Badass...Justinian

Here is the illustration for Justinian from Badass.

Badass

I recently helped illustrate a funny little history book called "Badass", filled with vulgar language, but quite entertaining and educational. Written by the amazing Ben Thompson.

Here was the illo for Peter the Great, known for his hard drinking as well as his "badassness".

I illustrated this while at the height of my "ink splatter" brush fascination, so they were quite fun to do.

It's published by Harper Collins, so it should be available in most major retail book stores. It's also on Amazon.

Anatomy Sketches

I used to go to weekly figure drawing workshops, but since moving to Petaluma I haven't been as regular about it. So one of the things I do is sketch each day from the Random Pose generator on Posemaniacs.com
These are pen & ink on bristol, the black crayon scribbles over top are the contribution of my 20 month old daughter.
