Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Commission

 I was commissioned through a Comic Book Commission website I use to create this image of the 1980's icons the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

This was a fun project to draw because I love the characters, each one has a unique attitude and look and bringing that out in a black and white pinup was a challenge.

You can see at the bottom I do thumbnails for clients to approve and then move into a graphite stage and then the full inks.

Storyboards for BEAU commercial

I was asked to storyboard the first commercial for BEAU. We are making this in hopes to use BEAU as a production company for all of the Broadview school network. We are really hoping it takes off and works. Fingers Crossed everyone!!

BEAU First Official Comic Book

The first official comic book  came out from BEAU this week.

I am so very excited about this... This is the first comic book I ever produced and it turned out brilliantly!

I built the comic under a new title of DEAN Comics and I am Editor in chief (of course). I have never put together a comic book and was so excited to get it completed!

The art comes from the "12 x12 A Comic Book Competition" that we put on last year in coop fashion with the Salt Lake Comic Con. It has great art from the public and from the students at BEAU.

If you would like to purchase one please let me know, they are only a dollar and all proceeds go to an event to help the students.

I'm an editor!

Merry Christmas Chalkboard

At my day job at O.C.Tanner, I am asked to do all types of creative things, recently they have asked me to design one side of one of our chalkboards. Even though this wasn't a huge job, I found it a challenge and had fun figuring out how to create this image with very limited materials.

Homework 5 Returned

Well this is it! The returned art with comments. They is a saying when you are being reviewed "it is best when they have nothing to say at all." It means you have done such a good job they find no fault.

On my last critique there wasn't much to say at all.. the pencils had a few comments, the inks only 2 and the colors had no comments at all on it (so I didn't post).

That is a great sign I did great work.
