Savour

I create and sell stock art and I wanted to do something family related because that's a highly searched for theme. so I sketched this in photoshop thinking ok here's a rubber stamp of a Grandma and a kid.. but I liked how it came out.. and it fits with illo Fridays "Savour" theme.

Sneaky

This is a drawing based on an abandoned Ponderosa restaurant. I thought I'd put a ghost in one of the windows and some kids sneaking around outside... cause I would sneak into abandoned houses when I was a kid.

BURNING




A tribute to all World War I pilots. Pictured here is a Fokker Dr I Triplane flown by Manfred Von Richtofen better known as the Red Baron. He shot down 80 planes before being shot down by Canadian Pilot Roy Brown though there was some dispute over whether he was killed by ground fire. WWI Fighter Pilots did not wear parachutes because it was thought they would bail out at the first sign of combat. I read that one pilot carried a pistol so he could end his life in the event his plane caught fire to avoid being burned alive on his way to the ground. messed up huh?

Pressed


Ok so I did this experiment in photoshop inking. I wanted to see if I like it better then real ink. I don't think I do. But I think this turned out ok and it did save a lot of time, mess and I can color my ink lines.
