THE DEATH'S HEAD TRANSMISSION IS NOW TRANSMITTING!

IDIOT ENGINE ep54 "Is Art good for you?"

Join Me and self-publisher/animator/illustrator Jose Cabrera as we answer the question, "Is Art good for you?" We discuss how Art is used in psychotherapy and propaganda and even how I used to draw nipples on my old comic books. This episode has it all! Take a listen when you get a chance, you won't be sorry!

Character Portraits...

Sometimes you have to let loose.  It's good for you and good for your art.  I'm lettin' loose by doing large (for me that is!) 18" by 24" painted portraits of some of my comic characters.  I'm not focusing on reproduction, or formatting or how I would sell them, I'm just focused on making these portraits look the way I want them to look.  And I'm digging the way they're turning out.  Like I said, it's good to let loose and sometimes it's good to be selfish and do your art for yourself!  Heck, you deserve it!

This one's not quite ready to come out of the oven, but I can smell it bakin! YUM!

Drawing from Life at LIVE events!

I attended a local Pro Wrestling Guerilla live event and had a great time watching some awesome indie Wrestling!  I also made the most of it by bringing my sketchbook and wedge point sharpie and did some gestures of the wrestlers as well as some drawing during the intermission.  With the loud Metal music in the background and pounding in the ring and roar of the crowds, I tell you, the pen felt like it was literally drawing by itself!  Awesome feeling being totally immersed in the moment!

IDIOT ENGINE ep 53 Pacing Yourself/ Artists and the Worlds that they create!

Join me and self-publisher Javier Hernandez as we talk about Pacing in Storytelling!  And there's a super extra special bonus topic (translation:we start talking about something else :) ) Storytellers and the world's that they create!  Take a listen! 

Spring Craft Fair Fun!

I had a great time at the local Spring Craft Faire!  I'm not gonna lie, it was a slow show, with not alot of people going through.  Sales were light, BUT I made some awesome sketches and made quite a few people happy with 'em!  Ted Convention Tip of the Day:  Make the best of every Convention Situation!

The final word from ZOMBIE MASK ZERO!
