Imagine Fx Magazine, issue August 2013

whew! its been a LONG couple of months. So long, in fact, that i ALMOST forgot that a large portion of last month was spent attempting this piece, which was featured in the August issue of Imagine FX.  It was wildly fun, and a ton of hard work! Thanks to the good guys over at IFX for letting me scribble on their magazine pages though, and im forever grateful for those of you who pick up the issue! Hope my tutorial helps!

How does one study? (figure drawing)

So I've heard it time and time again. "you need to go back to the foundation and learn your basics."

Drawing an accurate figure is something I've struggled with for years. I can render it well, but do I really understand the structure?

So I've gone and amassed an enormous amount of figure drawing reference and books. The question is, however.... Just HOW DOES one study a giant book of Bridgman? So many pages and pictures and diagrams and words and words and words! How doe one soak up all of the knowledge and actually retain it??? Is there a method?

Please... Share it with me?

The spread is a whopping six pages, and i really put my heart into the painting! go out and grab the issue, in stores as of today, and have a great time reading it!

Selling Portraits


Earlier this summer, my house was broken into, and stolen was my 2500$ Nikon Camera, which i loved dearly. To try and raise some of my hard earned money back to buy another, i will be selling portraits for the next two months to anyone who inquires. Turnaround time is about half a week each, and your price, framed, boxed, and shipped, is 200$.

Size is about 12x12 inches (including frame), framed on black semi glossy frame.
If interested, i would need a straight on face shot, not too small, not too blurry, hopefully with top down lighting (just stander under a nice single light), so that i can get some good shadows and frame up your face nicely.

Hope to hear from you guys!
