The Easter....Bunny

Here is a sketch that I made completely in Photoshop. I was going for a different way of coloring. Incorporating what I learned with oil paints, but using that technique in Photoshop. When people saw the finished product, there were alot of mixed reviews, to say the least...

Voodoo Spider Sketch before Color & Ink

Here is the sketch of the voodoo spider I did in Photoshop before I went into Flash and did the inking to get crisp lines. Then I brought it back into photoshop and colored it.

Voodoo Spider Character sketch

I recently saw a video on youtube of a cool spider. Although I'm not a fan of Spiders, I found this one to be different. It has a colorful sort of plumage on its abdomen and does a kind of mating dance. Its also smaller than a thumbnail. When I saw this my mind got to working and my sister said it reminded her of a voodoo doctor kind of thing. I couldn't get that out of my head, I had to draw it. So below is what I came up with.

Animal Charm: Movie Poster Design (Voting Open)

A contest I entered on Talenthouse.com. The contest was to design the movie poster for the upcoming indie flick "Animal Charm" starring Sadie Frost (Best know for her role as Lucy in Bram Stokers Dracula). Not much was said about the movie to make a poster. But from the visuals shown in the video as well as the stills found online, I noticed that the movie has a lot of bold colors and deep shadows. So I brought those bold colors and shadows into the poster. What stood out to me were Sadie Frosts character which made a cool silhouette and the three women wearing masks. Together they made a interesting composition for a movie poster (in my thoughts). Also I skewed the angle for a more dramatic effect and better use of the poster size. I had fun working with a limited palette. It came out very bold. I hope you like it.

Silent Hill: Downpour, Gravestone Submission.

So I entered the Silent Hill: Downpour, create your own gravestone contest. This is the design I went with. The rule said to create the creepiest gravestone. A lot of submissions I saw went with a demented monster. My interpretation is that silent hill is very sad and frightening. A lot of things are subtle, psychologically scary, not really in your face frightening. That's what I tried going with. If I were to see a sculpture like this, corroded, vandalized and dilapidated from which once was beautiful. It would stick in my mind. Just how Silent hill is. It has two sides, the somewhat normal, sad, cold and eerie environment and the other frightening, deformed, hellish side.
