Open Mike Eagle's "Rappers Will Die of Natural Causes" Album Art

2012-01-26T22:30:00.000-08:00

I made this art for the physical CD of Open Mike Eagle's latest album!

Here are some step-by-step in-process stuff:

I think it came out pretty durned well

Robotto!

2009-11-12T20:53:00.000-08:00

Who thinks this guy is cute? I designed him to be made into a charm/pendant. I think he came out rather well.

Foamy. Good.

Birthday Go!

2009-09-18T22:34:00.000-07:00

This is the front cover of the birthday card that I made for my sister. Well, I thought it was funny.

ANGRY BEEF!

2009-04-17T11:19:00.001-07:00

It's a plush ANGRY BEEF that I made myself!

Tako & Ika!

2009-02-04T18:14:00.000-08:00

I drew made these designs entirely in Flash, then made them into a double-sided 1″ pendant for my pal HeartFeltRobots.

I Drive the Courtesy Cart!

2009-02-04T18:11:00.000-08:00

I drew this for work - it's going in the Puget Sound Bead Festival catalog. I sketched it on a piece of paper, scanned it, and then traced it all in Flash.

I actually painted this a couple of months ago for Neighbor Gary's birthday, but I didn't actually give it to him until a couple of days ago, and I couldn't actually post it here before he saw it. Didn't want to give it away!

Happy Birthday, Jen

2007-03-20T21:33:00.000-07:00

A cute little invitation I whipped up real quick for a friend's birthday party. I was going for a simple "Calvin & Hobbes" vibe with the character design.

Finally, the third piece in my "Robot & Bird" series, to go with the first and second pieces!

Peppers from Years Ago

2006-11-05T20:26:00.000-08:00

I painted these peppers as a Christmas present for my mom about, oh, a couple years ago. She only last month got around to hanging them up on the wall of her house (I told her I wouldn't paint her anything else until she hung it up!).

For anyone who has ever looked at the stars... and wondered...

This is the final painting of my summer-long Painting of the Week (a couple of weeks late, though. Oops). I learned a few things:

I like to paint (okay, I already knew that)
Painting can be a fun social activity
I shouldn't paint abstract paintings
My friends want me to paint robots for them

Indeed, in a follow-up to that 4th point, of the 12 paintings I did this summer I gave half of them away as presents. Four robots, a ghost, and a sexy nude.

PotW #6

2006-08-01T11:47:00.000-07:00

I asked Carrie for two colors, and she said, "Brown and blue." So I painted this. I should have gone with a lighter blue... or a lighter brown.

I'm a week behind due to going to Canada, so I'm gonna paint another picture sometime this week to catch up.

Starfire - The Comic Book Version

As promised (below), here is the comic version of Starfire.

Starfire

The animated version. Maybe I'll do the comic version too as a comparison?

Colorful Comic Cuties:

2006-01-21T12:52:00.000-08:00

These drawings of comic book characters (as well as Purple Man, Red X, Black Manta, Black Adam, Black Vulcan, Black Lightning, and Scarlet Witch, below) were drawn for the Jan '06 Superhero Jam at The Drawing Board.

Black Canary

At one time a Seattle-based superhero, now she works with/for Barbara Gordon. She has a killer scream.

Indigo

The niave cyborg/robot from the future who turned out to be a Brainiac (Brainiac 8 I believe). Strange that she is aqua-colored rather than indigo-colored, huh?

White Queen

Former supervillain Emma Frost, now co-leader of superhero X-Men. Still thinks she's better than everybody else, though.

Black Cat

Has basically the same relationship with Spider-Man that Catwoman does with Batman, except that Black Cat became a cat burglar in the first place in order to get close to Spider-Man.

Red Hot

2006-01-13T13:49:00.000-08:00

The Purple Man

2006-01-11T10:00:00.000-08:00

...from whom we learned that if you want to get mind-control powers, all you have to do is dye your skin purple.

Red X

2006-01-06T11:43:00.000-08:00

My favorite creation of the Teen Titans cartoon:

Black Manta, angry black man and villain to Aquaman (actually kills one of Aquaman's kids in the comics):
Black Adam, sometimes-evil counterpart of Captain Marvel:
Black Vulcan & Black Lightning—perhaps two versions of the same guy?
Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch:

Here are some more pieces I found in my office recently. These are from some time during college:

BABY GO! in: "Trash Rescue"

2005-12-30T13:32:00.000-08:00

When I was cleaning out my office I stumbled upon a whole messload of old and cool things that I had done, mostly from college. Here is a bizzare comic I made:

Below are some of the things I made for the peoples at Fools Play. Not pictured are Ed's present, which was a pair of etched pint glasses (with the Hideous Robot on them) and Leah's, which was a painted version of Downbeat Bot that I forgot to scan before I wrapped. Oops!

The Bead Factory hired me to create a full, four-wall mural in their kids' playroom. Here are the photos I took of the finished product. It's all done with regular wall paint and sharpie markers. Seriously!
