I just came across this “rubber hose” style animation by the great Carlos Nine and his son Lucas. Carlos Nine (pronounced Neenyay) is an amazing Argentine artist who publishes most of his work via France. His work is wonderfully strange and sensual and seems to come from a different era, I really love this guys stuff.
-and check out Carlos Nine’s website too.
Cute little rejected sketches waiting for your love, approval and brains.
zombie babies need love too
maybe they could find a home on the "Raisin Brain Crunch" cereal box
I whipped up some cowboys for a friend recently for a possible western styled gig but it turns out I made a wrong turn at Albuquerque, they needed critters not cowpokes, so I thought I’d share em with y’all.

This is my second stab at drawing my FB friends he’s my nephew Nick Parks but his um “nickname” is Chester. He is a really creative musician and artist now living in Portland, Oregon.
I like “comfort” movies. Comfort movies are like old friends that just let you be yourself and don’t judge or guilt you out they just bring comfort and a sweet sadness that makes you feel not-so-alone. One of my favorite comfort movies is Amalie which I watched last night and so today I felt compelled to sketch her from the bit where she’s in the photo booth in the Zorro costume.

Back in the day 2 of my best buds Mark and Jeff used to have plenty of “arty” adventures, including making arty short films on video. My favorite title was “Burnt Pogens” I was thinking of them in light of my “draw all my pals on Face Book” project and Imagined what if there was an animated documentary on the life and times of Mark & Jeff. It would have to be called Burnt Pogens, so here is my rough idea of what they would look like as animated characters. I scratched these out from memory so unfortunately I don’t have any photo reference to show, but I think I caught their spirit pretty well.

My friend and amazing photographer RJ was in the studio today so I scratched out a sketch.
If you need a fashion photographer he’s top notch so hire him before he hits the big time and you can’t afford him.
Go check out his work, there’s a link to his site on the right column under Friends.

I had the pleasure of watching the Martin Scorsesi documentary on George Harrison “Living in the Material World” with one of my oldest friends. Both of us being long time fans of Harrison were not disappointed and I recommend it to anyone interested in who the man really was. As I watched, of course I had to scratch out a portrait. Cheers.
