Moebius fanart

I was introduced to the works of Moebius (Jean Giraud) as a child with “The Magic Crystal” series. Elves, fairies, unicorns, colourful magic landscapes AND giant floating naked star princesses??? I was immediately smitten and became a fan of his beautiful art and fantastical worlds for life! (click the image for a closer view)


Here's a link to an incredible tumblr containing a wide variety of Moebius' work (has a few NSFW images)

Life Drawing Batch

I've started up classes with my excellent teacher Brian Hladin once again. I love this class, super fun, inspirational and very chill.

 I'll post one of the last drawing of the night first (20 minutes) ^^

 ... and back to the first drawings. (couple 3 minutes and a 1 min) ^

(2-3 min... really should have gotten the face in though) ^

 

A really tricky perspective pose, you can see Brian's fix floating above the figure

I became so wrapped up in the figure I forgot to put the face on until the last second, gah!

Holy CATS,  it's been a busy couple of months! After returning from comic-camp in Florida (yes, it always goes back to that) I spent the chilly Canadian winter working on a large story boarding project and squeezing in two short anthology comics in my very small window of free time. The first aforementioned comic was for "The Anthology Project" which is in print as we speak, (I'll be attending the Mocca comic convention in New York this April to premier it) and the second comic I JUST wrapped on is for the final volume of the "Flight" anthology!

Flight 8 will hit amazon and bookstores this summer, so take a look for it and check out my comic "Buttons and Jim!"A cheerful, silly and optimistic tale penned by my brother Shaggy and slaved over artily by yours truly (with colour help from my darling Gerry D, and my buddy Jason C) . Review's are already pouring in, and it hasn't even gone to print yet! My favorite being,
"You'll go APE over 'Buttons and Jim'" ~(Puzzle, Kt's roommate's cat)

 (See as Puzzle tries to seduce you into buying "Flight 8" this summer, with her wiley wiles.)

And now I must get about my favourite pre and post-project-ritual... de-cluttering the studio!

(It all started with a mouse... NO. It all started with a wacom pen.)

Hourly Comic Day!

Read the rest over on GIRLAMATIC.com :)

This past monday was “hourly comic day” where people are challenged to draw comics every hour depicting what’s going on in that hour. Maybe not the most exciiiiting and dramatic stuff takes place, but it’s a good challenge in trying to squeeze out a little bit of entertainment from of the day-to-day, and to draw as fast as humanly possible while still (hopefully) having your drawings come across clear and readable! This thing kicked my drawing butt, but (eheh) I’m glad I took up the challenge! And a bunch of other fine comic folk did to, so take a peek at their comics! (many of which put me to sniveling shame):
