I’m fond of olde time tattoos sailors used to get. Stuff with text on it. I’ve been obsessed with hell lately, so the Good vs. Bad theme made sense.
Joe said he’d tattoo his emoji on his leg. I replied, that’s a commitment. I should design the tattoo. So I went at it, illustrating something worthy of being burned onto someone’s skin.
It tickles me when people use my art, so I sent Joe a T-shirt with his noggin’ on it. Now, he can wear his face on his chest. What a conversation starter.
We all wear different masks. Son, father, friend, foe. Today I get to be George, Mark, Joel, Steven, Tom. Oh decisions, decisions.
Why did I decide to draw Joe? I guess because he has all these pouty faces on his instagram feed. He looked like an emoji. It wouldn’t be a challenge to turn his face into a circle.
There are some illustrations that I wanted to redo, to see how far I’ve come over the years. I generally draw people who use my art as their profile pic.
This art is making me sad. I was staring at Mark’s emoji. It told me to put more shading and include a large shiny tear.
I see George running around the lake all the time. Didn’t I just see him in SMILF? Anyway, I asked if he would like an emoji and the reply was, go for it.
Mr. Nice Guy. I was surprised whenĀ Mark took a screenshot of my video to use as a profile pic. He was the first person to start a game ofĀ Frivia – Make FriendsĀ with me, so I had to repay his support with an Emoji.
Iām designing a bunch of Emojis for a game Iām making. I illustratedĀ Steven and decided to make Emojis of his friends who would play my game.
I have to design a bunch of Emojis for a game Iām making, so I asked yāall for photos of your cat to be my muse.
I have to design a bunch of Emojis for a game Iām making, so I figured Iād solicit your feline housemate as my muse for character design.
I adoreĀ StevenĀ and Iām using him as bait to get his friendĀ AlexanderĀ to come out of hiding. I miss their fun frolicking posts.
At work, I run the Sound Game. I play a sound, you guess it, you get a point. Anyway,Ā MajaĀ was the 2017 champ and the prize was an illustration.
I need to reboot this drawing project. 2017 was not the year of new illustrations. Upside, the distance gave me time to rethink what I wanted to do and get better at some things, like shading.
Had a moment to change out the Tiny Gallery with a retrospective of my illustrations to date.
Dia De Los Muertos. Who needs Halloween, when you have the alternative?
Itās been awhile since Iāve completed an illustration. Thought Iād draw someone without a beard.
An old man walked past my garage and said, āHope you get the advertising you want for your business here.
I had a late start to a new year. I finally found some time to update the Tiny Gallery.
