Here’s something awesome, I had some of my artwork show up as the cover art for the album “Seafood EP” by Antonie Caesar. Below is what the album art looks like along with an awesome article about the artist.



This next bit comes courtesy of Really Really Big Records, Antoine Caesar’s Seafood EP. This offering is a bit of a break from RRBR’s usual offering of warm prog; instead, they have opted to get their feet wet in the realm of techno (No worries, they will still kick out that progressive stuff that you might happen to know and, if you know it, love). Anyways, three tracks; Live Lobster, Seafood, and a remix of Seafood by Aneuria. Nautical puns will ensue.

Here’s a work in progress I’m playing around with. Digging the colors, but I want to find something to add to the background, give it a little bit more texture.

Ummm... time for a brain storming session...

Today we’re launching a new Sketchy Pictures site! Announcing Sketchy Pictures 3.0!

So what’s new? Well we’re switching web hosting providers for one. I’ve been having lots of problems with my last hosting plan, some of you may have noticed a lot of downtown with the site. After several months of going back and forth with the previous hosting provider and getting no results I decided to jump ship. So if you notice any problems while visiting please bare with me while I get everything situated.

What else is new...TUTORIALS! I’ve been getting lots of buzz from my tutorials so I’ve decided to add a few more for all you hungry for more information. Along with old favorites I’ve also added a Nuke and Cinema 4d section.

I’ve gone through and re-organized my site so hopefully it’ll make it easier to get around and find what you’re looking for. I’ve also fixed a few broken links and images.

There are lots of new and cool features so come on in and checkout what’s new!

Started working on some new 3d models for a new motion graphic, so far totally diggin’ the new stylized look! I like the “claymation” or “vinyl toy” look to this one. I have some simple animations going on as well so it should come out pretty neat!
