What a character!

Another new painting! This one is born out of a sketch from a sketchbook of mine from 4 or 5 years ago. I had found some old company icons from the 40s, 50s and 60s that I thought were fun and put them all in the sketch thinking that one day I'd make a painting from it. Now here it is! Hope you enjoy.
It was a nice long Memorial weekend and I had a blast on Saturday with friends having BBQ and Folk Fest. I also Kayaked and rode my bicycle a far amount over the weekend. On Memorial day having some dinner with a good friend was terrific. We caught up and talked for hours. Good times!
Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend.

Fast Food

After just wolfing down a burger, which I don't do very often these days, I thought throw this sketch up on the old blog that I did about a year ago. Not sure if this one will be a painting one day but I'm sure to post it if it is!
Hope everyone has a nice relaxing Memorial day weekend and you get to have as many burgers, hot dogs, ribs, potato salad, watermelon that your belly can hold. Enjoy!

Arianna Huffington tonight!

HA! I actually got to talk to Arianna Huffington tonight after her lecture at Town Hall in Seattle.
I told her Hello in Greek and she asked me how long my family was in America and I told her second generation. She looked me up and down and said with a big smile, you look very much like a Greek man.
My older camera was with me (couldn't find my digital),... not sure if the picture will come out but I'm going to take the film in tomorrow.

Animal hospital

This is one of the game ideas I worked up from scratch at MS last year. I did the UI, character design and several game screens...

Cat Tree on Amazon!

This art has just been approved for sale on AMAZON.COM. You can go there and type my name into the search engine and you'll see my books and prints. I've got more that I'm in the process of getting on AMAZON. Check there often and order as many as you like!

House is a Home...

This is the title page for a product that I worked on at Microsoft last year. Great Team, people and a fun time. I hope to have more experiences like this one. I got to do a lot of art for the games we worked on from concepting to final art. I'll be posting more of that here soon. Stay tooned and come back for more fun Art.

New Sketch!

Here I'm going to put up some of the worth while bits and pieces of the Graphic novel sketches that I've been working on. This is from page two. I'll have more color art posted soon as well. Stop by, check it out, send my blog to others, and make sure to leave comments from time to time.
