This up coming monday i'm going to try and get a part time designing job at a creative studio in town. I would like to get published for a living and travel around drawing a whole bunch. I'd be sort of a sketchcrawl billboard. :) Though i would not object to being an instudio artist for a entertainment company or a concept studio. :)

Oh, by the way, I did a new travel page. :)

I like this latest piece. Do you use your own color pallette? Every image just has a similar feel to it...no matter how dark or how bright the scene is. It works great as a whole. Hope to see more of your stuff. Good luck with the designing position.

Well, that's the thing.....the similiar color palette's i think are due to the extremeties of the hues that i pick for the lighting. oh by the way, i drew a car:

I know I haven't been posting very often. It's because I've been working my fingers to the bone! :D

I've always wanted people to see what I was up to in my sketchbooks....so without further ado. The past year-ish? I have the dates up on my site if anyone really wants to know.

Hi Dan
I Really like your line sketches. I had the strange feeling of Geoff Darrow's clinical attention to detail meeting Taiyou Matsumoto's surrealism in some of these ones. Really nice stuff ! glad you posted it :)
