Posted in crayons, doodle, gargoyles, illustration, just for fun, rewind time, white stripes on Aug 18th, 2010
I drew this back in…um, some time in the 2000s…anyway, it was an entry for the Monthly Gargoyles Contest. The only rule was to use crayons to color the piece and, of course, it had to relate the T.V. show. I like the pattern I put on Meg’s wings, but I wish I had done [...]

I’m always on the lookout for great repeating patterns I can use in my designs.

I’ll start this sketchblog off with something simple… This is an illustration I did based on a few recurring dreams I’ve had in the past year. I won’t get into all the details because they’re kind of personal and hard to explain, but I like how the picture came out. media: pencil sketch + photoshop [...]
