To Cap Off This Week Of Music, My Crowning Achievement: Brighten Up Sourpuss. This Is The Fullest,

Season 3 Episode 14 in which a man, in order to catch a monster, must become a monster himself and everybody draws, sculpts and scribbles gargoyle-art. 

This MLB postseason has been a stressful time for Orioles fans (and all others for that matter). I've taken to drawing O's logos while I listen to the game to reduce my freakouts. I think they should randomize the birds on player's hats. One bird a piece! Dibs on angry baby-bird. If you're interested in the logo history, check out this awesome post.

My first proper sculpt and paint. Seemed only fitting that it be Hellboy as that continues to be my most valued media for both art and storytelling. The white figure at the bottom was my actual first stab that melted in the oven which taught me the valuable lesson of creating a proper armature (and using clay that wasn’t many years old). More sculpts coming.

Original Beige Super Sculpey with acrylic paints applied with various brushes. Base is a piece of pine with medium-gauge wire for armature covered in aluminum foil to pad out bulky areas.

Got a new segment coming in which I illustrate Legends Of Rock (and most likely other genres). Hope you like.

My buddy does an epic Wrestlemania party each year, so I made some "get out of a shot" cards for the various games where when you lose, you drink. I think it's the only way to get people pumped about wrestling if they're not already. I went with a few famous finishers here. I'm new to wrestling but I already know I missed the best guys, namely Hulk and Macho Man.

Bird One: Bufflehead

Kicked off the new bird-poster project in earnest today. I’ve a duck to show for it. Messing around with a few art styles and so far this is the one that is sticking. Not something I’ve really done before but I’m liking the direction. I especially like the slight caricature look of this guy while retaining that aviary nobility… Much more to come. This is 1/30 (I think).

Lobster Bird

This is a turtled lobster bird.  It’s a very sad combination of things that came to me while staring at a wall.  If you want to know, this is how most of my ideas come to me, staring at walls.

Every year, I host a dumpling party in which we make a heck of a lot of dumplings and watch a whole mess of movies starring a selected, beloved, actor. This year, it's John Cusack, so I drew him on a poster for the FOURTH annual ae Dumpling Party.

March - Hellboy.

Continuing the 2015 calendar project, this month we have the incomparable style of Mike Mignola. By far my favorite comic artist and writer. Here we have HB and Kate Corrigan enjoying a bowl of ramen at Chuko in Prospect Heights Brooklyn, the location of my girlfriend's and my first date.

I was working on some icons for a live music app today and somehow I got to messing around.  What isn’t surprising is that skulls were the subject of my messing around.
