IF: Scary

Friday the 13th has always been one of my favorite horror series. Here is a quick doodle I did for Illustration Friday.

Little Book of Monsters: Slugosaurus

Yikes!!

Little Book of Monsters: Screech

Another Monster!

Daily Drawings.......again.

Ok, so I'm trying to do daily drawings again. It sucks racking up a crap load of debt and barely using my new "skills". So use them I shall! I started another blog to post them at so I don't clutter up this one with a bunch of doodles that probably shouldn't even see the light of day. click here to go there now.

Little Book of Monsters: Teddy Snare

Monsters could be anywhere! Watch out!!

Lets go to sleep and never wake up!

TWO DAYS IN A ROW!

Here's a quick little picture I did for Illustration Friday.

Rejoice despite the fact this world will tear you to shreds

Holy Crap a Post!!! You must be shaking with glee right now! I know I would be if I were in your shoes.

This past weekend Ann and I showed at APE up in San Francisco! It was amazing! I had a great time, met a lot of amazing people and actually sold some of my work!

This is what our booth looked like. Magical?! I know, right!



These are the two zines I was selling.



Here are a couple illustrations from inside them.






Can't wait till next year!

Here we come to a turning of the season

So yeah, I haven't been doing quite as well as I had hoped in the updating blog department, but I've been really busy with work and life and stuff and things..... Anyway enough excuses, I will try to do better in the future.

Ann and I have been wanting to do some collaborations for a while now so this weekend we finally started. Here are a couple stop motion tests we did. It was a lot of fun working with her and trying to figure out how to do everything.





Have no fear music is on the way, these were just tests.

I've studied my flaws in your reflection and put them to rights with savage correction

Here are a couple sketches I did today on my quest to start making art by hand again.

And with bees in her breath and the rest of her ringing they'll sting through her chest with a force hard and beating

Here is my contribution to Illustration Friday. The prompt was swarm.



I thought I would post the initial sketch I did of the bee as I think I like it better then the finished product. Why is it that always happens?

So raise a glass to turnings of the season and watch it as it arcs towards the sun

The computer beckoned.. but hey I like the results. One day I'll make real art again.

And I will sleep out in the glade just by the giant tree just to be closer when my spirit's pulled away

Holy crap I made a picture without a computer for a change! I don't know what came over me.

And how do we maintain our buoyancy in this salty lake of shit and tears and murder and disease?

On empty rings around your heart the world just screams and falls apart

I finally found some time to do an Illustration Friday and this is my second post this week! I'm kicking some ass!

Mark my words, I might be something someday

Ryan's 2011 New Year's Resolutions:

The Illustrated Edition

Ok, so yeah, I'm like a few weeks late in posting this, but hey, you should be happy I'm posting at all with my track record. So stop your complaining and enjoy!

Might do something I'd be proud of someday.

My 4th year film is done and out there on the interweb! this one was mostly done using flash and then composited in after effects.

Might write something I might want to say to you someday

Two pictures in one month!!! I'm on fire!

Might paint something I might want to hang here someday

Woot! Hey look a pretty picture!

Nobody works and nobody plays and all of there dreams have melted away

Hey look another post! I'm on fire!! And this one includes some artwork.... well sort of.
I redesigned this blog and added a picture for the header finally. Look it's just right up there and isn't it pretty. I'm going to have to call this one a big win for me and there is nothing you can do about it.

Ok so that makes 3 posts for 2010, see you in a year or so.

Trying to find the perfect match between pretentious and pop

You know what I just realized? I don't post very much. Just thought I would let you know, that I know. You may now resume your regularly scheduled day. Thank you for the time and sorry for any inconvenience.
