The secret treasure vault refurbished

Treasure/collection site now up and renovated. But it still needs a few bugs worked out due to the aging of my web site builder program. The fonts mainly Arial does not show correctly when you see my site in the latest FireFox or InternetExplorer. I think WebSiteCreator could use an update. Its showing as Times Roman. Going to have to figure out a work around in the mean time. I also may go back and add a few teeny animated surprises to the title pic. But over all I really think the new renovations turned out great. 

 
Also if you look carefully on my main site there is a secret way of getting to the treasure/collection site. Try and find it if you like.

Treasure Spike

Yes! Finally completed.
After all those delays due to things breaking like my computer and then there’s the constant interruptions. Its finally done. Speaking of interruptions, still get interrupted while I'm working. Most annoying when you get in the zone and you loose your place or thought possess on how you are going to do something. Some things just have lots of details and if you get distracted well, you get annoying mistakes.

Anyways its another Spike the tiger illustration and this time its for my treasure/collection half of my site which as been under refurbishment for over a year. Of course it will be a bit till I recalibrate things as I said before and organize things. Oh yeah here's the original drawings and previous completed illustration with the same theme in case you're interested. 

 Full image^
 Close up so you can see some details. ^

FYI
The illustration was completed the same way as the last one with PhotoShop using the digital graphics technique. Oh yeah and another thing, in case you haven't noised or maybe don't care, (too bad!)I didn't bother adding the blue spiked collar since you wouldn't really see it properly any how. It would just look too weird and make him look like he had horns and we all know that Spike isn't evil. Besides horns belong on other animals and things like a tyger. That’s a creature that looks like a wolf that has spikes on its back or some place and curly horns on its head like a ram of some sort. A little trivia for you. ;) Also the treasure chest was actually recycled from an earlier project and used on that part of my site originally only now its refurbished. Refurbishing seems to be the thing these days, am I right? :)

Actual progress

Happy to say I actually got some of my illustration done. Also good news, its almost done.
After all the stuff that happened this year with stuff breaking with my computer being one of them things have finally settled down enough for me to actually get some things completed. Hopefully now I can finally get caught up not to mention get back to some paying jobs soon considering my job provider has been keeping in touch too. Thank goodness. Hears hoping for things to get better.

Expect to see something here soon, just not on my website for a bit. Still have to reconfigure that since the great data move to my new computer.

Monarch Butterfly tee-shirt 1

Finally got the thing done after many distractions. Actually it was completed weeks ago but only recently got around to posting about it.

It’s a bit of an experiment. I’m using a heat transfer that I designed and for the first time I used it as a guide for airbrushing the artwork.

Pro, it was easy to airbrush light colours on a multi-coloured tee such as this tie dye tee I made a number of years ago. Con, you can’t place frisket or some other paint blockers on to already painted areas on the heat transfer image or you may run into annoyances like peeling paint. With that said with I just repainted those areas that peeled, by hand then reairbrushed the damaged areas.  No problem.  Then I added some very small gems on the antennas for that extra something.  Finally I gave it a few shots of clear coat just to make sure. Hopefully that did the trick for making it last with out scratches for instance.

Over all it looks great but just not sure if I can heat set the design. Still have to figure that one out.

I have another look-a-like in the works and hopefully I can work on it soon. 





Also can be seen on my web site soon.

Changing direction.

Well I kind of changed my mine temporarily about finding a new web site after thinking about it. Instead I’m going to use this really nice online portfolio that I found at one of my favorite haunts for fellow artists.
Its really great because its quite generous with its space regarding how much content you can load in there regarding your works. Plus when you get the hang of using the stuff to customize your site, its easy to put together.  So for now going to use this as a mini backup web site for a more stable way of showing the people who are behind these potential job opportunities and not worrying about the darn site being down.
That unfortunately always seems to happen to me when I have stuff to show with my original site. Its embarrassing and frustrating.
So anyway, for a free portfolio site this mini site for me is really great and hopefully stable enough so that in the future, I don’t go though any more of this nonsense.  There’s also a premium part of the site of course but I really don’t need that.
So any one needing a really good and generous place for your portfolio check out dunked.com.

Trying to stay enthusiastic

Looks like I started yet another personal project. Another Spike the tiger illustration this time for the other part of my site. See previous post about the drawings, completed project and renovated creative part of my site. It sure beats, being bummed out over my current situation. 

Oh yeah got rid of the "labels thing"  Felt it was pretty redundant since you can view current and previous art work at my web site. Going to replace that with something else soon.

Where are they????

Ugh what did I do with those tie-dye tees I did number of years ago, You know? The ones that are very similar to the ones I painted dolphins on?  Its so frustrating when you loose something that you really wanted to paint something on.  After I tie-dyed these pink and red glow-in-the -dark tees I put them away for awhile till I could use them for something. But now its like they fell in to the center of the earth and its driving me nuts now. But then so is every thing else these days. Like trying to make some cash. Yeah I know I’m not the only one in this situation ……..Aaaaaaaaack!

Just that I really wanted to paint some butterflies on them but instead I found every other tee I bought for the purpose of future decorating. So I settled on some other tie-dyed shirts that were similar that I also had put away earlier.  But instead of making a nice chalk print on the shirts, I got nothing. Yet more frustration. So now at that point I ran upstairs and made a few transfer prints from the printer and then ironed on those butterflies so I had a starting point for my painting.  Um no, I’m not cheating since I already drew these earlier elsewhere and fixed it up for this purpose.  OK so now I have something ready to paint but I’m still stumped as to where those other tees are.

Tapping in

This latest vector illustration represents “tapping in” to your talents and making them work for you. Kind of like milking a cow or in this case collecting sap from a tree and making syrup. Of course instead of collecting sap you’re collecting coins. Can now be viewed at my web site too.

Its me again..... completed.

Completed this a few weeks ago but only showing it now. See previous postings.
Media used was fine textured paper with markers, coloured pencils and fine black marker. Normally I would use ink pen but those things have had better days although they don’t look too bad on the out side. But time has warped them from the inside I think and sadly. Oh well. 




Yet another thing that was making me pretty frustrated and bummed out lately. My web site as yet again had down time. Its back up now but has been down one too many times. Going to have to find a new place but its just so hard to find a new decent place with all the things I’m looking for. Got to get my own domain eventually.  


Prospects for new jobs still sucks but one job I just sent a quote and proposal to looks very promising. They want a statue painting which is very similar to a painting I made a few years ago featuring a cat statue I doodled earlier and then painted  in a tropical setting. I really hop I can get this job. I know I can really shine in this one.

Neon Lights Snack bar 6

The last of the bunch of vector art sets featuring products you would find at a snack bar. Will be posting this soon on my web site as well.



Thursday, June 06, 2013

Its me again.

Yeah I know. Its yet another profile pic but as you know I don’t like photos of my self on the internet and this is the only way I will have something of me other then avatars.
Just finished it yesterday but I have yet to colour it. I’ll probably colour it in a very traditional way and in the original way that I started off my art journey so very long ago. With coloured pencils, markers and some kind of ink pen. Don’t think I’ll be using my mechanical pens though I think they’re ca-poot. Tried filling them with ink and it just makes a mess. And yeah I cleaned them thru and thru and such but to no avail. I think they’re just too old and maybe over time things get warped. Guess I’ll have to get another set at Staples or something. Bummer now I have to spend money again. Got plenty of ink though.
Anyways my profile features me at work on many art project while my kitty Meetso has a little stretch on one of my art pieces in progress. But also featured are some of my doves are in the antics too. And I do mean some, since I have about 9 of them 7, 8 and 9 are just off the pic hiding someplace. ;)
Before I add some colour going to have to fix a few areas though but they’re just minor things.
Hope you like my work in progress.
Probably be the last profile pic featuring me in a while.

New tasty sweet vector graphics just in time for summer. 
Only one more in this series to go! ;)

Neon Lights Snack Bar 4

Just in time for the warmer months a new refreshing vector set to drink in.
You can also view at my web site now too. 







Also incase you haven’t noticed I finally got the profile pic/link to what I wanted since Google didn’t give us that option. And besides it was kind of not working like it was suppose to any how.  Just got a nice html code from Dynamic Drive, did a bit of fiddling and wala! A nice pic/link that animates with no bugs in it.

Free beer inside.

Ok so I forgot about this place but then can you blame me. Freelancing, clip-art making and other things is much more lucrative anyway.  But I’ll give it another shot. I added another graphic to my product line. Its basically based on my very successful clip-art set that’s been out in the market for sometime. I might add more when I have some time or when I’m bored or something which is quite rare but not too uncommon if I was to spend more time online. But adding more graphics is limited on a free subscription. Oh well. Still I wonder if interest is waning in regards to operating on such a place with the average Jill? I mean sure some people are obviously making some kind of income there but still I don’t see too many conversations happening in the forums. Maybe I should try Zazzler’s in the future or what ever its called.
Going to have to check them out.

Super me!

Not much of a fan of picture taking. The camera never takes my best side any how. Not really a fan of drawing my self in to a self portrait either but sometimes you have to make a compromise. But I still do have fun working on the drawing and colouring part. This was actually drawn awhile ago but I only just now had the time to actually work on it because of other priorities.  
This is my latest persona in the form of an avatar or profile picture I designed for just that.  Yes it may be a bit exaggerated but its definitely me despite that, my current hair style is a bit shorter as of late. The glasses are the wrong colour and no I never had pink in my hair. Its just one of those fantasies/ persona things of mine but current situations do not allow for pink hair. But the boobs ……are all real.

 

Will also be on display soon via my web site just as soon as some lagging bug gets fixed over there at the providers. 

Here is the before and after. The pencil drawing then the final. Enjoy!

Oh yeah I left a bit of text space on the side in case I needed it someday.

Little Star the stick horse.

Originally was going to be a finger puppet but seem to fit better as a little stick puppet. Finally got around to finishing it. Not sure if and when I’ll get to make North Star the mommy stick horse or former finger puppet. But eventually I’d like to make that too.  To see what its made out of, the info is available via my web site when you click on the appropriate image in my miscellaneous art section.

Neon Lights Snack bar 1

New graphics in a neon lights theme. They are of stuff you may buy or see at a snack bar or concession stand which is pretty much the same thing. Expect 5 others unless I have to make a few changes.  Now I’m hungry.

Lounging Spike

Ok There you have it. The Finished Lounging Spike.
I combined several drawings I did of him to get the look just right. You can see my process in the sketches in an earlier post.
I basically digitally painted it Photo shop using airbrushing and using the textured brushes technique. I also used many layers and channels all the while keeping in mind where and how the lighting should look on Spike est. Even though I wanted a realistic look, I still wanted to keep the cartoony look too. And there you have it.
As usual for now you will not be able to view it on my web site until the first half of my web site is done with the renovations.


 The full Lounging Spike.
 A close up so you can see the details of the hair est.

Featuring creatures

Just featuring a few creatures I’ve been drawing/doodling for the past few months and weeks scanned straight from my personal sketch book. As you know making up creatures and characters are my favorite things to draw.  These were shared earlier at a art web site where people of professional to novas come to share thoughts and their art in forum form. There are other handy artist related things there too. 

Now to the pics. These are mostly inspired by a number of random objects and some are from pure imagination.


 A chompy reptile creature inspired by a staple remover.
 A made up little wombat like creature.
 Another reptile dino like creature with a fingered lip. Inspired by some dumb children's hand puppet show.
 A cute little creature with a deadly defensive secret weapon that you do not want to mess with.
 Another reptile creature inspired by the mayfly.
 Cute little alien girl.
 Some creatures inspired by a humble maple key. I may try and experiment more with this theme in the future. The long necked one is a type of sap sucker. Bother it and it can zing you. The other short and plump one likes to eat small insects.
The last one is a tripod creature who uses its tail like a third leg. And another little alien reptile sits.......in the corner.

It wont' be in my personal web site/portfolio until after renovations are completed in my creative half of the site. Can't really access the other half here any ways. ;)

Oh and my first Spike the Tiger illustration for my creative part of my site is coming along fine. Its almost completed too. It will go on the index page.

Also fall or better known as autumn is this Saturday. Boooooo!  Where are my wings so I can fly south for the winter. :p

Drawn to attention.....Spike the tiger

A little history on Spike the Tiger, how he came to be.
When I was little, growing up  I was teased and bullied a lot. I didn’t have any one really to be on my side. No sisters, no brothers, no grandparents, no relatives. My mother was often sick and my dad was working. Friends/ neighbors only help so much and can’t be with you 24 hours a day. I only had one or two friends if I was lucky enough. I had the occasional guidance counselor at school est but in the end they move on to greener grasses and you never hear from them again. Being separated in to special classes which in my normal class time only creates a feeling of segregation to make matters worse. So often as I did, I  daydreamed in class or any where boring or being in a scary situation. I would imagine something powerful and only friendly to me to be on my side.  Then I would doodle the ideas of imaginary friends in on some paper or in some school book. I would draw the powerful black stallion from the movie The Black Stallion. I would draw him running and have smoke billowing out of his nostrils. I would draw big eagles, tigers, lions and powerful lizards and est. I would doodle my favorite characters from my favorite cartoons of the day and I began to make new characters and stories based on those cartoons and have my own persona character in those stories.  Eventually there was a cartoon called Voltron that I really enjoyed watching as a kid. I just loved how these characters were in charge of these huge and powerful robo lions and fought the forces of evil. I then as always created a story with characters of my own only with giant robo tigers. But over time favorite cartoons fade to black as so many times before, things change and so did my little imagined cartoon and characters. Many robo tigers and their operators dwindled to one beloved imaginary powerful tiger friend who was no longer robotic but something more with a heart and personality something that was just as good as those other things imagined to be on my side but can do so many more things and adventures.  
 In time I added a few more things like a world where he came from, a few more friends and enemies to fight est.  
Also over time I kept him as a mascot, as a learning tool and a wonderful story/cartoon idea.The rest is history and spoilers to be revealed someday when the time is right.

These set of drawings is for the front page of my web site. I'm just going to have to decide which pose is the best. Spike doesen't normally act this way. He normally does the typical poncing, fighting and protecting but he as made an exception to pose for my drawings so I can fix up and refurbish my web site. 
I would like to have Spike's tail to over lap some of the title. You can help me choose if you like. I have left the rough drawings as is so you can see how my ideas were coming along. As you can see, I had a few drawings that I did not continue since i did not like the direction they were going in.  Others were experiments. Also because I have a bad habit of making the drawing run off the page I had to draw extra arm/paw drawings to be added later.

I used a blue erasable pencil that animators and drafters use for the loose sketching part and then used a regular writing pencil on top of that for the details. 



Here below are the rest of the sleeping Spike drawings and a scratching Spike to be used for my new Scratching post banner.
Below I will use these potential drawings for my Creative blog banner here. Just have to make up my mind to which is best. BTW he's just gotten in to the paint and is painting paw prints all over your screen. Again not typical for Spike.
Another position for the paw printing Spike. With both of these positions I used some picture reference of small house cats so I can get the look right since I wasn't sure. Spike was a bit stubborn. ;)

I tried a different pose and theme in this one with Spike fighting with an airbrush gone crazy. 
The treasure box drawing is for potential over hauled idea for my treasure part of my site. 

The last drawing is another version of that treasure themed idea.

And that's all folks. ;)
Time for bed.

3 Red figs

Artsy things that I’ve been up to.  Just finished this latest clip art based on this pic I took a number of years back when we lived at that certain old neighborhood with the big beautiful yard. Gggg I miss the place.  It won’t be on my web site till I finish with the renovations.

That of course is another thing I’m catching up on. Renovating my web site, which is nearly completed other then the fact it needs a few completed drawings and possible a few link updates.

Which leads me to the drawings I just completed as well which I will be showing soon.  Some very cool drawings based on my main character.


Doesn't that look like summer to you?

Thursday, August 02, 2012

Small changes big ideas.

Made a few small changes to a bunch of things regarding my web site and banners that I use here which were really begging for it. More noticeable things in the future. As of right now, you don't see much. ;)

SnowFriends Forever

More on the snowy theme a trio of best snow friends. No I’m not crazy about winter. Totally the opposite.
This illustration should also be featured on my site shortly. That would be in one or two days.



Sunday, July 15, 2012

Well this is cool.

Well this is cool.
My latest “make” which is was featured in the last post  is now featured at Instructables.com Which was due to an invitation offer to enter a water based contest. Very cool. Its still entered to have a chance to win more stuff as well. Besides being featured they even gave me a 3 month pro subscription too. Double the cool. Now to decide if I want to pursue it.  Just have to find out a few things first.
Thanks a bunch.
:D

A Tool for Artists

Introducing Anti Warp Water Colour Painting Frame
A great tool for watercolour artists to minimize the paper warping after it dries.
There’s nothing more annoying then working with paper that has warped, especially when you have to go back to a spot you painted earlier in order to do some fine details and the paper is all wavy.
This thing is great for wet on wet painting techniques too since the frames are for the most part water proof providing that you follow instructions. 

Sure, I could have used craft paper and glued it on the back of the watercolour paper but I really don’t like it for that kind of paper I use, so that’s why I came up with this thing. 


 

You can download instructions provided by me from my web site or go to Instructables.com and while there see what others have made to share.
None the less, hope some of you can find this useful.

A bit early for Christmas in July

Its a bit early for this but not too early for people in the media industry. 

Just some simple clip art in a Christmas ball theme. 

Only two more of these similar sets to go. 



In the drawing stage some Easter themed clip art. ;)

Peek a boo!

In case you haven’t noticed I’m back and have been back for a week or two now. For awhile at least. Until I get another freelance project that is. And that may come soon enough since I have been offered another book to work on this coming season of fall or maybe sooner. Who knows? But that’s cool none the less.
The latest Sunshine The Lion Cat adventure should get published soon and I’ll link in here when it gets completed.
In the mean time I’ll be catching up on spring cleaning, clip art, some other art work , animation if I had some of the equipment, my web site( could use a new look) and possibly some special tee shirts for ads. And maybe some other things If I possibly get to them.
Last season I barely had any time to do any thing me wise since I had gotten a new kitty in my life and other things which made things get a bit crazy. Oh well, such is life. 
;)

Planet name generators.

The other day I thought I look for some name generators specifically planet name generators for an idea for one of my cartoons I’ve been working on since I was in grade school. It has an element of fantasy and a bit of scifi and maybe a touch of Tron the movie depending on how you look at the story idea. You can also see small elements of it all over my websites and blogs if you look closely.

Anyways I could never really think of the right name for the planet the characters are residing on, so I thought it was about time I really made an effort on coming up with one. So I searched for a bunch of the generators on the net and thought there really are a whole bunch of them that are nice and handy but none of them seemed to fit my bill. I won’t post any links to those since I’m sure some of you already know of your favorite ones.

Just could not find the right ones that would basically take a fraise and turn it in to a compatible name for a planet that made sense to me. But then it hit me, why don’t I just take the first letter of every word in my fraise and turn that in to a great planet name and if it still doesn’t sound right take those letters and then put them in a order to actually come up with an acceptable name.

For example; Say the planet you came up with is best known for being the green jewel of the universe then you can start with the fraise “The green jewel of the universe” Now extract every first letter of every word in that fraise. “T,G,J,O,T,U” Now you have your letters for a name. Here you can decide to rearrange your letters, remove some/add or just keep it as is. First lets try keeping all letters. “Tgjotu” Not the desired word/name? lets try to rearrange the letters. “Jottug” “Gottuj” To me those samples look pretty good and scifi/fantasyish. Let see how one of them fits. “The planet Jottug, The green jewel of the universe”
Pretty neat-o if I do say so my self and the rest is up to you.
Now that’s a decent planet name generator.
Go and try it your self and have fun.

Oh and don't forget to tell me if you like my idea. ;)

JollySanta Christmas p1

Here’s a little early Christmas cheer. A new Christmas themed clip art set. This time the graphics are related to Jolly old St Nick. More to come when I actually have time to post it. Also that little finger puppet I have been working on. Probably coming soon too. Oh and a update, I have started to work on the second installment of Sunshine the Lion cat. So stay tuned. Thanks for visiting.

Wednesday, November 10, 2010

While I wait.....

Well-p while I wait to start my latest gig, which has to be, any day now I decided to make some finger puppets for fun. I'm making this little black horse out of recycled materials mostly. Doing my part to save the world from more garbage while utilizing idle time. Probably going to make a matching mama horse too.

Sunny the lion cat.

Well here it is. First ever published book I illustrated. Not too shabby If do say so my self.
Its about this orange gregarious kitty who is very much like one of my former fur babies, who at first is lost but was found and not only was found but found a home and loving forever home.

I was quite surprised though to see it for purchase on an online store. Quite unexpected since I already had it pictured being sold in the usual manner by getting processed and then being sold at a local book store or a place like Amazon. I guess its another sign of the modern times. Especially now since more and more people are opting in for electronic book tablets like the ones used on Star trek. I guess it’s the wave of the future. This book though is still available in colorful traditional book form. Personally I really still prefer something that you can flip though the pages your self. Just simply more easer on the eyes and a feast for the mind n heart. I may try out this company in the future my self since I have lots of stuff that I usually use for my cartoon ideas that would make awesome adventure stories too.

I really hope that the children of Marella who is the author of this book btw really enjoys this surprise.
Btw this book is dedicated to Mirella’s daughter in the memory of the sweet and fun Sunny who obviously brought sunshine in the families lives.

The illustrations are done with traditional water colours, gouaches and some coffee ink.

Please note, what you’ll see is a bit of a sampler or a proto book of what can be purchased in the whole book. The whole book will be a polished version and not have blue lines est.


http://www.blurb.com/books/1607146

Hope you guys like it and maybe some will purchase it for your kids.

Happy Exploring. :)

News flash, just got to let you guys know I got permission to show off content to the illustrated book I worked on. Can't wait, just have to though, thoroughly check out the link so that I know what to show you and explain things since there are links to purchase the book and other things.
In the mean time enjoy yet another latest vector graphic which will also be showing in my website too.

Cool Treats set 1

Not much to say lately other then I’m pretty much caught up on “must do things.” Now just finishing up the little things while waiting for the next gig and those links to the illustrated book I worked on for that last few months. In the mean time enjoy the last hurrah of summer examples of summer treat goodness. As always more stuff to come.

Breaking news! Just checked out my Email. I just saw parts of my illustrated book in the email the author I’m working for sent to me. I wish I could share what I saw. Looking really nice. Can’t wait to post the results.

Wednesday, August 25, 2010

Upgrades and updates.

Yup its been awhile since I last wrote any thing. Mostly because of busyness and a touch of laziness to write but then you probably know what I‘m like by now. Well-p anyways I finished that book a few months ago that I illustrated for that author. She seemed very pleased with her children‘s book not to mention excited. Unfortunately I don’t have the permission to show off the fruits of my labor here and other places. For now there’s only one place I can show it off its called Elance. Soon as she publishes her book she promised me a few links and I will be sure to share it promptly. In the mean time we will all have to sit tight. For the future she promised me another project this October. I shall see but I’ll stay positive none the less.

In the mean time I continue to get ready for more stuff by taking care of those things I had on my “to do” list. Organizing and cleaning the down stairs studio…..Done! Now I just have to buy a few more supplies like some more paint and paper. Taking care of some clip art……Done! Getting faster and a brand new internet……So Done!

Yup I finally made it to the 21st
century. My old line was driving me crazy. I was lucky to even get on let alone use it for work and entertainment purposes. Downside to having a decent and fast internet connection, caps and you have to pay the piper more moola. But it’s a necessary compromise.

Oh and I finally got that package in the mail that took almost about a month. :rollie eyes: First of all the guy whom I got the package did not use the right postal code. I know I told him to use specific postal code and then there was the customs. Yipes! Well anyways all that matters is that I got my package. Finally get to upgrade my Photoshop software. Yeah!


In the mean time and until next time I write please enjoy my latest clip art.
A depressing theme in a lighthearted expression. It just to show you that even animals can’t get away with it.
