SketchFest is live this weekend so I’ve been working on a few prompts. At the moment I have no plans to turn these concept drawings into full paintings.

Stag of the Moon: I know it’s not a ‘stag’ but, this is where the prompt led me.

I have one more prompt to work on, I’m not sure I’ll get it done in time (only a few hours left to SketchFest72). Today I’d like to try and hammer out one or two sketch cards or 4×6’s to list on feebay tomorrow AM. Unsure yet.

If you really want to keep up to date on what I’m working on make sure you follow me on Instagram (or Twitter, all of my IG posts flow to twitter).

November…

This year it marks the end of Drawlloween, a month long drawing challenge, which I found massively fun and very inspiring; so much so I have 3 maybe 4 new illustrations to do from my Drawlloween Sketches. Also November marks the end of show season for me, my last show was ToyCon in Bridgeview IL on Nov 1st.

This is when the real work begins. Every artist craves change during their career, either subject matter, mediums used, a need to experiment more, I think I’m at that point again. I’ll be totally revamping my gallery, retiring old work to make way for new. Also I’ll be concentrating more on new illustrations for merchandise in my stores. Mainly Society 6, Zazzle, Redbubble, Tee Public & my new Threadless Shop. I’m also thinking of taking my ‘art cards’ to a new level, I need to experiment to see if what’s in my head is actually doable.

If you missed any of my Drawlloween postings on Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter or Facebook here they are:

I will be making a Limited Edition Sketchbook of these drawings Limited to the number of pre-orders I receive, I will not be making any extra copies of this book.

[ ORDER YOUR 2015 DRAWLLOWEEN LIMITED EDITION SKETCH BOOK HERE ]
Deadline is Nov. 20, 2015.

I will also be listing the remaining sketches in my store this coming week.

Remember I am always posting updates on instagram.

So, till next time.
