A Nightmare On Fulton Street

Thank you so much to everyone that came out to the art show! I had a blast and was happy to see friends, family, and new friends. Here are some of the pieces that I featured from the art show. I will have pictures and video of the show coming soon!
Nacho! One of my all time favorite movies inspired me to create this. I think Nacho Libre has a good variety of different looks throughout the movie. I had fun recreating all of his costumes. Next I plan on giving all the other movie characters a shot with my design style.
Thriller Night. Michael Jackson is one of the biggest influences in my life when it comes to dance and art. I was always scared as a little kid of the Thriller music video. I now found the courage to recreate one of my all time favorites! The werewolf transformation.
Z Carvings. Growing up I watched and learned a lot about Zorro since my dad was always a big fan. I revisited this older piece to add some lighting and a better background. Zorro will always be one of my favorite heroes.
The Monster Squad. Nothing gets me in the Halloween spirit more than the original Universal monsters. I wanted to draw my own chibi style take on them. I felt the need to leave them a bit sketchy and unfinished looking. I like the rawness and fresh way they turned out.
MJ Monstar. One of my good friends, David Jite, gave me the idea to draw what Michael Jordan would look like if one of the aliens from the Space Jam movie stole his powers. Michael seemed to have handled all the aliens with the Looney Toons as a normal human. Who knows how awesome he would have been as a monstar!

Hey, Take it easy!

One of my favorite movies is Nacho Libre.  I have always wanted to do character designs for all the funny characters in the movie.  Here is my first run at Nacho!  I want to give him his alternate costumes next.

Kitty Avengers Assemble


A lot of my students at LA's Best love Hello Kitty.  I decided to create this illustration of the Avengers in the style of Hello Kitty.  I made it as a print and gave it to my students on my last day of work.  I plan on adding Hawkeye and Black Widow to the group soon.

Sahab - Scarecrow


One of the most talented people I know is my friend, Sahab.  His album, "Scarecrow," is one of my favorites to listen to while I draw.  This is a illustration of Sahab I drew awhile back.  I decided to color it and throw a sketch of his cat in there with him.  You can check out Sahab's album on itunes.

Practice

I have been practicing my figure drawing and have been lucky enough to get some extra tips and pointers from my old professor and mentor, Ken Jones.  I feel like I hang on every word when he speaks! haha Here are some of the latest poses you would find in my sketch pad.

Chibi Chiho

I recently have been reading the Wizard of Oz graphic novels drawn by Skottie Young.  He has always been one of my favorite artists and his artwork in those books has inspired me once again.  My girlfriend has been wanting me to draw her as a chibi character for awhile now so I came out with this sketch.

The Last ISO



Tron: Legacy is one of my favorite movies. I've been drawing a lot of characters from the movie and decided to finalize Quorra. I am thinking about finalizing more characters up next. Everything was finalized in illustrator.
