Sexy Ink 13 Jan 10, 07:01:00

This was in an earlyer post but after editing my blog i decided to give it its own..

my mind is allover the place today. 27 Jul 09, 04:07:00

This is 06, but i touched it up prior to scanning it. This is 04, i can tell because it says so in the top right.

my psycohlogist is a Jungian 26 Jul 09, 11:07:00

I stoped drawring this shit once I got the internet back on...

Time of my life 26 Jul 09, 11:07:00

This may have to be explained (which means it isnt any good): Its an arm with lips and toung, having pills poured into its mouth. do you get it now? I had to explain it on Deviant, and thats fellow srtists. Oh, I had the time of my life...

shopped! shopped! 25 Jul 09, 08:07:00

This was srribbled on the back of one of my lecture pads, id say circa 2006, its had the curves adjusted to get the background white. This is a detail of mixing up, after some cropping and curves adjustment.

Hand Maid 19 Jul 09, 06:07:00

more female masterbation... Im going to have to animate her one of these days.

Penthouse for sale 19 Jul 09, 06:07:00

I did this back in college and it didnt make the cut for the final project, why Im posting it is because the penthouse of the building pictured is on the market. ofcorse it looks better than my drawring here. for those fellow texta enthusiasts, this was done entirely with a TRIA process black. BTW: when I was at jacksons the other day I was informend that they are nolonger stocking tria's :(

Suzie 18 Jul 09, 08:07:00

Suzie. this was the first chick to ever let me draw her naked (circa 1999)

Pool Comp: the flyer they didnt want you to see 18 Jul 09, 08:07:00

this was done with a whiteboard marker that was on its last leggs. I love using markers that are near death, flogging the last drop of ink out of them. I love new juicy textaz too...

Friends I never see 18 Jul 09, 07:07:00

I thought I had already added young lesn here: This tries to recapture the scene when lesn was passed out on my couch at my 21st(we stuck a screwdriver in his ear, then hadcuffed him to the couch) Marcus here does not smoke pot. he just gonna bug you for a cone. (this is one of the few times I have tried to draw with a ball point pen. horrible things they are)

Gabriel 17 Jul 09, 06:07:00

Before anyone comments that here tits are uneven, id like to point out that her TITS ARE UNEVEN. (its the only sure way to tell if there real without tasting them)

17 Jul 09, 05:07:00

these two are from aroud the same time (a time when I was using a green pen for notes at uni). Im so glad i finaly got clean

My love of ink... 16 Jul 09, 11:07:00

this is ment to be a self portrait from when I still had a beard. We all loved the beer angel. The typical Juliette Lewis lokalike I always draw.

look for Oscar 16 Jul 09, 11:07:00

This started life as some ink spots tah bled thru from the page above, a friend challenged me to make a Dot-to-dot and it resulted in this dude. I like this, the main reason is because I forgot to put 'R' in colour, but I still remembered the 'U', which is more than some people not looking at anyone in particular AMEICA.

cartenz with a K 30 Jun 09, 11:06:00

This is rare, to find a piece this old of mine--and for it to have carten spelled with a K!. Even though it isnt artisticaly any good, it desreves its own post for its rareity.

Old grafitti 28 Jun 09, 10:06:00

Here are a couple of scetches from back in the 90's when I still thought this was cool: There are stories behind both, but I cannot be arsed telling them, I just wanted that chick to nolonger be the first post. I may edit this at a later date. And today is that later date. Its a lie, there are not sotries to them both. only one has a story, the other is a work of non fiction. guess which one has a story behind it? go on, dare ya!... the latter was part of a large sheet that ended up becoming home made "acid". Dont ask.

When... Somthing... Something... lost its fun-- 27 Jun 09, 04:06:00

--You're fuckin learning!. EDIT: Bite my lips and close my eyes, take me away from peering eyes... somthing somthing somthing somthing somthing somthing. Some-thing something somthing, some-thing something somthing. you know it would be easyer just to google the words to greenday. Is it important to note that this is not the only pic of female masterbation on this blog?

Towser! 27 Jun 09, 04:06:00

I drew this whilst he was still alive. I cant wait to own a house so I can have a dog again. somtimes ink isnt sexy, sometimes its sad.

I like ink! 26 Jun 09, 11:06:00

Here is another pic of Suzie... This one is just some Graff that got a bit crazy...

Frogs 26 Jun 09, 12:06:00

The frogs were another Art College project, heres the rough and below is what it looked like after being put into illustrator. because I was still learning vectors and wasnt satisfied with the generic vector look. So i printed out the illustrator image and touched it up by hand. you live you learn.

Old stuff for the spindle of backups, Part 2 (Ink) 19 Jun 09, 11:06:00

Some of therse are already on Deviant, but not yet here: This is ment to be a pic of me and Suzie mixing up in an abandon house in maylands (again circa 1999) Eric and Slugger, the women wenrt realy there--but if you knew them guys then you would already know that (circa 2000) This was part of a larger work that I may or may not still own??? (circa 1998)

Texas George: Where art thou? 19 Jun 09, 09:06:00

Back at Murdoch I put together a porject called "Texas George", The Iraq war was going on (it still is isnt it?), George Bush John Howard were sending us to a war we didnt want and I thought it apt that I do my multimedia assignment as a cartoon satire on George the second.... Anyway here is some of the original drawrings from the design proposal we put together (when I find the disk with the animation on it i'll post that):

Go forth and multiply 23 Apr 09, 12:04:00

words of wisdom to never forget. Its amazing the lesons you learn from the people you learn them from. When I was in rehab this guy taught me alot about self

Badly drawn girls 09 Mar 09, 02:03:00

None of these were good enough to post I thought, but I had some drafts saved from earlyer in the year so I figure if I post these images on one of them, they still get to be on the site, just not in a high traffic area.
