Traditional media portfolio

The following is a sampling of my work in a variety of traditional media.


While the majority of my work involves character studies and tattoo designs, I am attempting to devote more time to environment design.



Pencil sketches

Character design based on given description


Gift art - original design for katana based on a plethora of references

Ink

A character that was born out of several hours of Marilyn Manson's "Golden Age of Grotesque" on loop...


Him and his ladies...and his booze

A series of inked scenes for a mock "Butter" advertisements done by a friend. Done with India Ink and Prismacolour gray markers. The images themselves have not been retouched (aside from the smear of yellow butter in the first ad).
With these in his portfolio, he scored a pretty decent marketing gig in NYC.

Colour

On occasion, I'll bust out the Prismacolour markers and end up with doodles of my alter-ego:

From my Fantasy art phase, when acrylic paint owned my soul:

My biggest achievement in acrylic: a mural on the wall of my high school history classroom at Northern Secondary School in Toronto
