New character... though I haven't thought of a name for him, yet.

He's a dart frog... (to be more specific, his species name is "dyeing poison dart frog"), and as you can tell by the picture, he's a happy frog.

DO NOT REDISTRIBUTE WITHOT PERMISSION!!!

One of my projects for my advanced watercolor class this semester. I wanted to paint an angel, but I didn't want to make a fru-fru angel with fluffy white wings, so I chose Gabriel, the angel of Death.

Watercolor paints outlined with Micron pens.

"His Divine Presence" - A revamp of Gale, the chief god in my comic book.

Gideon Rayne with a horse.

Gideon Rayne (AKA Raindance) rides Schnell, his Mialek.

Gideon

Gideon with his sword - final version. About 20 layers and 5 hours of coloring. I had fun coloring the small details in the bracelets and sheath. :)

Tree brushes used in the background from anarasha-stock.deviantart.com . Celtic knots in the clothing were also stock, but I couldn't find the artist to credit them to.

The Golden King.

"Gonna Get You!"

Suddah my Verin character - fun with foreshortening.

After doing all those commissions, I decided to relax and draw something for my own self gratification. :)

Hmmm.... this little guy may make a good tattoo design.

I've seen several people do gryffoxes, so I decided to draw one too. :)

Design for my own personal stationary for resumes, etc. This design goes on the top left corner of the page.

Ugly watermark is there to prevent others from using it.

I tried drawing another gryphon-taur... but I used Indian accents for this one (Middle Eastern, not Native American)

Silver gryph mage.

A young gryphon warrior watches over his mistress.

Ulario poses in Central Park (Strawberry Fields to be more exact). My first real cityscape in a picture. I'm a bit excited about my upcoming trip to NYC.

"Freedom of the Gryphon Spirit"

I hadn't drawn my human character (and Ulario's mate), Tetra in a while... so I decided to. His nickname is the "Prince of Gryphons". Why? Well, it's a long story that takes up an entire issue of my comic to explain... so I'm not getting into it right now.

Cute little gryphon artist.

My entry for OldRabbit's Valentines Day Contest. Two of my gryphon characters snuggle, Alesto the kestrel-gryph and A'Taiaith the barn owl-gryph.

Gryphon sage. This is going to be part of an art show in Bay City.

Ulario doing her morning exercises.

I'm dressing up as the Crow again this year :)

Ulario tries on my costume.

Every year on Halloween I try to do a picture of some of my characters in costume. This year I wasn't able to do a nice full colored picture. Between illustrating a children's book, being sick, and my grandma being in the hospital I simply didn't have the time. However, I was able to whip up this sketch this morning. It's not much... but at least it's something.

Trick or Treat 2008

Effin finally! Got this done! It's posted a little later then I normally like my annual Halloween pic to be... but this has been the month from helllllll!
Admittedly, I did have to rush a few parts... but I wanted to get it done before tomorrow.

The characters are as follows from left to right:

Ran-Qui as Fox McCloud:
Well, the female version of Fox anyways.

Ulario as Lady Death:
All too late I remembered that earlier this year I had plans to dress her as Lara Croft for my halloween pic this year. D'oh!

Aredon as Professor Chaos:
Butter's supervillain alter ego from South Park. This specific version of Prof. Chaos was taken from the first episode form season 8 titled "Good Times With Weapons".

Shaman Series - Pic 3 of 4

Hatchet Arcane the wolf... son of Aceneth, the first character in this series.

A revamp of Hatchet's priest clothes (or shaman clothes, whatever you want to call it). I tried to make it a little truer to my native american heritage.

The Blessed One

Taking some time out to do some art for myself before I go crazy.

Revisiting my JayFox character, Tai'Ann.

Hellfire conjures up a fireball.

The last few days I wanted to draw something, and I had no idea what. My BF said that I should draw Hellfire, my phoenix character since I haven't drawn him in a while. So here he is. I experamented with a few new techniques in this picture.

Another one of my older characters. I have a lot of fun drawing tribal/religious type characters so I may do a series of these type of characters in the future.
