NEW ART! – McRabbit
This is a drawing I did in one of my cartooning classes that I teach where I was showing the kids how I inked a drawing over blue pencil lines. For the inking I used both a brush pen and some sharpies of different widths. I also liked the art enough to give is some photoshop coloring as well.
I know it’s kinda of weird to see a redheaded white rabbit, but I thought it was funny. He has a lot of personality and I like that.

New Art: Gorey bug at the beach (now with video animation clips)
My first drawing (posted) of the new year. I drew this guy at my Parent/Child at the Cartoon Art Museum and to me it looks like it was designed by Edward Gorey.
Below is a test for something new. My hope is that at lest once a month I will take one of my drawings and use digital tools to animate it. The version below needs a bit of work still, but you get the idea of where I am going with it. If you like it, comment please and let me know.
EDIT: I have replaced the test footage with the final video, to find out more visit HERE.

SDCC 2011 part 4: My artwork I created
As you know from my previous posts, I participated in the Cartoon Art Museum’s Sketch-A-Thon at the SDCC2011.
Most of the time we created original art for a donation to the Museum for an individual, but sometimes we did drawings that were just examples while waiting for a customer. A few of mine that did not sell I was able to borrow from the Cartoon Art Museum to Scan and return.
YOU can buy a drawing if it’s still available for a donation of $10+ (plus shipping and handling if needed) and all proceeds go to the Cartoon Art Museum.
All characters are © there respective owners and these are only done as fan tributes and not for reproduction.
I did a few drawings that were “Kick Butt” version of Disney Princesses. This one is Princess Tiana from the “Princess and the Frog” who I saw as a warrior with voodoo powers. (below) To see my version of Belle from “Beauty and the Beast” visit my previous post.
Another Disney character I drew is the mysterious Hat Box Ghost which was a character in the famous Haunted Mansion attraction at Disneyland. The character did not last long in the ride and was removed shortly after it opened making it a mystery that the fans love. Me too.
The last piece of art is my version of DC Comics Superman as a steam punk hero.
