Hotpot Austin Goomoji

The Google Hotpot team needed a cowboy hat and text for their Austin icon.  Credit to Susie Sahim for letting me accessorize her Goomoji character!

Logo process

I've been working on a logo for the past few weeks and thought I'd share some process.  When I make vector art, I break it down by pencil sketch, Photoshop painting, and then Illustrator final.  The more detailed I can get in the earlier stages, the less I'll have to figure out in Illustrator later.  Plus drawing and Photoshop are just more fun.

Alley

Beginning of a storyboard sequence...

SFO Self Portrait

Flight was delayed for a few hours at SFO.  On the bright side, I did a nice little sketch that captured my feelings in the window reflection.

For serious.

Working on my painting style...  I like the look of digital sketches and will probably try to progress with using unique brushes and textures in the future.

Arroz con Pollo

Cover and back for buddy's mixtape... The A.V.E!  Great local talent. When he becomes famous, maybe I can ride in his plane.

Peg Men


Users of Google's Street View feature (on Google Maps) might be familiar with "Pegman," the yellow icon who appears on the street to guide you through the mapped world. On holidays and special occasions, Google has been known to put out special Pegmen for users to find. For example, you can find some at LEGOLAND and Whistler for the Vancouver Olympic games.


Anyway, here are some of the Pegmen I've done.

**Note: Big thanks to Brad "The Beard" Bossard for modeling the base for #6 aka US Open Peg (and the 3D for ALL the other Pegmen) and Ryan "George Lucas" Germick for designing the original Pegman!!!

I need a montage


I love sketches! Sometimes I feel they can capture what hours of painting cannot...

Come hither / stay there.


Character sketch. I haven't decided if she summoning or pointing. Maybe both. I am having fun playing with the dress shape. I'm toying with the idea of a wider cloth shape instead of the tapering fabric-tentacles. We'll see.

Also, a glowing hand might make for a more interesting image... give her a bit more mysticism, eh? Heh.
