drink & draw: end of an era

Well, our beloved Murph's pub is closing at the end of the week so last night was the last time we will ever drink & draw in its dank recesses. The weekly tradition will live on though! We just don't know where yet.





Does Superman cry? A hot topic of debate last week




Drawing Simpsons characters from memory: actually really hard...


Robot arm

Drink & Draw catch up

Hawkman:



Sci-fi:



Two Medusas:



Self-explanatory:



Also, Driftwood Saves the Whales by James Davidge is now out. Look for my cover depicting gigantic Inuit sea goddess Sedna in bookstores across Canada!

Drink & Draw catch up

These first two are characters I came up with for a sci-fi story... to be published in the next Vicious Ambitious book! It's called TEENS IN LOVE IN SPACE and I think it's the first thing I've ever written.



TEENS:



The only life drawing I've done in a very long time...



PS: Calgary Herald subscribers, I illustrated the cover story for this Friday's Swerve magazine. Look out for it! It's free!

drink & draw menagerie

Some sketches from the past couple of Wednesdays. What you see are: a space guy (a hazy nod to Arthur Suydam's Cholly & Flytrap), a mermaid (I think the challenge was old person + dolphin), Scarecrow, Captain America, Black Cat, Elektra, Jonah Hex, a space kid, a scuba diver, a Viking, a mouse, and a mouse girl with rockets (in the fashion of Dynamite Warrior).

Sketches

I should fill up sketchbooks faster than I do, but it takes forever! I draw too small.
