would post it anyway, I may try and repaint it in photoshop someday.

The Hulkster

Here is a sketch book caricature of Hulk Hogan. He is a lot of fun to draw.

BATMAN

I did this illustration for www.bostondirtdogs.com. It was for the return of David Ortiz. It is nice to see him back in the line up.

John Henry

This weeks "Bostonian of the Week" on http://www.bostonsportz.com/ was John Henry, Red Sox owner. Here is the caricature I did for the project. This drawing came out a lot different then I originally thought it would.

Say it ain't Sophia!

Here is a quick tribute to Golden Girl Estelle Getty.

Paris

I had done this piece for another undercoverfish graphic novel. I drew a story about Paris Hilton. Paris is fun to draw, and make fun of. I am not sure why she is famous, but she makes good satire.

Tito

I am doing a weekly post on www.bostonsportZ.com Basically it is a caricature of the week for someone in Boston for news that week. It should be a fun project. It will give me a little more exposure, and a new face to draw each week. I hope to use it a chance to experiment with different styles.

This weeks Bostonian of the week is Red Sox Manager Terry "Tito" Francona. This is what was posted, thank you BostonSportZ

Boo Boggs

This was a cartoon posted on www.bostondirtdogs.com I drew this during the all-star game on Tuesday night. I thought it was pretty lame that Boggs was the only Hall of Fame player that was invited to the all-star game that did not wear the hat the he was inducted in. Yes I am sure that he would have been booed because he would have been wearing a Sox hat, but.....it was kind of a chicken move. Dave Winfield wore his Padres hat, but carried and raised a NY hat, and I thought that was a nice gesture, I wish Wade would have done the same. I guess that I'm just bitter.
I would like to thank the dirtdogs for posting it, and supporting my work!

Who the f@©k! are you?

I was watching the VH1 honors of The Who last night. It reminded me that The Who is awesome!! Here is an acrylic painting/photoshopped Pete Townshend.

Kevin Kline

This is a quick drawing of Kevin Kline. I think Kline is an underrated actor. Kevin can do drama and comedy equally well.

Happy Birthday Will Ferrell

Today being Will Ferrell's birthday, I thought I'd do a drawing of him. I drew him with Han Solo look a like John C. Reilly;) These guys have great faces and are a bunch of fun to draw. Their new movie looks hilarious.

I Can't Get No Satisfaction

I did this drawing a couple of years ago. This is a good example for me to see how much I have improved as an artist. I will never be completely satisfied with my work, but I don't think anyone is. It is good to look at older pieces and see how you have improved, and it gives you hope that you will continue to do so.
