IF: Visitors


There are still a lot of little things I want to touch up on this. If I do any more to it this week I'll update my post.

IF: Captain II

Just a quick sketch of my idea of Captain Nemo that I thought I would post.

IF: Captain





















I was trying to decide between Captain Hook or
Captain Nemo this week. Hook just came out when I was sketching. This is rough color sketch done in Painter. I have also posted my initial sketch and the line drawing I used in Painter.

IF: Emergency

It has been some time since I have posted anything. I want to try to get back in the habit of it. Like the commercial says 'life comes at you fast' and so many of the little things eat up time.

I really pictured this idea as a full spread for a
picture book. I wouldn't be able to put as much
detail into it as would have liked this week so I just did the characters for now. The elephant is the fireman at the zoo, using his trunk to put out the fires. This was done from a pencil drawing and colored in Painter.

IF: Cars


An image of Mr. Toad from The Wind in the Willows came to mind for the theme of cars.



I want to experiment with a few things painting this Illustration. I won't get it done this week so I thought I would go ahead and post the drawing. If I finish it I'll post it later.


I also have a color sketch started. So far it has been done in Painter with the Simple Water & Watercolor brushes.

IF: Signs




Just a last minute idea for a spot illustration.
A couple of tigers using sign language for "I love you".

IF: Remember




Remember to take your medicine.

Maybe that is why the dinosaurs are extinct. They
forgot to take their medicine.

I didn't get to post my polar image last week. I didn't
get it finished. I still haven't finished it but I thought
I would post it as a work in progress. If you click here it will take you it.


I apologize for my first link. I thought I double checked it before I submitted it. I had too many http's in it.
