Acrylic Paintings

 1.) I don't have a title for it so I'll just call it The Rocker Girl. This was an experiment with the background. I have been researching new techniques and experimenting– by combining different thing all at once to create something special. So far I am happy with the results, but they still needs more..

2) This is a diptych of two different forces good and evil on the same level, down and out.
For the most part these two are done. I just need to add some small details... Also for some reason the green in the jacket and the red skin isn't that bright, the scanner was being strange? Anyway enjoy!!

Study

I used to draw monsters and the bizarre when I was a kid (though theses are a bit cute-sy for me). I've been trying to tap back into it. I have to say it was fun!

 Sketches = Fun!

Old man

Sorry I haven't posted much lately. I had a series of tragedies in my life all in one weekend, and then it was my Birthday....Yaaay, not really.. 

Anyway here is a digital sketch/painting of an old man.

I should have a good amount of sketches and paintings coming up this month. I'll post my work as soon as my life settles down.

respect all life, Take care,

Late night sketching.. Not a big fan of portraits etc. but I gave it a go. I have to say it was a challenge, but I did enjoy it.

For the past couple of weeks I've been drawing and painting (in acrylics) some weird but funny characters. I had one that I liked so much I did a digital painting of it. Here it is, enjoy.

P.S. I'll post the acrylic paintings when I can, at the moment I don't have access to a scanner.

Backside event

This is just a view before the show got going. As I recall this little shop/gallery got even more jam packed after the music acts started.

Tony, on the left obviously, one of the three Owners of Backside

From Left to right: Daniel from the band What Hands Are For, Cody Jones owner of Anchor eighty four records, and one of the more friendly art/music goer's Pete.

I believe our first musical act of the night was Rob Roy, an insanely awesome Hip Hop artist, and a genuine dude.

Rob sits and reads a book in between verses to let the beat ride out. One of my favorite parts.

The second Music act What Hands Are For

 Daniel lead vocals tore it up

 This is my favorite photo, I love the contrast between the screaming girl on the left and the screaming bass player on far right. Its as if  the bass player was mocking the crazed fan.

And then there was me

Up close pictures of my art work from this show are available on earlier posts.

A little while ago I was involve with a music/art show in LA I have been meaning to post these. Here are some photos taken at the show I was involve with at Backside in LA

Cartoons! Bam!

 I was given a set of Prismacolor pens as a gift from a friend a while back, and I had been feeling a bit guilty I hadn't been using them.. For the past week I have been using my pens on some of my sketches. These are but a few. More to come, enjoy –T.J.

Sketches and Studies

Here is some more Work/ Sketches/ studies I did over the winter holiday.. 

Above : I generally just wanted to do a bunch of characters in different positions. This was really fun to do.

Below : For the past few months I have been saving clothing catalogues and using the models in them as a reference it is free and it is a good way to develop ones skills......enjoy 

Digital...

It's been a while since I have posted anything. Here are some digital paintings that I did over my winter break. I was trying new techniques.. There will be more to come.– enjoy T. J.
