Oh synapsid!

Bustin' out the watercolors on a couple of synapsids, let's say palaeohatteria (with a too-wimpy tail) on top, and haptodus, except leucistic (basically half-assed albinism). Mostly just feeling out my materials and playing with skin textures, so anatomy is rather off here and there.

A thing I'm gonna do!

I'm going to be doing a demo in Vancouver on April 28, along with a lot of big-name artists. Have a look, try to tell me you don't want to be there.

End of Giraud. Moebius... is still drawing in my head though.



It is just like me to make a pun, but it is out of love. Moebius was the first artist to light a fire under my butt, when I discovered that lone issue of Heavy Metal in the garage back in the early 90's. It was the one with The Long Tomorrow, Approaching Centauri, and Is Man Good. Shortly thereafter I found myself filling notebook pages with immersive drawings of glowing canyon cities and flying cars, clutch of highlighters in one hand, tongue on my lip, totally there. I make no secret of my adoration of his work. If I'm looking Moebic for a while, don't hassle me- Moebius is just settling in for a haunting.

Oh, right. Sakura Micron 01, F-C Pitt big brush cinnamon and warm grey III, Pentel Pocket Brush + J. Herbin Rouille d'ancre, Aquabee super deluxe paper.
