This is the first one a series I am doing with women and masks. I love the sense of mystery and allurement of masks.

Weird Science!!!!

2006-09-05T21:43:00.000-07:00

I watched Weird Science over the weekend as research for this weeks art jumble. Topic being to draw any characters or scene from a John Hughes film. These were my submissions thus far. http://www.artjumble.blogspot.com/

I know it doesn't look like Kelly LeBrock, I wasn't going for an exact likeness. Otherwise I would have done HUGE lips, Large eyes and Ginormous hair. :P

This is my first time participating in Illustration Friday and this weeks topic was "Play" Here is what I came up with. I had a blast! 100% Photoshop.

It's a bird....it's a plane.....No...it's Superham!

I've been revisiting the farm girl and her pet pig who loves to play, especially the role of Superham, the farm hero and pig of steel. I plan on doing a bunch of sketches like this showing the games they play and the fun they have. Up, up and Awaayyy!

Comic con 2007 here we come!

2006-08-08T16:51:00.000-07:00

This is a drawing I did of the art dept at my work attending next years comic con. I had to draw it when I was told the dept would be attending the con next year for inspiration. I chose a simple style to illustrate it. Basically just straights and curves done in Flash.

Morsels Book FOR SALE!!!

2006-08-05T10:21:00.000-07:00

If you look to your right you'll see a big shiny "Buy it now" button. It is there for you to push. Don't be afraid. By pushing this magic button you'll be asking to purchase a beautiful art book put together by Kristen McCabe, Gary Ham and myself. We are all very proud of this book and think it's some of our best work to date. Act now though. This book is limited in it's production and won't be around for long.

We're back from Comic Con!

2006-07-28T20:37:00.000-07:00

We are back from Comic con and had a blast. I didn't take as many photos as I would have liked and can now think of a gazillion things I would liked to have taken snap shots of.

The Morsels booth had a bumpy ride at the con this year. We thought we had a great location and it turns out we didn't get much traffic and people often told us they couldn't find us. The con is always unpredicable and we learn something new every year. We had tons of fun though and enjoyed seeing the con veterans and meeting new people. The best part about the con is hanging out after the con. This year we spent the last night on the town with Paul Davies and what a fun night it was.

Well... enjoy these photos and hope to see you all next year!!!!

Some recent sketches. The nail polish girl was inspired by Jack Cole, hence the blacked out eyes.

I figured it was time to dust off some animal designs of mine and put them to use again. For those of you who don't know, the animals were done for a children's book my ex-wife Lauren wrote based on some wrapping paper I drew one christmas eve. My brother suggested I do some cartoons with them, so thats what I did. Last night I ran home and drew up 3. Here is one of them.

Sugar and Spice and Everything nice

Just having some fun at Willy's expense, but why can't there be a Miss'es?

She's not your average 5-0

2006-05-14T15:07:00.000-07:00

Made some tiny alterations and added a light wash per Scott's suggestion. It's supposed to be a VERY light wash, but with this crappy lcd monitor I'm using I can't tell it it's too light or too dark. Guess I won't truely know what I did until I get to my work monitor.

She's too sexy for this jail

2006-05-12T08:58:00.000-07:00

Here is yet another convicted love piece. Her walk gave me some problems, so I did two versions. I think I still prefer the original on the left more, while others lean towards the second. How say you?

The inking approach was influenced by Hank Ketchum, so I made the number on the inmates uniform Hank's birthdate.

Genie, that's III

I hope boobies don't offend anyone.

So rude of me...

2006-05-08T11:33:00.000-07:00

I forgot that we took one with Kristen too. How could I have been so rude to leave her out before?!?! Please forgive me Kristen Shmisten Bo Bisten.
