Well here I am. After a wake up call from a former classmate things have been in overdrive.

These next sketches are for a novella I am helping out with. It started out with just sketches and now we seem to have evolved into doing the entire layout of the book.

Here you go:

Here is an update to the BPS project. I just have to finish up her hair and background:

You know I love to resurrect old stuff. Well here is a project that I got started on a long time ago and am now just really getting into it.

This is what I do for work. I make things that don't exist yet, happen. Take Tony Stewart's redesigned car fro 2010. From gray car to new car in only a couple of hours. Hmm. Thrilling.

2008-01-09T23:38:00.001-05:00

Alright guys I saw a guy on a forum do a pinup for his helmet and i absolutely had to have it. Only one problem. I had no idea where he got the sticker for his helmet. So i am going to make one. Here it is still a work in progress but the skin portion is in and the rest is Latex and Vinyl. Don't have a clue as to how i am going to get that texture to work but i will keep you updated.

Some works in Progress........

2007-09-20T23:53:00.000-04:00

Just wanted to get this up as i was working on it for a couple of days. Don't get me wrong this is something like a doodle while you watch tv. Oh a commercial is on, draw some on a half naked lady. This is what I do when I am not doing stuff around the house. Hence this being about a couple of days old.

Oh well ........ I digress.

Just a bit More.............

Old Stuff

2007-09-06T18:52:00.000-04:00

OK I'm back and I have some old stuff mixed in here. It is even amazing that I got through school or held down a job with all of the doodling that I did.

Here we go for todays posting.

Alright, Alright I'm here. Sheesh!!!

2007-08-22T20:48:00.001-04:00

I obviously didn't just run home and start adding things to the blog. So now I will start.

This is just a portion. I have so much more, I better check the capacity of this place.

Anyway Comments are always welcome. I will publish fresh stuff if and when I get it.

Start 8/13/07

2007-08-15T13:02:00.000-04:00

Alright guys I am starting a sketch blog in order to force myself to draw. Hopefully I will knock off the corrosion and get to work. I will start off with some old pics, once I get to the house.

Oh yeah! I am a tame person normally, but if you are offended by bare breasts or nudity of any kind don't scroll up. C'mon, art without nudity gimme a break.

P.S. All works are dedicated to Ross Zirkle, UK Professor of Printmaking and Drawing who pushed me.

ZIRKLE: SHIT JOE!!!
