Paintball Pin Up
A paintball pin up drawing birthday gift for a friend. I may clean up this drawing and color it to produce a limited run of stickers.
Battle Chasers Red Monkia
Red Monkia – Pistol wielding charming outlaw from Joe Madureira’s Battle Chasers.
Joe Madureira’s art is a major reason why I started reading the X-Men comic books as a kid. His style has so much movement and when he drew characters they seemed to be more solid and more expressive. They reminded me more of animation, which I loved, then any other comic art I had seen at the time.
I’m not much for video games but I’m tempted to try Battle Chasers: Nightwar firstly because it looks amazing and secondly to final see his comic book characters move.

Champagne Poster – Happy New Year!
Champagne to celebrate the New Year!
This is the second drinks poster I designed. I plan to make a 3rd to finish off the set.
Happy New Year everyone!
Be good to yourself, be kind to others, make things, share things, be patience.

Life Drawing Session with Burlesque Performer Miss Jane Doe
Last week I had the pleasure of doing a surprise teaching session at Covert Characters with the always fierce and fabulous Miss Jane Doe burlesque performer. I hope the many first timers that joined us had an enjoyable introduction to sketching from life!
Dr Sketchy’s Oct Session with BAM BAM
Last month’s Dr Sketchy’s session featured the unique and beautiful performer and event-maker, BAM BAM. She was like a cocktail of Rock n Roll danger, sideshow humour with burlesque grace.
One of my drawing (Her reclining in the “Eyes”costume) ended up winning the art book prize “Metamorphosis 1&2″from the our hosts BeinArt Gallery. I’d like to think it was meant as lovely early birthday present.

#Inktober2016 Day 22 – Succubus
Night demon, powerful enchantress, seductress, dream visitor.
I recorded inking this drawing so hopefully I will be able to share a video soon.
Life Drawing with Erik Vent
I really enjoy the variety of models and themes we are treated to at Covert Characters. Last week we had the privilege to draw the very handsome model, Erik.
For those who are curious I do all of my life drawing on a A3 sketch pad, primarily with a black Polychromos Faber-Castel pencil. I then photograph the pages and collect the images together in photoshop.
Return of Dr. Sketchy’s!
After over a year long break Dr. Sketchy’s Melbourne is back! Although no longer monthly and in a new venue it is just as fun and friendly as ever. “The Homage to the Hiney” had 3 bootylicious performers showing off what they got – Frankie Valentine , Miss Jane Doe and Bella De Jac.
Unfortunately we arrived late (my fault, my friends had to pick me up from the train) so we sat on the floor and to the side. So all of my sketches are from this unusual view point. And this meant I was only able to see one of the models during the longer poses.
