The Ugly Frog Prince

Once upon a time there was a good and handsome prince whom all the girls adored.  He was so handsome that the local witch (who was uglier than the backside of an aardvark with a rectal wart) decided he needed to be uglied-up.  So she turned him into a very ugly frog and dumped him in an abysmal, foul-smelling swamp.  And no fair lass would even think of kissing him after that.  So there he sits, to this day, somewhere in Europe, in a reeking, disease-ridden, disgusting bog, eating terrible tasting insects.  Ok... that's your bedtime story.  Good night.

7 Deadly Sins

A friend of mine, Myca Wehrli, cooks the books for the church she belongs to and they needed an artist for the sermons concerning The 7 Deadly Sins. Well, guess who she thought of? So, we all swapped ideas around with their pastors and their art director Lyh-Rhen Lam, and here they are! They were blown up to 4'x8' on printed canvas and hung on the walls facing the congregation. Hats off to the printer, the resolution was excellent!

Plateau de Boeuf et de Fruits de Mer

"Sous chef Sergio Miquel Jose Antonio Juan Lopez puts the finishing touches on his specialty Plateau de Boeuf et de Fruits de Mer in the kitchens of the Hotel Bemelman, much to the terror of his waitstaff, who will be fired of they let the dish topple over before it reaches it's diner."

I think this will be the last b&w piece before colorizing for awhile and I'll go back to straight color painting. It's getting tedious. Hope you enjoy!

WMBR T-shirt design

Here's the t-shirt art I designed for WMBR's fundraiser. Again, a mix of traditional pen & ink with Photoshop.

The Sampson Report

Based on a guy I knew from growing up on Long Island...

French Snail

The Gang's All Here

Just wanted to do some old school watercolor instead of painting digitally...

Clown

I'm not a big fan of clowns... and if you ever saw the first McDonald's ad (available on YouTube), you wouldn't be either!

NON SOY BASED

NON SOY BASED - He just wants to let people know he's not Vegan.

EASY STREET - COLOR FINAL

I colored it and tweaked it up... and the story goes like this; She refused to add bananas and chocolate chips to the mob's pancakes at the local church's Sunday pancake breakfast when they demanded it. They wanted to extract revenge by taking her to the zoo and having the giraffes eat all the hair off her head. The goofball defending her is her crazy cousin, Henry. He only eats oatmeal with raisins three times a day and drinks warm beer and seltzer. Every Christmas he only asks for one thing; pate du lapin from the Hotel Bemelman in Paris, France.

EASY STREET - SEPIA

The amber version to give it an old style look...

EASY STREET

The grayscale before I go to color. Sometimes the pic is easier to do this way and then flatten it and then go back into it via coloring it and tweaking it. Took longer than I'd planned...

Watch that swing!

Just trying to get back into painting digitally again...

The final piece for the SKETCH IT OUT series... and it's basically my philosophy.  My wife, Carol, provided the ref for the victorian library.  Now, back to comics and digital painting!!!  Oh, yeah, and looking for work!  HEY, I NEED A JOB!
