Thanksgivin/Birthday Bash!!!

Just celebrated my 25th B-day and Thanksgiving this past week. Spent some quality-ass time with friends and family. Good times were had by all! Here is some stuff from said week. ENJOY!

Below is a birthday card from my head of story, the talented and handsome Phil Craven:


My niece, Kyla, is only in middle school and is already rockin' some art, anime style. The first image is a portrait of yours truly as an anime chick, which is not too far from the truth. The second is a page given to me from her sketchbook.



A memory sketch of a chick I saw at Costco:

Best monkey drawings ever and of course...

So I have been cranking away at work. We are encouraged to work quick and rough, which has actually been quite fun and liberating. I'm sure you fellow artists know how we can get caught up in making drawings look clean and pretty, and sometimes even end up killing them. Here are the best drawings of Monkey that I have ever done in my life and I am truly proud to present them:

Best Monkey Drawing Ever


Second Best Monkey Drawing Ever


And of course...Monkal Jackson:



Also, it is a complete coincidence that Lady Lafyatis' last post is also about monkeys. For her last MJ post, click here.

The Month of MJ: A Lafyatis/Mercado Joint

As explained on Lady Lafyatis' blog, in a fitting tribute, for this month, Diana and I have both agreed to take turns posting doodles somehow related to our beloved King of Pop. (This is the second post of this series, click the link above to see the official and awesome kick-off drawing by Diana.)

Another Miyazaki Classic!

Just saw "Porco Rosso" recently and loved it!!! Loved the world and the characters, especially Porco himself. Beautiful visuals and animation as always. Way more charming than that Babe pig.
