2022 was a good year.

I hope I get to spend a little more time with this universe and flesh it out more.

Two preliminary sketches for canceled projects from earlier this year.
One was for a Netflix series on Alice Roosevelt and the other for a charity event.
Very different genres, but both would’ve been fun to complete.

-The Clockmaker.

Two approaches for the same idea. The first is still the largest piece I’ve done and donated in 2014.
The second was for a show I had in Indianapolis in 2015.

November.
2002.
Charcoal over oil on paper.
15”x20”. (I think)
SOLD.
I owe this piece a lot to any of the successes I’ve had as an illustrator. She became my first ‘fan-favorite’ and landed me my first art director job when the lady that would end up hiring me bought it from a small show.

Working on a private commission from 2023.
Rendering the clockwork gears in the automaton desk definitely took the longest.
Lots of thin layers of pencil to get that shine the way I wanted it.

I didn’t plan this piece out at all. Which is very unlike me. But my friend and I talked about the idea for the shoot and wanted something ‘Hammer-y’ and this is where I went with it.

The seafoam moon just felt like the way to go here. It's got a vintage feel to it that I like.
I laid his base down in oil and tidied him up with indigo pencil.
The paper is toned with a heavy wash of Payne’s gray and indigo blue watercolor. Once that dries, I can draw and paint on top of it.
