A Beloved Boston

Boston Terrier study/sketch

Gorilla Editorial


The rough for client approval.





In progress.
Pencil for the line. It's how I roll.







The final cover illo.
(Note rotation of gorilla's bike for more visual interest, and also to make Triumph owners steamed at me for blowing it. Coulda drawn a Harley, guys.)





The interior spot illo.

Proportional Preference


Texaco FatMan Bank (Repro)




Fat's Domino



The Sculpture of Fernando Botero


As an illustrator there is a proportion that appeals to me.

(The above sampling a representation.)

Though, I don't think there's much of it in my drawing. It's mostly in three-dimensional objects that I see.

Think I need to play with it.
