Inktober 27th - Duckface Freddy Selfie - It's pretty hard to draw a character who traditionally doesn't have lips doing duckface.  I want to do a couple of these.  Which horror character should I do tomorrow?#freddy #selfie #duckface #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art New Artwork From Instagram

Here's an ink drawing of my favorite character from one the coolest animated movies of all time, Wizards, named Peace.  I was using the iconic poster art as reference, just tried to put my own style and spin on it. It's pretty hard to imagine an animated film like that being made today - it had some pretty dark themes.#inktober #wizards #peace #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen New Artwork From Instagram

Two Weeeeeks! left of Inktober - If you don't get why this illustration is cool, then you're either too old or too young, and don't truly understand the classics.  #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen New Artwork From Instagram

Inktober is half over - or half empty, whatever your thing is.  Ran short of time again and had to ink a pencil sketch I have laying around of a tiki head.  I'm really going to try to make a serious effort to carve out more time to work on these in the remaining weeks.#tiki #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen New Artwork From Instagram

Happy Saturday!  Here's an ink sketch for #inktober of a rabid Picachu.  I know, pretty dumb. But sometimes art is dumb!#inktober #picachu #pokemon #nakedguyinapokeball New Artwork From Instagram

Inktober 14th - Man it's been so much fun seeing what my friends are coming up with this month.  I definitely need to set aside more time to step it up.  Need to step out of my comfort zone a bit more.  Though sometimes you just need to draw a zombie!#zombie #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen New Artwork From Instagram

Inktober Day 4: Skeleton Goofy!  I've been tasked to make t-shirts for a big group of family and friends who are going to Disney World next month, so I thought I'd hit two birds with one brick (is that cheating?) and shoehorn it into Inktober.  Going to do two more characters as skeletons, and hopefully print them on black hoodies in glow in the dark ink.#inktober #goofy #pentel #skeleton #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen New Artwork From Instagram

Who's doing #Inktober with me this year?  You have to create a new piece of artwork every day using any ink producing tool like a pen, brush, or octopus.  Really looking forward to doing it this year.  Let me know if you're in, so I can follow along. #inktober #art #pentel #ink New Artwork From Instagram

This was a steampunk character design concept I worked on for Bogard Press - used in their educational book series and other marketing materials.

I was hired last year to create some character concept art for a revamp of Scholastic's math game for kids called Sushi Monster - unfortunately, due to a gypsy curse on my family, the whole project was cancelled before we could really get into it because the art director left the company.  But it was a great experience while it lasted.#art #illustration #characterdesign #app #game #monster #creature #freelance #FlylandDesigns New Artwork From Instagram

My brother Keith is a super-talented pop-up engineer working at American Greetings – he's created this incredible pop-up book completely by himself by waking up at 5AM every morning before the rest of the fam gets up. He's launching the book via Kickstarter (WHICH STARTS TODAY!), and it would really mean a lot to me if you guys checked out his work. So inspiring! He poured everything he had into this – couldn't be more proud!http://www.messypopup.com/#pop-up #childrensbook #kickstarter #art Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

Close-up view of a skeleton rider illustration I created just for myself to try out some new coloring techniques.
