EGAD #22 Once Upon a Time in the Desert


Been meaning to do this pic for a few years...I'm pretty happy with it regardless of the usual rush to finish it.

EGAD 13/365 - These aren't the pills I ordered!


Another quick pic done in painter and photoshop. This was inspired by the leg muscle pills episode. A simple reversal and we get Arnold E. Coyote.

The EGAD Project #11 - The Coyote Who Chased Me


I will be the first to admit that my artwork leaves quite a lot to be desired. For some reason or another, I can never find the time to practice drawing, and lately, nothing else that I want to do for that matter...

I figured this year would be the year to break that pattern and force myself to draw something every day, even if it's just a rough sketch and so I chose one subject who I've had an obsession with for quite a few years (I have a few). The goal of this, besides trying not to offend the copyright owners, is to improve my cartooning and drawing skills as well as push the creativity muscle by coming up with 365 ideas based on one character. So far it's going well... This is #11, the rest are posted on my DeviantArt Account.

Epitaph of an Unfortunate Artist


I'm re-reading Richard Williams essential reference "Animator's Survival Kit" for character and object animation class today and wanted to share this poem:

Epitaph of an Unfortunate Artist

He found a formula
for drawing
comic rabbits:

This formula for
drawing comic
rabbits paid,

So in the end he
could not
change the
tragic habits

This formula for
drawing comic
rabbits made.

-Robert Graves

I know for a fact I fell into this pattern when I drew the coyoteville comic strip which was heavily influenced by Warner Brothers and a bit of Disney as well as more than a pinch of Walter Kelly, which will probably take a bit of work to break out of.
