All Together Now: A Tribute to the Beatles art show

  • by

Last Saturday, I, along with my LMU schoolmate Laura Robinson, attended the opening reception for the All Together Now: A Tribute to the Beatles art show over at Gallery Nucleus. I first heard about the show through Brigette Barrager’s blog, where she posted up “Fab Four,” her piece for the show. I was in love as soon as I saw it. Her depiction of the Beatles in her vintage Little… Read More »All Together Now: A Tribute to the Beatles art show

The origin of vaginas is a bloody one, indeed

  • by

We conclude our series of Fox TV Animation art show posts with the third collaboration between me and Andrew Dowis. To start, it is a popular choice among art show participants to submit fanart of our three shows – that is, “Family Guy,” “American Dad,” and “The Cleveland Show.” The Origins art show was unique in that it forbade the submission of these works, and encouraged participants to submit works… Read More »The origin of vaginas is a bloody one, indeed

Tiny Show

  • by

I’m a fan of Flick user cigcardpix and his collection of vintage trading cards. You may remember him from my Flower Girl #4 entry, in which I referred to one of his Liebig card scans for my piece for the The Art of the Ad show. Ever since that was completed, I had been wanting to do another painting based off one of his cards, but never had the time… Read More »Tiny Show

“Family Guy” meets “Paradise Kiss”

The Winter Charity Art Show of 2010 was the same as the previous year’s with no theme. I was on a “Paradise Kiss” kick at the time, and I thought it would be cool to see Lois as Yukari Hayasaka. So I grabbed an image of the major characters off the net, and put a “Family Guy” spin to it on a 5-inch square piece of animation paper. What a… Read More »“Family Guy” meets “Paradise Kiss”

My failed attempt at a Canete drawing

  • by

The walls of the “American Dad” conference room were plastered with all sorts of freaky things on Friday, May 7, 2010. Perhaps the lack of sleep was causing me to hallucinate skeletons, monsters, and Siamese twin rabbits in places where they shouldn’t be; literally, I did not sleep the night before. Or maybe it was because the Freak Show was going on. My piece was this tribute to “A Dance… Read More »My failed attempt at a Canete drawing

Winter Charity Art Show ’09

  • by

Next in this series of Fox TV Animation art show posts is the comic “Pollock,” formerly titled “Rejected Works of the Masters Comic.” It is the second collaborative effort between me and my friend Andrew Dowis, the first of which can be found here. Back when I was deciding on what to do for the “Works of the Masters” show, I turned to Andrew on the possibility of doing another… Read More »Winter Charity Art Show ’09

Salutations and a blast from the past

  • by

Ever notice how when you wait for everything to be perfect before doing something, you almost always never do it? It happened to me when I opened this website in May last year. I told myself that I would wait until I had designed this space to my liking before sharing it with the rest of the world. I’m sure you can figure out what became of that plan. Truth… Read More »Salutations and a blast from the past

“Family Guy” art show comic

On Friday, June 12, I submitted the above comic for the “Family Guy” art show, themed Great Moments in History. The strip was a collaborative effort between me and my friend, Andrew Dowis. Andrew was the first and only person that came to mind for writing for my submission, since his sense of humor practically mirrors that of the show. That, and I knew I wouldn’t be able to pull… Read More »“Family Guy” art show comic
