A Public Service Announcement

I am here to discuss a serious condition that affects men and some women all over the world...

... Excessive nose hair.

It is nothing to be ashamed of...

... It can happen to any of us...

... Someone you know may be suffering from it right now. Or even yourself...

... And it is easily preventable...

... Just make sure to perform routine self examinations.

I do.

Tis the Season

Conspiracy Revealed!

"Unfortunately, it's that time of year again. Many of us won't make it out of November alive..."

... but we can reduce the number of casualties if we just came up with something to distract humankind's insatiable appetite away from us."

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Colorin' things...

Cape & the Kid

I was at the zoo yesterday and observed a kid running around in a mask and cape...

... and thought to myself, what would time do to this situation...

... Apparently the answer is make it awesomer.

Happy Halloween!

Yeehaw! (life drawing)

Quick Sketch of the Day Theme...

Clone Wars season 2 shirt

This was a shirt design I had done to represent "Clone Wars" second season. Unfortunately it wasn't able to be done, but it was loads of fun doing it.

New Brush!

Yaaaaar!

Another Ipad sketch. Hope I keep this up!

Ipad sketchin'

Dang this things is cool!

Deus Libris

Here's a piece I did of the Roman God Janus for Deus Libris, an art book compilation of 30 artists and their interpretations of deities from cultures all over the world.

Broken Man

Hello broken man I spotted on the street... I hope your tomorrow is better than your today.

W.I.P.

Banh Mi!

Spotted this kid while waiting for my Vietnamese sandwiches (Banh Mi) at Bale French Sandwiches this weekend.

Dragon Color Study

Whining Wino Rhino

Three things I love combined: animals, wordplay, and wooden crates!

Dragon... not the Bruce Lee movie of the same name

I guess working on an Asian inspired project has put me in the mood to create Asian inspired art... you would think being Asian would have done that already.

Nap time...

... just like I remember.

Memory Drawing from Lunch at Portos

I was lunching at delicious Porto's Bakery and spotted this Asian hipster. FYI, I was enjoying an amazing meal comprised of a potato ball, a banana-strawberry smoothie, and a turkey croissant sandwich.

Dueling Banjo Orangutannnngggg!

And here's the Orangutan it's dueling on Justin Ridge's blog...

Bicycling on Magnolia

Memory sketch of a proper man riding his bicycle along not so proper drivers on Magnolia Blvd.

A.P.E. 2010

A.P.E. is this weekend and I will be sharing table #444 with the talented Mr. Vaughn Ross. I will be selling some prints, a sketchbook of my recent travels to Europe, and copies of BattleMilk 2. These are some pages from the European sketchbook. Hope to see you there!

L'Age mûr [Maturity] by Camille Claudel

One of my favorite pieces I got see while in Paris was Camille Claudel's Maturity. The sketch does the piece no justice. This was from the version of the sculpture from the Rodin Museum. You can also find a version in the Musee d'Orsay.

A lil' place called Europe

I just returned from a 2 week trip in Europe! It was amazing: the art, the food, the scenery, the people, the architecture, and did I mention the art?

Unfortunately while I was there I picked up a bad second-hand smoking habit, but luckily I have since been able to kick that.

Apparently I like drawing bears...

BATTLEMiLK 2 Signing at Gallery Nucleus

The guys and I will be at Gallery Nucleus in Alhambra, CA this Saturday (August 28th) to sign copies of BATTLEMiLK 2 along with William Stout, who will be there signing his book "Hallucinations." The event goes from 4 - 8pm. Hope to see you there!

Old Pens

As much as I love breaking in a new pen, I really like finishing up an old one too. The old ones start to dry out a bit, but creates a different kind of character in their mark because of that.

BATTLEMiLK 2 @ San Diego Comic Con!

BATTLEMiLK Volume 2 will be at this year's San Diego Comic Con, available at the Design Studio Press Booth (Booth #1701). The artists (yes, that includes me) will be there to sign copies on Friday, July 23, from 4 - 5pm.

If you are not able to make it to Comic Con this year, BM2 will be available wherever DSP books are sold (i.e. Amazon.com, Borders, etc.) Hope to see you there!

Well hello there!

Alcatraz Visit #2

Taking a tour of Alcatraz is one of the few touristy activities in San Francisco I recommend doing. I took my uncle while he came to visit recently. They also feature a nighttime tour I'm eager to take someday. Who's in?!

Battlemilk Volume 2

I have been working on a book with some friends (David Le Merrer, Jackson Sze, Kilian Plunkett, Thang Le, and Wayne Lo) and it will be coming out really soon: Battlemilk Volume 2. The website became live today. The book will be available online, in stores, and at this year's San Diego Comic Con (where we will be signing copies at the Design Studio Press booth). Oh, Comic Con it's been awhile since we've seen each other, let's try to be friends shall we?
