A strange medley of works

4 cat drawings

Some cats drawn by me. Drawn from life, my cat being the model. A number of these are unfinished. The next to last one I drew while my cat was in my lap. For a number of years I wasn't drawing so much, so I'm improving at a fast rate again the more I draw.

Study of a woman’s face

Newer version is above, while the earlier version is the following:

I like both versions, I can't decide which one I like more. Only the newer version still exists as a physical drawing, the earlier version was transformed into the new version.

2 dudes on paper

Meltin' Mel

A GPK of mine that dates back to summer or spring 2013 in concept. This drawing here is from October 11th 2014. His names may be Meltin' Mel, Over-heated Hank. I'm debating how melted his face should be, I like this version where his face has just begun to melt, and you can see his GPK face well.

Here's another imagining of the concept, from early September 2013.

Wheat-pasted Will

a new GPK of mine, Wheat-pasted Will/Street Art. He's two-dimensional and made of paper, and he's been wheat-pasted to a wall in the city. I'll make his two-dimensionedness more clear in my finished piece. Also in the finished piece he will be spaced according to GPK card front parameters: with room above him for a GPK banner and extra space below his name bar taken out.

Some Cartoons

That cat holding the fishbones and loaf of bread is happy the bones have some meat on them and the bread is only 10 days past the sell by date. 

Some cartoon drawings of mine, all original. Nothing taken from anyone, though you can see stylistic influences from some, as is the case with just about any artist.

2 drawings

Two drawings of two ninja women that date back to 1996 and maybe 1997. The 2 drawings are on the different sides of the same paper. Original, no references.

Spider-Man drawing

This is a new Spider-Man drawing of mine which I finished today in Los Angeles and began in mid August 1998 at the 1998 San Diego Comic-Con in a hotel room in San Diego. That was my first time at the Comic Con, it was pretty fun. Original pose, no reference used.

I haven't gone to the Comic Con again since '98 (I had mostly stopped collecting new comic books in 1997, don't know if I bought any new comics in 1998), but in recent years I've been wanting to go again. There's also a smaller but much closer comic con in Anaheim, just southeast of L.A. I haven't been there yet.

A new Spider-Man drawing

This is a new Spider-Man drawing of mine, pencil on illustration board 15" x 20". This will be a big drawing when I'm finished. Then it will be inked and colored with watercolors or gouache, not colored pencils. The earlier version in the previous post shows a more old school Spider-Man, but he looked a little too calm, so I changed him up and I decided to make him look like a 1990s Spider-Man instead of an early/mid 1980s John Romita Jr. version seen in the previous post.

August 2014, Spider-Man drawing

A new Spider-Man drawing by me which is a very close rendition of a Spider-Man drawing by John Romita Jr.: but I didn't trace nor use a projector: I just looked at the original J.R. Jr. panel and I drew what I saw about as best as I could, but I drew it much larger than the small panel that I was looking at.
