I INKED!

 I'm pretty happy with how this turned out! I NEVER go straight to paper with ink, let alone for a realistic drawing OR with dipping pen and ink!! This took over an hour. Can you tell who it is?

The things you can win for a buck!

I JUST finished the final piece for Nuttall Art Studio's 3 Year Anniversary celebration on Saturday, April 20th! Here are the pieces I'll be raffling off ($1 raffle: each ticket is $1 and you can buy as many as you want and put in to win whichever ones you want):

Now that the rush of the holiday orders are done, I'm able to work on my personal projects again in the studio (as well as the mural project at the Rose City Middle School, as posted previously). I'm submitting more work for consideration for the IDW Publishing POPEYE comics (so far no luck but I'm going to keep trying! It's a dream job for me), and finishing up a couple graphite drawings. The drawing below (I Think) is finished. It's been waiting for me to work on it again for 6-12 months, give or take a week. If you can't tell, it's Robert Plant.

Times are tough, times are hard...

Originally this painting was for ads for a classic rock station, but they, well, quit taking my calls, basically. They wanted me to paint their top 10 bands they play. I put them, and added my own. They also wanted Roth-era Van Halen. I couldn't do that, so I put Hagar AND Roth with Eddie. I put in the "Michigan trifecta" of Seger, Nugent and Alice. I added Stevie Ray Vaughan. I put in the entirety of Zeppelin because that's how it should be. With Aerosmith, I just didn't wanna give Steven Tyler the facetime as the rep for the band.
Anyway, due to the size, it's $794, but right now I'm willing to take $400 for it. Tell yer friends 'n' neighbors.

Sixty-Six to Timbuktu

This is my most recent project. I like Robert Plant. Alot. This is a graphite drawing, 18x24 and about 5-7 hours into it.

Still more newer work

I have to say how happy I am about how much work I've finished, and started and finished while in the studio. Here's a couple examples.

If you like the drawing above, please click here. It is a drawing of Robert Plant, of the Honeydrippers, solo artist fame, and he was in some band about a led balloon....?

It's been a long time

I did this drawing of the great ROBERT PLANT, formerly of Led Zeppelin, currently touring with bluegrass singer Alison Krauss. I am a HUGE Plant fan, from Zeppelin, from The Honeydrippers, and from is solo career. He just has a great voice and presence that I had to draw him. This piece is a charcoal drawing. I'm putting it up for Ebay and might have prints available eventually. PLEASE comment and let me know what you think, and let other Zep fans know of it.
