Wishing my family & friends a wonderful holiday season...I've learned so much over the recent years, met so many great people & I feel very thankful for all of the ongoing support, encouragement, and inspiration.

Random sketches & updates

Squeezing in a post for the tail end of June...here's a batch of random sketches over the past few sketch outings (including SketchCrawl 35).

Here's a sneak peak of a piece titled "Young'uns!" as part of a cowboy legends anthology book (featuring many other amazing fellow artists) published by Tiki Machine, LLC.  This book will be sold at San Diego Comic-Con in a couple weeks...more details to come in a future post!

And "Little Do They Know" gets a little reboot with the doodle below :)

Thanks for stopping by!  I'll be posting again soon :)

"Little Do They Know" (12/11/11)

I thought I'd try a new technical approach to my Little Do They Know comic for the holidays...this one was digitally painted (very loosely and quickly) in Photoshop.  I figure it might be a quicker way to produce these strips...but it is a slight departure from the previous look.  Hmm....well, I'm just experimenting, so I'm open to any feedback :)

You may have to click on the original image to zoom in further...

Hope the holidays are happy so far :)  Thanks for stopping by!

"Little Do They Know" (5/13/11)

It's been a while...but here's the latest Little Do They Know strip!
(You may have to click further on the image to enlarge.)

Let's just say this little girl has learned a thing or two over the years :)

By the way, this is the first LDTK strip drawn entirely digitally...I'm trying to apply some new techniques, all the while keeping the overall aesthetic of the previous strips.  I guess evolution is a good thing :)

To view past strips, you can check out the Little Do They Know archive section located in the sidebar.  Thanks for the continued support!

Happy Holidays! "Little Do They Know" (December 2010)

Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season so far!

For some of you who may be wondering, I decided to put my Little Do They Know comic strips on hiatus to focus on some other career & personal objectives this year...and to be honest, I wasn't too sure how I wanted this project to evolve quite yet.  Knowing me, it could take a while before I figure this out...and you might see bits and pieces every now and then (like this post, for instance)...but at least that little girl is sticking around ;)

That said, thank you for the support, inspiration, and encouragement out there – especially from family and friends, to whom I am very grateful.

Brownstones to Red Dirt Postcard Art Benefit (3/6/10 - 3/13/10)

The above Little Do They Know strip was specially done for the upcoming Brownstones to Red Dirt Postcard Art Benefit – an online art auction which will take place March 6 - March 13.

A couple of colleagues from Blue Sky Studios (the animation studio behind such popular films as Ice Age and Horton Hears a Who!) have created a film titled Brownstones to Red Dirt, a documentary about a pen pal program – and its lasting effect of hope and inspiration – between a group of children living in the housing projects of Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn and war orphans living in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

The Brownstones to Red Dirt Postcard Art Benefit is an extension of the film – and all proceeds of sales will go towards helping to build a school for the kids in Sierra Leone, and to help create a school library for the kids in Bed-Stuy.

Artists from around the world have been invited to contribute original artwork done on birch wooden postcards (courtesy of Night Owl Paper Goods) – many of which are based upon the central "Pen Pals" theme of the film project.  Please take a moment to visit the art benefit's blog to read more about this wonderful cause, and to see works by dozens of incredible artists!

You can also click here to sign up for notifications when the auction goes live this Saturday.  Happy bidding & thank you for your support!!!

"Little Do They Know" (2/2/10)

We've got a fun group at the office called "Sketchup & Mustard" – which was formed by my friend Jin Han, in an effort to bring colleagues together & to help each other keep up with creative side projects.  Last week's theme was "Kids and Their Imagination".

I decided to apply this theme to my latest Little Do They Know comic strip.  Please click the image below to enlarge:

I'll be posting a few more updates soon. Thanks for visiting :)

Pieces for "Power in Numbers 4" at Gallery Nucleus

As mentioned in my previous post, Gallery Nucleus is holding a charitable art event called "Power in Numbers 4" – in which all pieces are sized at 5" x 7" and priced at $100 each.  A portion of sales will benefit the American Red Cross.  Please click below to enlarge my submitted pieces for the show:

"What's On Your Mind?"

 

"Let's Take a Chance"

"Here I Go!"

As you may see, the boy and girl from my Little Do They Know comic strip will be making their gallery debut.  These are framed originals done in watercolor & pencil.  Together, the pieces are meant to tell a small story...but my hope is that each image can stand on its own as well.

I'm fortunate (and humbled) to be a part of such an amazing exhibit benefiting a great cause.

Show opens tonight (December 12) from 7pm - 10pm.  The exhibit will run through December 28.  You can click here for more information & to see the list of participating artists.  Thank you for your interest & support!
