Chimera

The mythical Chimera, a creature with lion and goat heads, and a snake for a tail.

For my version of the chimera I thought it would be funny to give each of the animals their own personality (rather than just making all of them look menacing). With a stupid screaming goat, an angry lion, and an aloof snake it seems like the makings of an Odd Couple style buddy comedy.

Digital Sketches

Lately I’ve been playing with doing sketches in Photoshop without drawing them out on paper first.  It’s actually a bit freeing for me because I’m not so precious with the drawings as I am when they are on paper.  Yes – I am so cheap that I don’t even like wasting sketchbook paper on bad sketches (hopefully these aren’t that bad though).

I started out doing a few figure drawings of women because, frankly, I’m not very good at drawing women-

 

                 

Then I did a couple of animal sketches – because they are fun-

               

A Rodin sculpture and Dirty Harry (strangely, these seem somewhat related)-
