The Captain



I got inspired to do some caricatures of old school NBA players that I loved. Here's the Captain to start with. We'll see how far I can get.

Don't Be Cruel


So I saw this great idea from someone else's blog. They did it with some well-know drawings of Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, etc. I wanted to do it with some old cassette album covers that meant something to me. Plus, if I can find an old copy of the tape, I can actually paste it onto this and frame it.

Brian Gminski Lee

This was a Photoshop crop/super-impose job that I was asked to do. It'll be made into a card.

HellBaby


Another card re-do/re-coloring. I had to re-draw this card on the computer since it was first hand-drawn.

Super-Fred


This is a re-color of an old card. I have been really into going over some old stuff that I've done and adding color. Fred is from France and he is involved in saving Yorkies.

General Robert E. Lee

I did this pen and ink drawing of Robert E. Lee a few years ago and I wanted to add a little color to it. I thought it was an interesting drawing.

Scarlet Macaw



This was a birthday card that I did last year of a parrot/macaw. I re-colored it as a scarlet macaw, and I plan to give this card to the same person this year! Here's the original too.

Augustine of Hippo

So I am designing the cover for a book my dad's writing called "EXPLORING THE ROOTS OF SPIRITUALITY" and the design is going to incorporate a bunch of famous theologians: Francis of Assisi, Aquinas, Ambrose, etc. This is the first one I did: Saint Augustine of Hippo. (I'm going to try and get one done a day.)

Dooney & Bourke


I made a birthday card out of a "Coach" bag last year and my co-worker requested a Dooney & Bourke bag (mainly because of the initials). I fashioned this on Illustrator. I can't wait to give this to her next month.

ARRT Mascot

This was a mascot I'm working on for a theatre company (Actors Refuge Repertory Theatre) in Boston, MA.

Sumo (Rough Draft)

I've been wanting to do something with sumo wrestlers for a while. This is a rough sketch I came up with. I have a feeling this image will come back again soon.

Tiger Jar


This was an idea I had for a long time. I found a great way to re-use old glass jars and make them into pieces of art with just the help of a Sharpie. Be careful not to smudge the ink too quick. Also, the cylindrical jar is a unique, though challenging canvas. It just takes a little concentration to make a really cool drawing, and it can be used to store things.

Tiger

Went to the driving range today. Got me inspired to get golfing, like Tiger. Though this guy looks more like Mike Jordan on the golf course.

Infernal Affairs

I re-watched "Infernal Affairs" again with some friends tonight.
Far superior to the Oscar-winning re-make: "The Departed".

"21" Movie

Watched the movie "21" a couple of nights ago.
(Eh, it was alright.)
