This Queen illustration I created for an official Queen pinball machine was for something big that ALMOST happened, but ultimately fell apart. When you’ve been freelancing for as long as I have, you start to accumulate a big pile of ALMOSTs. It’s best not to let those weigh you down – just keep going and […]
Cute little polar bear cub smiling in the snow is the new mascot for an elementary school.
A marijuana pot leaf with each leaf a different entity, the main ones being a mischievous skull, flames, and bones.
I came up with a DIY MacGyver stand for my Wacom Cintiq Pro – I cut a piece of PVC pipe at 30 degree angles. Fits perfectly over the little nubs that are attached to the back of the tablet, and its super sturdy. I even stuffed some old socks in there to create a […]
Check out this custom-made skateboard deck I get to paint on! Private commission for a customer – it will be painted directly on the board – something Tiki inspired.

Here was the Pencil sketch I created on the iPad Pro in Clip Studio Paint of Spawn in a collaboration with the artist @Chogrin . The screen is so bright I can work outside in my backyard – it’s great to take a break from the big screen every once in a while and stare […]
Todd McFarlane’s Spawn was such a huge influence on my art style as a kid. So I was really thrilled to be asked by the artist @Chogrin to be a part of a book presented to Todd McFarlane himself to commemorate 25 years of the Hellspawn! This was the first piece of artwork that I […]

I found this great resource for learning digital painting, and all the videos are free.

Any other good classes I should look at? https://www.ctrlpaint.com/ #digitalpainting #arttips #tutorials #artresources #artschool #arthelp #arttools

It’s always so humbling to see total strangers with my artwork tattooed on their flesh! @artist_dennis_lehmann Dennis Lehmann did an incredible job recreating my tiki guy mascot. I also really appreciate when tattoo artists like this ask my permission first – so many do. I’m planning on designing something similar for myself.#tikiart #tikitattoo #tatoo #tiki

Pacman late for work. I’ve been drawing a lot more in my sketchbook lately, partly because of the local Drink and Draw I helped organize. I love it!

Illustration I created in @clipstudiopaints of some Greek Gods. As a kid, I was always fascinated by greek mythology – I’d love to see a Netflix series retell the different stories but in a gritty, dark way. #mascot #characterdesign #clipstudiopaint #mangastudio #illustration #hire
