SATF original sketches




me, grant, nick, and chris will be including original sketches for a limited supply of spider and the fly books. They'll be numbered and signed. The ones above are my contribution to the stock - it'll be neat to see the other guys! they'll be in an envelope, so you'll randomly get a drawing (can't pick) - but i think that adds to the appeal to it... everyone's sketch will be different if they opt for the limited ones.

we'll be selling these at wondercon this year - we have a booth!!!! but we got a limited supply :( i know a few of you can't make it but want me to hold a copy - i might not be able to do that just because of our low stock, but i'll see what i can do post wondercon in getting you a copy!

here's one of the pages from my section - i think grant, nick, and chris may have posted similiarly on their blogs:

Spider and the Fly

So this upcoming wondercon, a group of friends and I have put together a book! What started out as casual conversation during our brunches at GoldenCoffee Diner has turned into a really fun project for us all.

Grant Alexander
Nick Stohlman
Chris Carman

these guys are awesome, and a hoot to hangout with. We went through a list of themes and all decided to do something with Spider and the Fly, each putting in our own interpretation.

Here's the book cover! Hope you guys pick it up!

painting on the iPhone! on the TRAIN!

I got this new cool app on the iPhone called BRUSHES :) and it lets you paint and sketch on the iphone. Wow finger painting galore! I took it for a test run on the train to and from work - shakey shakey choo choo train!


Train trip 1


Train trip 2

I love it to death :D but i gotta say - it's hard for me to draw and paint because i have nails (i play guitar), so i cant use the tip of my fingers :( i end up using the meaty part of my finger or my thumb to paint and it's the funniest thing - i can't see where i paint :D and sometimes it just comes out as a big blob in the wrong spot (most of the time :P )

This painting took two train trips to finish (2 hrs total).

I've seen some crazy cool kickass paintings from other artists with this app :) cant wait to do more!

A couple in class demos



It was the last day of class so i brought my laptop in to finish up some final work for the students. Happened to demo a couple quick sketches for them in photoshop as well.

It was quite fun - 3 - 5 minutes just to show the students that you can design by just blotting down shapes and pushing and pulling shapes in and out.

*sniff* i gotta admit, i really enjoyed hanging around with them every saturday. all of them improved so much since the first day. am gonna miss them.
