Inspired? Hell yeah!

Thursday Inspiration

"I prefer drawing to talking. Drawing is faster, and leaves less room for lies."
Le Corbusier

Illustration inspiration

I'd love to see a whole comic done like this Batman image.

Magnolia trick or treat -- Brilliant!



This reminds me of what Marla Campbell is doing on her blog .

Inspiration

I'm always finding and collecting cool illustrations on the web - instead of keeping them to myself and my hard drive I thought I'd start sharing them. Enjoy!

Edward Scissorhands commission

For Beth from back in 2005.

DEXTER commission

Here's a commission I finished just in time for Christmas of Dexter Morgan. I almost like step one with the blue shadows only better than the final.

Quick Sketch - Peter Kuper Rip-off

An experiment in creating custom brushes lead to this Peter Kuper inspired sketch. Manga Studio drawn Photoshop composite. 30 minutes. My apologies to Mr. Kuper -- you are a god among men and this is just the shallowest of imitations.

Quick Sketch - Blue Girl

20 minute Manga Studio sketch. Just playing.

Commission for Noah Age 5

Because I would have wanted this drawing on my wall when I was 5.

Original Art Collection #13: Luis Garcia Mozos

This is a Grail Page for me. I grew up reading Heavy Metal magazine and whenever I think of HM today I think of this page, Richard Corben, HR Giger , and Enki Bilal. In that order.
I'm a big fan of Leif Peng's Today's Inspiration which recently ran a great article about Luis Garcia Mozos . In doing a bit of poking around I discovered he was the artist of this page which has always been stuck in my head. A bit more poking around lead me to his Facebook site. Amazingly enough this page, which he drew in 1981 was still available. Let's not even mention that it is page 33, the age I was when I met my wife, or the fact that 3 has always been my favorite number. Let's not even bring that up because that sounds an awful lot like fate to me.
To see a scan of this simply does not do it justice so I will post some detail shots soon.

Wally Wood's 22 Panels that always work.

Deadlines got you down? Noodling too much? Mix it up with Wally's 22 panels. Of course his motto was also "Never draw anything you can copy, never copy anything you can trace, never trace anything you can cut out and paste." I'm not sure I agree with all of that all of the time but a deadline is a deadline. Image courtesy of this site.
