This week’s sketch continues our ink-wash countdown to the series finale of “LOST”. Our subject this week is Ken Leung, who portrays Miles Straume, the son of one of the Dharma Initiative’s main scientists and a man who can hear the dead speak… I couldn’t resist the little gag. Definitely not my most successful attempt with this technique, but you can’t win them all. READ MORE

Our Sketch o’the Week series of ink-wash caricatures of the cast of “LOST” continues with this one of Naveen Andrews, who plays the former Iraqi Republican guardsman and interrogator Sayid Jarrah. I was informed by my neighbor Kim, a fellow LOST fanatic, that if my next subject was not Sayid she would have me killed. I live to draw another day. READ MORE

This week we continue our Sketch o’the Week ink wash caricature series countdown to the May 23rd finale of “LOST” with the fetching Evangeline Lilly AKA Kate Austen. Each week I am planning on doing one of these ink wash studies of one of the major LOST characters. That means nine more until the finale… or until I get bored with it. I’ll try and stay focused.

Rather than my usual pencil drawing I thought I’d try something different for the SOTW this week. This is an ink wash study of LOST star Matthew Fox. READ MORE

I’m too busy to do a regular sketch this week so here are a handful of rough sketches for a (fairly) big storyboard job I am working on. I removed any references that might give anything from the film away. The following is part of the opening and closing of a short animated segment where these two squirrels are gag characters… A bunch of other stuff happens in the scene, and then we go back to the squirrels… I haven’t done storyboards since college, but it’s a fun and interesting exercise… pure drawing and storytelling with little concern over the finishing process.

Last year I participated in a charity fundraiser called “National Doodle Day“, which auctions off drawings and sketches by a host of artists, authors, actors, directors and celebrities each year in May. The proceeds benefit Neurofibromatosis Inc., a “non-profit organization whose mission is to provide services to individuals with Neurofibromatosis (NB) and their families. NB is an unpredictable disease that cases tumors to form on your nerves, sometimes resulting in disfigurement, paralysis, deafness, blindness or cancer.”- From the Doodle Day website. I received my packet for my doodle contribution a week or two ago, and took the liberty to do my “sketch o’the week” directly… READ MORE

Here’s a tiny little study of Johnny Galecki of “The Big Bang Theory”… actual sketch size only about 3.5 inches tall. The Lovely Anna, the kids¬¨‚Ć and I all love this show. I don’t usually enjoy sitcoms but this one is a riot. Any comic book/Sci Fi geek will absolutely appreciate the inside jokes, and it’s smartly written so you don’t have to be a comic book/Sci Fi geek to enjoy it. READ MORE
