A quick hand study I did while I waited for my 2 little kids who are home schooled, to finish their Piano Lessons with their Tutor. I love listening to them play as I draw. It reminds me so much of when I was just starting out and learning to play guitar. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity and blessing of seeing them flourish, and use their hands to bless others.

Here are some more photos of the process I went through, using crayola colored pencils.
a painting I created during a break from rigging and animation ~ Title, “Memories of a Past Future”
A quick weekend concept sketch I worked on in a restaurant ~ I was imagining some kind of African Robotics program creating a line of mini bots that float around, with weapon options.
Drawing Stages
This is a quick sketch I drew during my lunch break, away from rendering scenes for the Nkoza and Nankya TV series. I find it rather therapeutic to draw, helps me clear my mind, especially when software is refusing to work the way it should ~ pencils never disappoint 🙂
A quick concept Bot, I created using Adobe Flash and Photoshop. Yes, I know, it sounds strange to hear that you can use Flash for concept art, but I have found it to be very flexible for my personal workflow. I am able to retain the vector lines and shapes at a high resolution, which I can export to any DPI and take to my other painting programs.
Here are some concept paintings steps, from Flash (Vector).
This is my first concept design of 2014. Something I worked on for the new years day. I created this with Sketchbook Pro. It’s a simple idea for a project I hope to pitch this year to an interested party.
A Concept I worked on over the weekend. It was a long one, with Kids coughing and throwing up, once they went down for a nap, I sat down next to them and drew just to clear my mind. I suppose I was hunting for the illusive sleep…
Here are some earlier BW drawings
