Illustration Friday - SPENT

Here's one for IF...my interpretation of "Spent" in honor of the economy and the housing/mortgage debacle.  If you have a home, looks like you'll be spending lots of money keeping it in the future!  Just one artist's viewpoint, for what its worth.

The Finished Illustration

Thought you might like to see how my son's web comic illo turned out.


 As you can see, it's quite a bit more refined than the previous post.  I worked really hard trying to give it a feeling like a video game cover.

Detail 2
The colors are a little washed out, but all in all I think it turned out really well.  My "client" was super-happy and that's really what counts, isn't it?

Illustration Friday - Renewal





This week's topic is renewal.  How appropriate.  We've just renewed the decade.  Welcome to 2010.  It's hard to believe we're ten years into a new milennium...especially considering that we all thought (or at least some people thought) that the whole world including the internet would come crashing down in the year 2000.  It's been a tough ten years, but through it all I've tried to keep my faith and maintain my focus and drive to become a successful freelance illustrator.  On that note, I've just gotten asked to bid on a new gig that hopefully will start my year off with some cash-ola in my pocket!  Groovy!

So here's my take on the Renewal theme.  I think of sleep...a chance for the body to renew, and chance for spirit to refresh, a chance for mind to soar.  So sweet dreams!  I hope you're feeling "renewed" in the morning!
