Owl Lineup

This was a design idea at work that didn't get approved but I liked how it came out. I thought they would be cool as stickers or maybe on a t-shirt. Anyways, they were a lot of fun to draw/design and even though we didn't go ahead with the idea, I wanted to give them an appearance on the blog.

Zombie Girl Sketchcard

It feels so good to do art for myself. To be honest, the day this card was made, I stayed home sick from work. I couldn't help it; even with a running nose, that "itch" to create was still there.

This is an original Artist Trading Card sized at 2.5" x 3.5" The medium used was marker, color pencil, ink and acrylic paint for the background.

Zombie Girl is for sale; taylorsmith03@hotmail.com



***SIDE NOTE***

I'm really enjoying Bobby Chiu's new book, "The Perfect Bait." The information and wisdom shared has been amazing so far. HIGHLY recommend to the artist or designer looking to advance in their career (goals, dreams, skills, etc.) Right now, until the end of March, the audio version of the book is on sale for a generously low price at Schoolism.

Threadless T-Shirt Submission

New T-shirt design up for voting at Threadless.com

If you have an account set up at their site, it only takes a couple seconds to give it a vote. Careful though! My disclaimer is that voting on T-shirt designs is like eating potato chips... you can't just have one! By that I mean it's easy to vote for one, and then two, and then thirteen. But it is a lot of fun to see what people are creating over there. :) Good stuff, homie!

Zombie Pinup

I've been having a lot of fun with Adobe Illustrator, lately. This is the colored version to the pencil sketch I posted last month.

Enjoy!

Zombie Pinup

This is rough drawing I did at work for a zombie pinup design. We didn't use this for the final design but I'll still finish it in Adobe Illustrator and make a t-shirt design out of it. There's still a few things to add to it and I'll change the eyes too.

Well, it's three weeks and counting for the big San Diego Comic Convention! It's a great place for inspiration, meeting new people and getting feedback on your art. But most of all, I'm really looking forward to seeing my friends from Legoland and Studio 2nd Street again!

Happy 4th, everyone!
