Charlie&Stuff

a variety of little charlie sketches, with some other stuff mixed in.

loose sketch and thumbs...

These are a few thumbs from THE GRAVE DOUG FRESHLEY pin-up I did for my friends Josh and Marv.


These are for an upcoming cover idea... it has a running theme.


and this sketch is just from me sitting around letting the pen wander wherever it felt like going.

musical sketch

rough sketch of a poster idea I had for fun.

really quick...

sketch of my character, Squeezel, from a comic idea I've been kicking around.

Practice sketching

Honestly, until the last few weeks I never really inked with a brush to any large extent. My education in inking involved tech-pens. Since I decided I'm going to do "Stretch of the Imagination" largely in brush, Ive been practicing a bit.

This was done all in brush...

and this was me playing around with coloring it.


Now it's time for me to get to penciling pages.

Ink Sketch: Stretch of the Imagination

Doing some prep work for my "Stretch of the Imagination" idea. Since the stories I write will involve me, this includes the first self-portrait that I've done in a few years. The drawings in this picture were done with a brush pen(pentel black 101) and an Office Max gel pen 0.7. It feels good to get back to messy materials, but I have to remember to be carefull not to smear the ink as I work... especially with the gel pen.
