Had to get a bunch of pics of the Hintz Family Alumni Center for the office and got many shots of the local friendly duckies. The one above is among my personal favorites.

Gatoooooos!

(Pencil, ink, Photoshop).

Commissioned piece I drew for a friend of mine, who requested it as a birthday present for a friend of his. Style based off of the anime/manga, Chi’s Sweet Home.

365 Challenge: Day 8

Ash Owl (Pencil, charcoal, Prismacolor marker and bit of Photoshop).

You're probably thinking, "Ash owl?? That's just a stumpy great grey owl!" Well, if you wish to see it that way, then by all means. This piece was based off of an idle thought I had on the wildlife in Morrowind and figured, "hey, it'd be neat if they had an indigenous species of owl that's resilient to the ashy climates." Then BAM - ash owl. It's essentially a miniaturized, rounder version of said great grey owl (roughly the size of an American football).

"This. Is. Bullshit." (Pencil, ink, bit of Photoshop)

My OC, Bob Corgman shares my exact sentiments in regards to today's sub-zero temperatures. He would much rather be curled up in his wing chair next to the fireplace, in his study, sipping on a glass of 30 year-old scotch.

Meh, don't really care for this one. Kinda had to whip this one up in a jiffy since I spent most of the day working on other stuff.

New Year, New Challenge

Happy New Year, y'all! Hope your holiday season went spectacularly. Mine was...interesting, and the same must be said of 2013. Here's hoping that 2014 brings greater opportunities for everybody!

This year, I've decided to take on the daunting 365-Day Illustration challenge I've been seeing all over the internet in attempts to re-ignite my passion to draw on a regular basis (and in turn, list new Fidget Art! goodness once more). Also, I definitely need to hone my skills *cough*. Not planning on sticking to any specific theme, just gonna draw whatever I feel like at the time. Expect many a Dunmer, especially my OC, Andril to be drawn.


Day 1: Budgies! (Pencil on 5.5x8" paper) Sorry, the lighter detail shading has been lost in the scanning.

New Print!

"A Very Corgman Christmas" 8x10" Illustration Print

Bob Corgman the Welsh Corgi is back, and he's brought his family! It's that time of year when the Corgman family is decked out in kitschy, holiday-themed sweaters for their annual Christmas family portrait. Afterwards, Bob will shudder off the tackiness via sipping on a large glass of vanilla brandy and smoking his favorite pipe. All while listening to some good ol' Bing Crosby and The Andrew Sisters on the radio.

Also, Junior is NOT amused.

This is a limited edition print available only during November and December. After that, it'll be gone 'til next holiday season, so snap it up while it lasts! I also have a 5x7" version available.

(The oval shaping on the print itself isn't actually cut off on the top and left - it's just some weird cropping on the listing pic).

Also, until November 22nd, take 10% off your entire order by using coupon code EARLYSHOPPER.
