The Toons!

One of my main hobbies that has managed to exist through my life is drawing. Doodling, sketching, coloring you name it I like to do it. I dabble in pencil, pens, markers, colored pencils. paint, watercolors, sumi-e and of course coloring on the computer with my tablet. I like to draw nature, people, realism, anime, cartoons, abstract, gore and anything else that strikes my mood and fancy at that moment.

I tend to have a style of my own even though it's influenced by a lot of things. One of my favorite critcisms I got from an ignorant person on an art gallery was that a picture I had drawn "made no attempt at realism and [wasn't] anime style either". That gave me great satisfaction to know I couldn't be lumped into a group, although I'm sure that person meant it as a bad thing.

Some years are more prolific than others, but every year I have something to show. I originally was just going to put up my best and nicest, then I decided seeing how I've progressed over the years would be neat. So I'm putting up everything, even the crap pictures for each year and pictures I drew before I knew proper body proportions.

Click a link above to see my drawings by year. I also have special sections for a little Manga I worked on and stopped in early college and of course my plethora of character toons I used to roleplay with.

Enjoy!
