I did a piece for Gallery Nucleus’ Power In Numbers showcase and it’s now available HERE! I had reread Cloud Atlas recently and wanted to make something about one of the final sentiments in the book, “My life amounts to no more than one drop in a limitless ocean. Yet what is any ocean, but a multitude of drops?”. 

More drawings for sale!

It’s been far too long since I’ve updated this little sketchblog, but I finally have time to sketch things again. Here’s a sketch commission for pluww, who asked for a cat playing with some swallows. I’ve spent so much time drawing people over the past semester that I’d almost forgotten how much fun animals can be to draw.

I’m making a piece for this and there’s so many awesome artists involved, if you’re at all artistically inclined it would be great to see more people submitting work! After all it’s the perfect season for drawing ghosts.

Anonymous asked: you should try your hand in tattooing... you seem like one of those illustrator slash tattooists

Yeah, I’ve always been interested in tattooing, I’ve designed a whole bunch of tattoos for people. Unfortunately most apprenticeships are unpaid and I can’t afford that so I’m sticking with illustration for now.

elemei asked: Uhm! Video games... Something/someone from Legend of Zelda or Assassin's Creed, perhaps? Anything/anyone! (Unless you'd like more specificity?)

As much as I do love Assassin’s Creed, Legend of Zelda definitely wins out! Though I’ve only ever played through parts of the various games, lacking my own console, it’s one of my absolute favorites and with any luck I’ll get to play them all the way through sometime.

heroinmethwitch-deactivated2012 asked: silent hill characters??

Unfortunately I’m far too nervous a person to play anything even vaguely horror related so I’ve never been able to play Silent Hill. Heard great things though!

Warm-up sketches

Hey everyone! Sorry for the lack of updates, been struggling with a nasty art block but it’s slowly being overthrown. I thought it might be fun to do another series of rough sketch requests like last summer just to keep me making things and help me get back into gear. So send me a note with an idea and I’ll do one a day for a week or something. We’ll see how it goes!

Just a little Dark Souls inspired sketch, taking a quick break from schoolwork.

Someone asked if I could post a larger version of my Journey sketch so here it is! It’s a pretty small sketch to begin with but definitely still a favourite.

Anonymous asked: How long does it take you to sketch something? Your blending is so clean and controlled looking.

I’m very slow, though not as slow as I used to be, but I do spend a lot of time refining finished sketches. Usually it takes me at least a day to get a sketch done, more for any fully fleshed out work.

Here’s some designs I did for Rule of Cool Gaming, had a lot of fun doing these!

vinnora asked: Journey (the ps3 game)?

Yes, Journey! Such a gorgeous game, I can never get over how lovely everything looks while still being so simple. I always find it curious that any art I see for this game only has a single figure, since one of the most effective parts is the two-player aspect.

mrgid asked: Sketch Request: Favourite Cartoon

Does Tekkon Kinkreet count? I haven’t really watched many cartoons.

RE: last post

(I would love to have an excuse to draw some video game stuff if any of you are into that kind of thing. Just saying.)
